Smooth, Spot-Free Skin Starts Here
Do you have small, bright red spots on your skin that have appeared over time? Cherry hemangiomas, also known as cherry angiomas, are common benign skin growths that can develop anywhere on the body.
While harmless, these red spots can become bothersome, especially if they grow in size or increase in number.
At The Confidence Code Clinic in Edmonton, we offer advanced laser treatments to safely and effectively remove cherry angiomas, restoring clear and even-toned skin—without surgery or scarring.
What Are Cherry Hemangiomas & What Causes Them?
Cherry hemangiomas are clusters of tiny blood vessels that appear as small, round, red or purple spots on the skin. They are non-cancerous and typically painless but can become more noticeable with age.
Though harmless, some people choose to remove them for cosmetic reasons or if they frequently bleed due to friction.
Common Causes of Cherry Angiomas:
- Aging – Most common in adults over 30.
- Genetics – A family history increases the likelihood of developing them.
- Sun Exposure – UV damage can contribute to the appearance of new spots.
- Hormonal Changes – Pregnancy, birth control, and hormone fluctuations may trigger growth.
- Skin Trauma – Minor injuries or repeated friction may increase the likelihood of cherry angiomas forming.
