Answer: Pulsed dye laser is an excellent choice for cherry angiomas The pulsed dye laser in considered the gold standard for treatment of vascular lesions like cherry angiomas. It has an excellent safety record and can remove cherry angiomas in one treatment, unless they are very large. Other choices include Nd:YAG (Gentle YAG) KTP lasers IPL Having used all of these devices, I recommend the pulsed dye laser or Nd:YAG. Best of luck! Dr. Groff
