Cherry Angioma Removal
Clearer Skin, One Spot at a Time.
Tired of those red dots stealing the spotlight? At Pur Aesthetics and Wellness in Granger, IN, we’ve got the technology—and the team—to show them out. Using advanced laser treatments, we target cherry angiomas safely, quickly, and without surgery. Every treatment is tailored to your skin for results that look great and feel even better.
What are Cherry Angiomas?
Cherry angiomas are small, benign (non-cancerous) skin growths made up of clusters of tiny blood vessels. They typically appear as bright red, round or oval spots and can develop anywhere on the body, especially on the trunk, arms, and shoulders.
They are:
- Usually small (less than a quarter-inch in diameter)
- Often dome-shaped and smooth to the touch
- More common with age or during pregnancy
- Completely harmless, but many choose to remove them for cosmetic reasons
Laser Methods for Cherry Angioma Removal
At Pur Aesthetics and Wellness, we use two leading-edge devices for cherry angioma removal.
Spectrum Lng Pulsed YAG: This laser delivers targeted energy directly into the blood vessels that feed the angioma. The heat causes these vessels to collapse and seal off, leading to the gradual fading of the lesion over time. It’s a fast and efficient treatment for each spot, often taking just minutes.
Aerolase Neo Elite: Utilizing proprietary 650-microsecond technology, this laser offers highly precise targeting with minimal discomfort. It safely penetrates the skin without harming surrounding tissue and is suitable for all skin types (including darker tones and tanned skin). The angioma absorbs the light, breaks down, and fades with little to no downtime.
These advanced laser treatments are FDA–approved, non-surgical, and performed in-office by our trained providers.
Cherry Angioma Removal Benefits
Safe for All Skin Types
All skin is welcome here. Aerolase treats every tone with power, precision, and care—because your skin deserves solutions that work beautifully, no matter its shade.
Quick and Painless Sessions
You don’t need to carve out hours of your day. Each lesion takes only a few minutes to treat. Most clients describe the sensation as a warm snap, similar to a rubber band.
Minimal to No Downtime
Most sessions are quick and easy, getting you back to your day without missing a beat. There’s no need to hide or recover at home.
No Scarring or Damage to Surrounding Skin
Older methods risked scarring or skin damage. Our lasers target only the angioma, sparing the skin around it for safer, cleaner results.
Non-Surgical, Needle-Free Option
No cuts. No stitches. No numbing injections required. Just clean, fast energy-based treatment that works below the surface.
Confidence in Clearer Skin
Whether it’s one bright red dot that grabs your attention every time you look in the mirror or several scattered across your torso, we can help you clear the canvas and love what you see.
Treatment Process: What To Expect
Before
It all starts with a personalized consultation. We take the time to assess your skin, evaluate your angiomas, and discuss your goals. Based on this, we’ll recommend the best laser for your skin type and develop a custom plan.
What to do before your appointment:
Avoid tanning or sun exposure for at least 1-2 weeks
Stop using retinoids or exfoliating products a few days before
Arrive with clean skin (no makeup or lotion on the treatment area)
During
We’ll cleanse the area and provide protective eyewear. Then, your provider will direct the laser energy to each angioma. You may feel a slight heat or snap, but discomfort is minimal. No needles or numbing are required for most clients.
Treatment duration: Typically 5-15 minutes, depending on the number of spots.
After
You might notice slight redness or swelling, but this usually subsides within a few hours. Treated angiomas often darken or crust before fading over the next few days to weeks.
Post-care tips:
Avoid sun exposure and wear SPF
Don’t pick at the area
Gently cleanse and moisturize
Results Timeline
Many clients notice visible fading within 7-10 days. Some lesions may require a follow-up session, especially larger ones, but most resolve fully after just one treatment.
Results are long-lasting, though new angiomas may form over time. Maintenance treatments can address any future spots.
Am I a Good Candidate for Cherry Angioma Removal?
You’re likely a great candidate if:
- You have small, red spots you want removed for cosmetic reasons
- You’re in good general health with no active skin infections
- You’re not currently pregnant or breastfeeding
- You aren’t taking photosensitizing medications
During your visit, we’ll carefully assess your skin, discuss your goals, and determine the best approach that’s both safe and effective.
Questions? We’ve Got Answers!
What is the best laser treatment for cherry angioma removal?
This depends on several factors, including your skin tone and the size, depth, and location of the angiomas. For deeper or clustered spots, we often use the Long Pulsed YAG. For more delicate, scattered, or superficial angiomas—especially on sensitive or darker skin—the Aerolase Neo Elite is typically the better fit. During your consultation, we’ll take a closer look and walk you through the best treatment option for your skin.
How effective is laser treatment for removing cherry angiomas?
Laser treatment is highly effective for cherry angioma removal. Most lesions respond after just one session. The treated angioma typically darkens and fades over time, leaving smoother, clearer skin behind.
Is cherry angioma laser removal safe for darker skin tones?
Yes. Our Aerolase Neo Elite is designed for all skin types, including darker complexions and tanned skin. It minimizes the risk of hyperpigmentation and safely targets the angioma without damaging the surrounding skin.
Can multiple cherry angiomas be treated at once?
Absolutely. Many clients have several angiomas treated in one appointment. Depending on the number and size of lesions, treatment is quick and highly efficient.
Does laser remove cherry angiomas permanently?
Treated angiomas usually do not return. However, new ones may develop over time due to genetics or aging. Maintenance treatments are available if future angiomas appear.
Will laser treatment for cherry angiomas affect my skin texture?
Laser treatment is highly precise and does not harm the surrounding skin, so texture changes are very unlikely. In fact, many clients notice smoother skin in the treated area after healing.
Are there risks or side effects?
Post-treatment, you may experience mild redness, minor swelling, or a temporary darkening of the treated spot. However, these side effects are typically short-lived. Rarely, there may be pigment changes, especially without proper aftercare. We’ll walk you through what’s normal and how to care for your skin for the best results.
Is cherry angioma removal covered by insurance?
Since cherry angioma removal is considered a cosmetic procedure, it’s typically not covered by insurance. We’ll provide transparent pricing and walk you through any package options or promotions during your consultation.
