“This is a new treatment for infantile facial hemangioma”
This one is correct. The main "noun" per se is the 'facial hemangioma', and the word "infantile" is the adjective describing that noun. Since the adjective comes before the noun, the resulting sentence is the above one^^

Both are used in scholarly articles but the latter, i.e., facial infantile hemangioma, seems to have been used more than 3 times as much. So, it's probably safer to use that. Hope it helps.
