“Laser treatment to Cherry Angiomas immediately. We use a long pulsed Nd:Yag laser for this and I would anticipate removal of these in one session with no real issues.
Commence Obagi Nu-Derm immediately for the reduction in hyperpigmented areas. The system is a combination treatment of 4% Hydroquinone and tretinoin and should be used for a minimum of 6-12 months. As we discussed, this will cause initial redness and flaking, as both active ingredients are irritating to the skin.
I have several cherry angiomas on my torso, arms, and legs. (4 large ones, 12 medium ones, dozens of small ones, and countless pin-point sized ones.). One of the large ones is bothering me, so I'd like to have it removed. While I'm at it, I'll remove as many of the others as possible.
How does it work? Will a dermatologist schedule time with me and use their laser or electric needle to remove as many as they can during that time?
cause and treatment??? linked to other diseases?

Hello,
Campbell de Morgan spots are also called cherry angiomas. The underlying cause for the development of cherry angiomas is not understood, so nothing can be predicted about their prevention but rest assured; they are harmless. If they are to be removed for cosmetic reasons, electrosurgery and cryosurgery can be used. More recently pulsed dye laser or Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) treatment are also used.
Japanese researchers found that cherry angiomas were associated with oxidative stress. Excessive oxidative stress can damage DNA and cause mutations in cells. Consuming a diet containing antioxidants to improve your immune system and avoiding pollutants and chemicals in the environment helps to prevent and combat this.
Hi,
This seems to be cherry angiomas, from the description that you give, though nothing can be said with surety without having a look at the lesions.
Cherry angiomas are benign , fairly common skin growths that vary in size. They can occur almost anywhere on the body but usually develop on the trunk.
They are most common after age 40. The cause is unknown. Although painless and harmless, cherry angiomas may bleed profusely if injured.

Hello,
I cannot confirm anything without examination but it can be due to cherry angiomas,folliculitis,contact dermatitis,sweat dermatitis or dermatitis. Cherry angiomas are made up of clusters of tiny capillaries at the surface of the skin, forming a small round dome ("papule"), which may be flat topped.
When they first develop, they may be only a tenth of a millimeter in diameter and almost flat, appearing as small red dots.Pls don’t worry as they are harmless.
I have just recently noticed that I have what appear to be cherry angiomas on my trunk, breasts and a few on my thighs. If I look very, VERY closely at my inner arms I can see what appear to be almost microscopic pin-***** looking red spots, which I am assuming are the same small lesions that I have elsewhere.
I am a 29-year-old white female and have had 2 pregnancies/2 live births. I have also been on and off birth control over the years, most recently getting off of the pill (Yaz) 1.

I have had cherry angiomas since i can remember. I have few (3-4)big ones near my breast and on my abdomen. but last year I had a lots of pin pricked red dots on my both arms. I did not bother about them then, but they have become more prominent now and people have started noticing them. Since last few days I am monitoring them and I feel like there are new ones each day. I saw a dermatologists and she said that they are angiomas and not to worry.
I have several of these cherry angiomas on my scalp, most are big and stick out so I have to tell hairdressers about them so they will not scrape them with their brushes or fingernails. They have never bled or itch but they sure do get on my nerves because my hair is getting thinner, yay :( and I can see these bright red bumps. Im sure thinning hair ***** for everyone but when your a woman its ***** even more. Mine is hereditary.
If you are seeing some cherry angiomas, they likely are harmless- but there are situations and times when they are cause for concern- like if they are changing, itching, hurting, bleeding, etc. They are fairly common in people over 30. To discuss removal options, it's best to see your doctor. Hope that helps!
Hello,
Sorry replied to an earlier post first. It can be due to blood blister or small cherry angiomas.

It can also be due to cherry hemangiomas. Cherry angiomas are made up of clusters of tiny capillaries at the surface of the skin, forming a small round dome ("papule"), which may be flat topped.
