Red Bumps

Skin Concern

Understanding Red Bumps

Red bumps on the skin can take several forms — from cherry spots (clusters of dilated blood vessels) to red nodules (firm, red-brown bumps caused by collagen buildup). While entirely benign and painless, they are a common cosmetic concern that can appear on the face, chest, arms, and other areas of the body. Many patients seek treatment simply to restore a clearer, more even complexion.

Cherry Spots

Small, harmless bright-red spots formed by clusters of dilated blood vessels just beneath the skin's surface. They typically appear after age 30 and may increase in number with age.

Red Nodules

Firm, red-brown bumps caused by localized collagen buildup beneath the skin. These benign growths are painless and can appear on various parts of the body, most often on the legs and trunk.

Skin Growths

Non-cancerous, raised growths that may appear flesh-colored, pink, or red. Caused by aging, sun exposure, or minor skin trauma — commonly found on adults.

Common Causes of Red Bumps

  • Aging — Blood vessels and collagen structures change as skin ages, leading to visible red spots
  • Sun exposure — UV damage can cause blood vessels to dilate and become visible
  • Genetics — A family history of cherry angiomas or red nodules increases likelihood
  • Hormonal changes — Fluctuations in hormones can trigger new growths or increase their number
  • Collagen irregularities — Localized collagen buildup creates firm, raised red bumps

Precise, Permanent Removal

At Unity by MD, we use the Superfrecator Gen 3 to permanently remove red bumps, cherry spots, and red nodules in a single treatment session. The device's micro electric probe delivers targeted high-frequency electrical currents directly to the affected area, eliminating the growth at its source without damaging surrounding skin.

Why the Superfrecator Works

Targeted Precision: The micro electric probe treats only the red bump or spot, leaving surrounding healthy skin completely untouched.
One Session, Permanent Results: Red bumps and cherry spots treated with the Superfrecator are permanently removed — no repeat sessions needed.
Virtually Painless: A numbing cream is applied prior to treatment, ensuring maximum comfort throughout the procedure.
No Bleeding or Scarring: The non-invasive technique eliminates the risk of bleeding, cuts, or scarring associated with surgical removal.
