Two cases of parotid hemangioma in infants that involuted remarkably after treatment by compression using resin-splint and hand-maded skullcap are presented. In one case, hemangioma began reducing 2 weeks after compression therapy and involuted at one year and four months. In the other case, hemangioma enlarged temporarily, but it began to reduce just after remaking of splint and skullcap and completely involuted at eight months. In both cases there were no complications. We confirmed that compression therapy is a safe and effective modality for treating parotid hemangioma in infants.
