If you’ve noticed a circular, bright red, small shape on your body, you may be dealing with a cherry angioma. These are commonly known as red moles and are common in individuals 30 and older. Although they are not cause for alarm unless the mole changes in color, shape or size or starts bleeding, many prefer to have them removed for aesthetic purposes only. Angiomas may be slightly raised from your skin or lay flat and smooth. They vary in size, although they rarely get larger than ¼ of an inch in diameter. Angiomas can be inconvenient and annoying because if they are rubbed, scratched or cut open, they will bleed.

Identifying Causes Of Angiomas

While a definite cause has not been identified for cherry angiomas, there is a loose link between age and the occurrence of such as red spots or skin growth. Of those tested at 75 or older, 75 percent of them had a cherry angioma. Researchers have also linked angiomas to certain medical conditions, climate, exposure to chemicals and pregnancy. Because there is no direct cause of angiomas and they are not life-threatening, there are several ways to treat them cosmetically. At Total Body, we want your skin to be clear and free of any blemishes, and we want you to feel comfortable in the skin you’re in. That’s why we offer laser treatment for mole removal or skin growths.
