Cherry Angiomas or ‘Campbell de Morgan’ spots are a benign or harmless skin lesion. They have a distinctive red colour due to the damaged blood vessels within them. They can be flat or raised and are usually found on the torso, arms and shoulders. This type of lesion may bleed if they are scratched, rubbed or knocked.
Skyn Doctor uses Cryopen, an advanced cryotherapy device that delivers an ultra cold jet of high pressure nitrous oxide to safely remove the skin lesion.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
The applicator is held as close as possible to the skin imperfection and moved quickly towards and away from it. The nitrous oxide destroys the tissue by freezing the inter-cellular fluid in a matter of seconds, forming ice shards and crystals which rupture the membrane, thereby destroying the cell. That means there will be no collateral damage to healthy tissue. It’s incredibly accurate and precise.
Cryotherapy is a virtually painless procedure. There may be a mild sensation similar to a stinging nettle on the skin when the nitrous oxide reaches the bottom of the area but is usually well tolerated.
It is very difficult to state a fixed price as it will depend on the size, depth, quantity and area of the skin lesion being treated.
Prices typically start from £50 with discounted prices being available for multiple lesions/areas.
