Most hemangiomas are just left alone since they often shrink without any intervention. However, since this is on her forehead, it is advisable to do something about it. Steroids are usually the medication of choice, although surgery and laser can help. Propranolol is used for severe hemangiomas. Since what your baby has is more of a superficial one, then I don't think you would need it, especially at this young age. Most hemangiomas go away in a few weeks to months.
You may also want to ask a second opinion from another doctor on the right treatment.
Hope this helps.
