At Cryosonic, we provide a safe and effective way to remove cherry angiomas—those small, red skin spots that often show up as we get older.
While they’re usually harmless, many people choose to have them removed for cosmetic reasons or just for peace of mind.
One of the most common treatments we use is cryotherapy.
This involves applying a short burst of cold gas directly to the angioma, which freezes the tissue and causes it to fall away naturally over time. The procedure is quick, gentle, and doesn’t require any cutting or stitches.
Our experienced team makes sure you’re comfortable throughout the process, and there’s usually no need to take time off—most people go straight back to their day as normal.
Cherry angiomas can seem pretty freaky at first glance, i.e., super-bright red and maybe a little elevated, just sort of chilling randomly on your skin.
Most of the time, though, they’re a natural part of ageing. These little clusters of blood vessels typically materialize on the chest, back, arms, or neck, and are very common in people over 30.
The good news? They’re generally harmless and not associated with any major health problems. But if one shows signs of sudden change in size, shape, colour, or starts to bleed, it’s a good idea to have it checked by a professional.
At Cryosonic, we would be pleased to evaluate your angiomas and provide a recommendation as to whether or not removal would be best for you.

Why Do Cherry Angiomas Suddenly Appear as You Age?
Cherry angiomas generally become more common the older we get because the structure of our blood vessels and skin changes.
Genetics can also play a role, as can sun exposure, hormone shifts, and even some medical conditions. In most cases, however, it’s just a natural part of the body’s aging.

Do Cherry Angiomas Mean Something Serious, or Are They Just a Cosmetic Issue?
For the majority of individuals, cherry angiomas are strictly cosmetic. They're not a sign of disease and very rarely need to be treated unless they are itchy, bleeding or you just don’t like the way they look.
But you should go get anything sudden checked, if not just to rule out that you don’t have one of the skin concerns mentioned.
Choosing between cryotherapy and laser treatment depends on your skin type, the size and number of angiomas, and your personal preference.
At Cryosonic, we’ll assess your skin during your consultation and talk you through which option would work best for you. We tailor every treatment to your specific needs, so you’ll feel confident in whichever choice you make.
