cherry angioma, also known as campbell de morgan spots

As shared in last week’s blog, Melasma treatments that do and do not work, many people turn to dermatologists for their skin care issues because of their perceived expert status in treating skin conditions. However, MedSpas and aesthetic service providers, like DermaTouch RN, often have proven success at treating skin conditions at a fraction of the price.  For example, Cherry Angiomas are frequently treated at DermaTouch RN.

What are Cherry Angiomas?

Cherry Angiomas are a proliferation of benign dilated blood vessels. Per Healthline.com, ” A cherry angioma is often bright red, circular or oval in shape, and small — ranging in size from a pinpoint to one-fourth of an inch in diameter. Some cherry angiomas appear smooth and even with your skin, while others appear slightly raised. They most often grow on the torso, arms, and shoulders.”

What Causes Cherry Angiomas?

The cause of cherry angiomas is unclear, though some studies show that they might be linked to climate, pregnancy, aging, and exposure to chemicals. They often occur in individuals 30 years of age and older, and after 30, often increase in size and number.

How do we treat Cherry Angiomas?

At DermaTouch RN, we treat Cherry Angiomas with our 532nm Aura Laser. The laser works by coagulating the blood, which temporarily turns the red spot darker. The body then absorbs the treated area, and the lesion disappears. This spot treatment causes little to no discomfort for patients with amazing results.

For more than a decade, DermaTouch RN has been treating skin conditions like cherry angiomas. Contact us today so we can help you remove cherry angiomas from your skin with the right combination of laser treatments. You’ll love the results!
