What is Cherry Angioma?


A cherry angioma is a small, benign (non-cancerous) skin growth made up of blood vessels. They’re typically:

  • Bright red, but can also be purple or even dark blue.

  • Smooth or raised, and may appear dome-shaped.

  • Usually small—ranging from a pinpoint to about a quarter inch in diameter.

  • Commonly found on the trunk, arms, and shoulders, though they can appear anywhere.

Key Facts:

  • Cause: Not fully understood, but they are linked to aging, genetics, and sometimes hormonal changes or exposure to certain chemicals.

  • Prevalence: Very common, especially in adults over 30.

  • Symptoms: Usually asymptomatic, but they can bleed if scratched or injured.

  • Treatment: Not necessary unless for cosmetic reasons or if they frequently bleed. Removal options include laser therapy, electrocautery, or cryotherapy.



You may be a good candidate if:

  • Your cherry angioma bleeds easily

  • It catches on clothing or jewelry

  • You have multiple angiomas you’d like removed

  • You prefer smoother, clearer skin for cosmetic reasons
