LASER TREATMENTS
Cherry angioma laser treatment
Advanced Laser Removal of Cherry Angiomas
Cherry angiomas are common benign vascular skin lesions that can appear anywhere on the body and often become more noticeable with age. Using the medical-grade BIOTEC X-Lase Plus laser platform, this advanced laser treatment precisely targets these small vascular lesions, helping to improve overall skin clarity and create a smoother, more even appearance.
Treatment time
15–30 minutes
Downtime
Minimal
Course
1–3 treatments
Comfort
Brief warm snapping feeling
Suitable for most areas of the face and body, every treatment is tailored to your individual skin condition following a comprehensive consultation.
How It Works
Controlled laser energy is delivered directly to the cherry angioma, where it selectively targets the blood vessels within the lesion while preserving the surrounding healthy skin.
Over time, the treated angioma is naturally broken down and absorbed by the body, allowing the skin to heal with minimal disruption.
Treatment may help to:
- Reduce the appearance of cherry angiomas
- Improve overall skin clarity
- Create a more even skin tone
- Restore a smoother-looking skin surface
- Enhance the overall appearance of the treated area
Depending on the size and number of lesions, more than one treatment session may be recommended.
Expected Results
Following treatment, many clients notice:
- Reduced visibility of cherry angiomas
- Clearer, more even-looking skin
- Improved appearance of the treated area
- Smoother skin surface
- Increased confidence in their skin
Individual results vary depending on the size, depth and number of lesions treated.
Treatment time
Approximately 15–30 minutes, depending on the number and size of the lesions.
Comfort
The treatment is quick, non-invasive and generally well tolerated. Most clients describe the sensation as a brief warm snapping feeling against the skin.
Downtime
Minimal. Mild redness and slight swelling are common immediately after treatment. The treated angioma may temporarily darken or form a small crust before naturally healing over the following days.
Most clients are able to return to normal daily activities immediately.
Recommended treatment course
Many cherry angiomas respond well after a single treatment, although larger or multiple lesions may require 1–3 sessions for optimal cosmetic results.
If additional treatments are required, they are usually performed every 6–8 weeks.
