Cherry angioma (cherry spot) removal in Flintshire
Cherry angiomas, also known as cherry spots or Campbell de Morgan spots, are common benign skin lesions made up of tiny blood vessels beneath the skin's surface. They appear as small red, dark red or purple spots and are commonly found on the chest, abdomen, arms, shoulders and legs.
Although harmless, cherry angiomas can become more noticeable over time and many people choose to have them removed for cosmetic reasons. At JL Clinical, I offer safe and effective cherry angioma removal using advanced electrolysis which instantly cauterises and removes the cherry angioma. Based in Hawarden, Flintshire, I welcome clients from Chester, North Wales and the surrounding areas seeking professional removal of unwanted cherry spots and vascular lesions.
What causes cherry angiomas?
The exact cause of cherry angiomas is not fully understood, but they are commonly associated with ageing and genetic factors. They often begin to appear from the age of 30 onwards and may gradually increase in number over time. Hormonal changes, pregnancy and certain medical conditions may also contribute to their development. While cherry angiomas are harmless and non-cancerous, they do not usually disappear without treatment.

What results can I expect?
Cherry angioma removal is a quick and effective treatment that can significantly improve the appearance of the skin. Following treatment, the lesion may appear darker or form a small scab as part of the normal healing process. Over the following days and weeks, the treated area gradually fades, leaving clearer skin. Larger or raised cherry angiomas may occasionally require more than one treatment session to achieve the best possible result.
