Cherry Angiomas
Cherry angiomas are mainly a cosmetic nuisance, although they can become irritated and bleed from trauma. If left alone, cherry angiomas will remain on the skin indefinitely. There is some evidence that family history and hormonal changes play a role in their development.

Frequently Asked Questions
Are cherry angiomas dangerous?
No, cherry angiomas are not dangerous. They can bleed if irritated or scratched.
Does treatment hurt?
Most people describe treatment as a small pin prick sensation that goes away quickly. Treatment is tolerated well by most people.
Does insurance cover treatment?
Unfortunately, no. Cherry angiomas are not harmful and insurance carriers do not cover treatment of these. We offer treatment pricing based upon the number and size of cherry angiomas.
Is there any downtime from treatment?
Most people experience a small scab where the angioma was immediately after treatment. That scab typically falls off in about a week. Very large angiomas may only shrink with a single session. These large angiomas often need more than one treatment to go away.
