Capillary hemangioma

**Hemangioma** from the Greek “hemos” - blood and “angio” - vessel. Capillary hemangiomas are simple arterial and venous vascular tumors of the face. They are also called benign vascular growths. They appear due to the presence of a defect in the vascular wall.

Capillary hemangioma is a rare soft tissue lesion that is widespread among the population (about 60% of all skin tumors). The most common location is the face. It is noted that girls get sick twice as often as boys. Statistical studies have shown that the incidence of hemanginous formations on the face is on average 1 case in every 30,000
