Hemangioma is a relatively common benign proliferation of blood vessel that primarily develops during childhood. It is a most common benign tumor of vascular origin is the region of head and neck. The common sites are lips, tongue, buccal mucosa, and palate in oral cavity. Due to aesthetic concern and appearance problems of the hemangioma of lower lip and face it requires appropriate management. This is a case report of a rare hemangioma of lower lip and face bilaterally with involvement of mandible, floor of mouth, oropharynx, anterior 2/3 rd of tongue parotid/submandibular glands in a 46-years-old female along the course of facial artery bilaterally with arterial feeders from the facial artery bilaterally, and draining into the jugular veins. This type of case is being reported first time in English literature.
