BLOOD SPOT (CHERRY ANGIOMA) REMOVAL
PRICE: FROM £55
Blood Spots, or Cherry Angiomas, are common skin growths that can develop on most areas of your body. They’re also known as Senile Angiomas or Campbell de Morgan spots. The collection of small blood vessels inside a cherry angioma give them a reddish appearance.
This type of skin growth is typically not a cause for concern unless it bleeds often or changes in size, shape, or colour. Talk to your doctor if you notice any bleeding or changes in appearance.
A Cherry Angioma is often bright red, circular or oval in shape, and small — usually ranging in size from a pinpoint to a few millimetres 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, legs, and shoulders. Bleeding can occur if the angioma is scratched, rubbed, or cut open.
The exact cause of red moles is unknown, but there may be a genetic factor that makes certain people more likely to get them.
Cherry Angiomas have been linked to pregnancy, exposure to chemicals, certain medical conditions, and climate. There also appears to be a link between cherry angiomas and age. They are usually found on people aged 30 and older.
DOES BLOOD SPOT (CHERRY ANGIOMA) REMOVAL HURT?
The treatment relatively painless and rarely requires any local anaesthetic. However, if the Cherry Angioma is large or you are concerned, a numbing cream can be applied before treatment. After treatment the skin left behind may be tender for a few days and will need to be covered. It is also best to use a strong sunscreen on the area.
IS BLOOD SPOT (CHERRY ANGIOMA) REMOVAL SAFE?
Cherry Angioma removal is completely safe and is only carried out by a qualified Aesthetician in a clinical environment. We work to strict protocols exceeding all regulatory and clinical requirements.

CAN I HAVE MY BLOOD SPOT (CHERRY ANGIOMA) REMOVED JUST BECAUSE I DON’T LIKE THE LOOK OF IT?

WHAT RESULTS WILL I SEE?
The treatment will completely remove your Cherry Angioma; however there will be a small white scar where the removal took place.
WILL THE BLOOD SPOT (CHERRY ANGIOMA) GROW BACK?
The treatment will permanently remove the Cherry Angioma. However, this will not stop Cherry Angiomas from growing back in other areas in the future.
WHAT ARE BLOOD SPOTS (CHERRY ANGIOMA)?
A Cherry Angioma is a mole-like skin growth made up of small blood vessels, or capillaries. It is the most common type of angioma.
Angiomas are benign tumours that result from an overgrowth of capillaries. Cherry angiomas most commonly appear in adults older than 30 years. These benign tumours are related to ageing and tend to increase in number as a person becomes older. They occur in up to 50 percent of adults.
