[GV Laser] Hemangioma Removal
Hemangiomas/spider angiomas are vascular lesions where expanded microvessels close to the skin appear as red spots or spiderweb-like patterns, which can be managed with vascular lasers. The GV Laser is a long-pulse laser with two wavelengths, 532nm and 1064nm, allowing for precise removal by adjusting the wavelength and energy according to the size and depth of the lesion. The laser light is designed to be selectively absorbed by hemoglobin in the blood vessels, reducing thermal irritation to the surrounding skin and primarily targeting the expanded blood vessels. Sapphire contact cooling protects the skin surface during the procedure, reducing the burden of irritation and scars, and meticulous aftercare includes soothing management and recovery guidance. ※ There may be individual differences in response and the number of sessions required depending on the type, size, and depth of the lesion, and temporary redness or thin scabs may occur after the procedure.

Hemangioma and Spider Angioma Removal at Cheonan Buldang Kkeut Oriental Medicine Clinic
Selectively targeting only the lesion's blood vessels with GV Laser 532/1064nm
From a single red spot to multiple scattered ones.
Red spots appearing one by one on your body could be hemangiomas
Hemangiomas are vascular lesions that are difficult to expect to disappear on their own, so if they bother you, you might consider treating them with a laser.
One day, you might notice vivid red spots appearing one by one on your torso, arms, and face.
Picking or squeezing them with your hands can lead to bleeding and only increase the risk of scars and hyperpigmentation,
so it's important to identify the type of lesion and approach it with the appropriate method.
What are Hemangiomas and Spider Angiomas?
Hemangioma (Cherry Angioma)
These are vivid red, raised, bumpy lesions on the skin's surface.
They commonly appear on the torso and arms, tend to increase in number with age, and rarely disappear on their own.
Spider Angioma
These are lesions with a central red spot from which fine capillaries spread out in all directions like spider legs.
They are common in noticeable areas like the face, neck, and upper chest, often leading to stress.
Not all red spots are hemangiomas.
There can be lesions that look similar on the surface, such as moles or hemorrhagic lesions, so we first identify the type of lesion during a pre-procedure consultation.
How does GV Laser remove them?
Selectively absorbed by hemoglobin in the blood vessels,
it's a wavelength that is absorbed, and the principle is to coagulate only the blood vessels forming the lesion.
The GV Laser uses 532nm and 1064nm
two wavelengths. For red lesions close to the surface, 532nm is chosen, and for deeper or thicker blood vessels, 1064nm is selected. The wavelength and output are adjusted according to the size, depth, and location of the lesion.
When laser energy is absorbed by the lesion's blood vessels, causing coagulation, you can expect the lesion to gradually lighten or disappear over time.
This treatment aims to minimize irritation to the surrounding normal skin while treating only the lesion.
Procedure Steps
1. Consultation and Lesion Confirmation — We distinguish whether the red lesion is a hemangioma, a mole, or another type of lesion, and also check its number and size.
2. Anesthetic Cream Application (if necessary) — Anesthetic cream may be applied depending on the number and location of the lesions, and the patient's pain sensitivity.
3. GV Laser Irradiation — The wavelength (532/1064nm) and output are adjusted according to the size and depth of the lesion, and each lesion is treated individually.
4. Soothing and Aftercare Guidance — The treated area is soothed, and instructions for the recovery process and precautions are provided.
Post-Procedure Guidance
• Immediately after the procedure, the lesion may temporarily become red or slightly darker, and then gradually lighten over time.
• Tiny scabs may form. Do not forcibly remove them; wait for them to fall off naturally.
• Do not rub the treated area, and pay careful attention to sun protection. This is important for preventing hyperpigmentation.
Even if there's only one red spot,
each one requires thorough checking.
This is Cheonan Buldang Kkeut Oriental Medicine Clinic's hemangioma and spider angioma removal.

Q&A
Answers to the questions we hear most.
Q. How many sessions are typically needed for hemangioma treatment?
It varies depending on the size, depth, and individual skin condition of the lesion. Smaller lesions may lighten with fewer sessions, while larger or deeper lesions may require multiple sessions. During your consultation, we will assess the lesion and provide an estimated number of sessions.
Q. Will there be scars left after removal?
Most areas recover over time, but temporary redness or hyperpigmentation may occur depending on the size, depth of the lesion, and post-procedure care. It is important for recovery not to forcibly remove scabs and to meticulously use sun protection.
Q. Once removed, will they never reappear?
Separate from the treated lesions, new hemangiomas may appear in other areas over time. Especially cherry angiomas tend to appear more as one gets older, so managing new lesions as they appear is a realistic approach.
Q. How do I differentiate between moles and hemangiomas?
Although they may appear similar on the surface, the nature of the lesions differs, requiring different equipment and approaches. During the consultation, we will examine the lesion directly to differentiate them, and if it's not a hemangioma, we will guide you to the appropriate removal method.
