This visit is for normal-looking skin tags, milia and cherry angiomas

We treat small, ordinary skin tags, milia and cherry angiomas.

Larger or unusual-looking growths may need surgical removal, or a check first to rule out anything serious.

Some spots may still need surgical follow-up after treatment here.

If so, we'll tell you at your visit and point you to the right care.

Not sure what that spot is?

Most people don't know what their spot is called, and that's fine.

Here's what the most common ones look like.

If yours isn't listed, or it has changed, our medical team will tell you what it is at your visit.

Milia Removal

Small white or yellowish bumps that will not pop, most often under the eyes or on the cheeks.

Milia are tiny, harmless cysts just under the skin.

Squeezing them at home doesn't work and can leave a mark.

Scrubs and acids rarely reach them either, because the keratin is sealed under an intact layer of skin.

Your provider picks the method in clinic: a fine sterile instrument, gentle freezing or cautery.

Most people have several treated in one visit.

Treated spots typically look slightly pink for a day or two, then settle, and makeup can usually go back on the next day.

Milia can form again over time.

Cherry Angioma Removal

Small bright red dots, often slightly raised, that appear on the chest, arms, or back and tend to multiply with age.

Cherry angiomas are harmless clusters of tiny blood vessels, usually starting in your thirties.

Picking at one does not remove it and can make it bleed, because it is made of blood vessels.

We treat them in clinic with cautery or freezing, generally in one visit, several at a time.

Expect small dark dots for several days to a couple of weeks, which then flake away.

New ones can appear elsewhere over the years.

Age spots and sun spots

Flat brown or tan patches on the face, hands, chest, or shoulders that showed up after years of sun.

Age and sun spots are flat, so they're treated differently from the raised growths on this page.

Depending on how many you have and where they are, your provider may suggest a laser or peel rather than freezing or cautery.

That's decided at a visit, so send a photo first to book the right appointment.

Dark raised bumps (DPN)

Small dark brown or black raised bumps, usually on the cheeks and temples, often running in families.

Dermatosis papulosa nigra is harmless, common in deeper skin tones, and often runs in families.

Treatment is cosmetic, and the wrong technique on deeper skin can leave lighter or darker marks.

Our providers treat it conservatively, often starting with a small test area at the first visit.

Pricing is per spot and shown with the booking options above. Anything that looks unusual in size, shape, or color gets evaluated before it gets treated.
