Abstract
The response of PGs to β blockers seems to be variable. Although topical timolol has the advantage of minimal adverse events, ease of administration, and better cosmetic outcomes, it's efficacy in PG may not be universal unlike in infantile hemangiomas. Topical timolol may be a treatment option in young children, incapacitated elderly, and over delicate areas like face, nails, and gums where invasive modalities are not desirable.
