Blood spots, medically known as cherry angiomas or Campbell de Morgan spots, are small, red or purple, benign skin growths that can appear on various parts of the body, including the face and chest. While they are generally harmless and not indicative of serious health concerns, many people seek their removal for cosmetic reasons or because they become irritated by clothing or other external factors.

​

How Do Blood Spots Form?

Blood spots are typically caused by an abnormal clustering or dilation of tiny blood vessels, known as capillaries, near the skin's surface. These clusters give the spots their characteristic reddish appearance. While the exact cause of cherry angiomas is not always clear, they tend to become more common with age and may have a genetic component.

Electrolysis for Blood Spot Removal: The Process 

Electrolysis, a trusted method for permanent hair removal, has also proven highly effective in the removal of blood spots. During the procedure, Gee utilizes a tiny probe, similar to the size of a needle, to target the blood spot. A controlled electrical current is then applied through the probe, causing coagulation and sealing of the tiny blood vessels responsible for the spot's appearance. As a result, the blood spot gradually darkens, forms a scab, and eventually falls off, leaving behind smooth, clear skin.

Why Choose Electrolysis for Blood Spot Removal? 

Electrolysis offers several advantages for blood spot removal. It is a precise and minimally invasive procedure that can be performed on various skin types and tones. Additionally, it poses minimal discomfort, with most patients reporting only mild sensations during the process. Electrolysis ensures that the surrounding skin remains largely unaffected, minimizing scarring or damage. The procedure is safe, reliable, and yields long-lasting results, making it a preferred choice for individuals looking to improve their skin's appearance by eliminating bothersome blood spots.
