Cherry Angioma

Cherry angiomas are small, red-to-purple skin growths that commonly appear with age. While they are harmless, they can be cosmetically bothersome for some. Our clinic offers a gentle, effective solution for removing cherry angiomas using BroadBand Light (BBL) and Sciton ClearV lasers, providing non-invasive treatment with minimal discomfort.

Who Gets Cherry Angiomas?

Cherry angiomas are common in adults, especially from age 40 onwards. By the age of 75, approximately 75% of people have developed cherry angiomas. They are more noticeable on lighter skin but can affect individuals of all skin tones.

What Causes Cherry Angiomas?

The exact cause remains unclear, although some genetic factors and mutations (such as in the GNAQ and GNA11 genes) have been linked. While they are a natural part of aging, cherry angiomas may sometimes appear in response to hormonal changes, pregnancy, or very rarely, underlying health conditions.

Why Choose Laser Treatment for Cherry Angioma Removal?

Our clinic offers laser-based treatments for cherry angioma removal with BBL and Sciton ClearV technologies, which are designed to target and break down blood vessels in the angiomas without affecting surrounding skin.

Benefits of Laser Treatment:

Non-Invasive: No incisions or surgical procedures.
Quick Sessions: Treatments are brief, often completed within 45 minutes.
Adjustable for Skin Types: Our lasers can be customised for different skin tones.
Proven Results: Most patients experience visible improvements after just a few sessions.

Treatment Process and Aftercare

During Treatment

The laser delivers targeted light to break down the blood vessels within the cherry angioma, causing it to fade gradually. Most patients experience only a mild warming sensation, and protective eyewear is provided.

Aftercare

A gentle skincare routine and sun protection are recommended post-treatment to support healing. Mild redness may occur but usually subsides quickly.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

How Many Sessions Are Needed?

Visible results are often achieved within one or two sessions, though a series of three sessions is recommended for best results.

Do Treated Cherry Angiomas Return?

Once removed, cherry angiomas typically do not grow back. However, new angiomas may appear over time as part of the natural aging process.

Why Are Cherry Angiomas Common with Aging?

These vascular growths are commonly associated with aging, though their exact cause is not fully understood.

How Long Does Each Treatment Last?

Sessions typically last up to 45 minutes, depending on the number of cherry angiomas being treated.

Will New Cherry Angiomas Form After Treatment?

BBL and Sciton ClearV effectively treat current angiomas but do not prevent new ones. Regular skin check-ups are advised to monitor any new growths.
