Cherry Hemangiomas

At SilkySkin Laser Center located in Portland, OR, we specialize in the nonsurgical removal of cherry hemangiomas using advanced, precise techniques. Our safe, effective treatments help restore smooth, clear skin with minimal downtime.

Cherry Hemangioma Removal Process

Cherry hemangiomas are noncancerous, red or purple growths that can develop on the skin. While they are typically harmless, many clients choose to remove them for cosmetic reasons. The removal process begins with a consultation, where our experienced team assesses the size and location of the hemangiomas.

Using the latest technology, such as laser or electrosurgical techniques, we precisely target the growths, ensuring minimal impact on surrounding tissue. During the procedure, the area may feel slightly warm, but discomfort is minimal.

After treatment, the skin may appear red for a short time, but this typically fades quickly. Each treatment is tailored to individual needs, ensuring optimal results. Depending on the size of the hemangioma, only one session may be required, although larger or more complex cases may require additional treatments. This process is quick and effective, providing clients with smooth, clear skin.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Are the results permanent?

Yes, the removal of cherry hemangiomas is typically permanent. Once treated, these benign growths are permanently removed, and they do not usually return. The laser or electrosurgical methods used are highly effective at targeting and destroying the blood vessels that form these growths, ensuring they don’t regenerate. However, it’s important to note that new cherry hemangiomas can occasionally develop over time, as they are influenced by factors like age and genetics. While treated growths won’t return, regular skin checks and maintenance are always recommended to monitor for new ones.
