Brief Summary
We plan to conduct a study, to see how safe and effective timolol maleate 0.5% gel-forming solution is for infantile hemangiomas (IH) and the response of hemangiomas to timolol maleate 0.5% . Our hypothesis is that timolol will inhibit and possibly reverse growth of appropriate infantile hemangiomas.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (2)
Change in size of hemangioma
At each visit, the size of the IH is assessed in three dimensions (length, width, and height) in cm.
Baseline, week 2, 4, 8, 12, 16
Change in color of hemangioma
At each visit, the color intensity (e.g., barely perceptible; pale pink or mottled pink/red; red with central pallor; dull red; bright red) of the IH is assessed on a 6 point scale.
Baseline, week 2, 4, 8, 12, 16
Secondary Outcomes (1)
Measure the extent of systemic absorption and the factors which influence absorption
week 2
Study Arms (1)
timolol maleate 0.5% gel
EXPERIMENTALtimolol gel 1 to 2 drops twice a day to lesions for 4 months
Interventions
Apply timolol gel 1-2 drops twice a day to lesion
