Best Treatments For Angioma

Angiomas are benign growths made up of small blood vessels that appear as bright red, purple, or blue spots on the skin. Common types include cherry angiomas and spider angiomas. While harmless, they can become more numerous with age or hormonal shifts, and many individuals seek removal for cosmetic reasons or to prevent irritation.

What to Expect from Treatment for Angioma at Kovak Cosmetic Center

Immediately After Treatment

Angiomas often darken or crust slightly as the treated blood vessels collapse. Mild redness or pinpoint swelling may occur but usually resolves within hours.

✓ Instant vessel targeting begins
✓ Minimally invasive with no stitches
✓ Quick, in-office procedure

1 to 2 Weeks

Treated spots begin to fade or flake off naturally. The surrounding skin heals evenly with little to no irritation.

✓ Noticeable reduction or complete clearance
✓ Restored smoothness in treated areas
✓ Low risk of scarring or pigment change

1 to 2 Months

Skin continues to regenerate and normalize. If multiple angiomas were treated, overall tone appears more even and blemish-free.

✓ Clearer, more uniform skin tone
✓ Confidence in skin’s appearance
✓ No lingering marks or raised spots

3 to 6 Months

Treated angiomas typically do not return, though new ones may develop over time. Follow-up visits ensure lasting results and provide treatment for any future concerns.

✓ Long-term vascular spot removal
✓ Maintained clarity with minimal upkeep
✓ Peace of mind and ongoing skin confidence
