Background: Hemangiomas are benign vascular tumors. They can persist, and a small number increase over time, especially when located on exposed areas of the body such as the face. Surgical excision is the usual treatment option, and alternative methods may be used in patients with long-standing lesions.
Case report: The article describes the case of a 66-year-old man with a hemangioma on the forehead. The lesion had grown gradually over a period of 34 years and reached a size of approximately 1 cm in diameter. Surgical removal was recommended in 2020, but the intervention was postponed due to restrictions related to the COVID-19 pandemic. The patient was then treated with a patented chemical method developed by Dr. G. Dunkić. The hemangioma was completely removed in five treatments, with minimal scarring.
Conclusion: This case highlights the potential of chemical, non-invasive removal of hemangiomas using the method of Dr. G. Dunkić, which has been used since 1946, as an alternative to surgical excision.
