Angiomas and Cysts

Angiomas and Cysts

Angiomas and cysts are common skin growths that can occur in various sizes and shapes. Angiomas are benign tumors that develop from blood vessels, appearing as small red dots or dome-shaped bumps on the skin. Cysts, on the other hand, are fluid-filled sacs that can form beneath the skin, causing a palpable lump or swelling.

At the California Dermatology Institute, our skilled dermatology providers specialize in the diagnosis and treatment of angiomas and cysts. We offer a range of effective procedures to remove these growths and improve the overall appearance of your skin.

The treatment for angiomas and cysts depends on the size, location, and characteristics of the growths. It may include excisional surgery or drainage and removal of the cyst contents. Our dermatology providers will carefully evaluate your condition, discuss the available treatment options, and recommend the most appropriate approach based on your individual needs and preferences.

During the consultation, we will also provide information on prevention strategies and offer guidance on maintaining healthy skin. It’s important to note that some individuals may have a predisposition to developing angiomas or cysts, but by adopting proper skincare practices and regular skin checks, we can minimize the risk of new growths or identify any changes early on.
