Blood Spots (Campbell De Morgans)



Also known as a cherry angioma (plural angiomata) it is a vascular blemish where it is not possible to distinguish the individual capillaries. Dome shaped or raised with an unknown origin, they are most common on the trunk or torso, particularly on the midriff back or front in the middle-aged and elderly. Most people over 30 have at least one - even more common in men than women.
Blood spots are usually simply a spider nevus often found under the eye or on the cheeks. Our skilled highly qualified Practitioner will be able to remove them.
A Fine Needle is placed just under the skin and a small amount of electric current cauterise the dilated capillary.
This results in the capillary drying up and then disappearing. Consultation and prescription Home Care is essential.
