Vancouver’s leading plastic surgery group.
Beautiful Results. Personalized Service.
Cherry angiomas (or sometimes known as haemangiomas) are harmless, small red to purple growths that are in fact a collection of tiny blood vessels. They can appear anywhere on the body and more of them occur with time and maturity.
Cherry angiomas can be removed easily and safely, with a quick in-office procedure with minimal to no downtime.
Techniques used:
Electrodessication: the cherry angioma undergoes destruction by pinpoint heat
Laser: Laser can be used to destroy the tiny blood vessels which cause the red/purple appearance
The Surgical Experience
Short Scar facelift procedures are performed under local anaesthesia with twilight sedation as an outpatient procedure in an accredited surgical facility. The length of the surgery will vary, but it generally takes between 2-3 hours. This surgery is considered an outpatient procedure. After surgery, patients will be dressed with a head wrap that is removed 2 days after surgery. There will be mild bruising and swelling of the face and neck. This will gradually improve within a few days. The scars associated with the short scar lift are well hidden within the curvatures of the ear and will fade over time. Most patients will need 1 week off work following surgery, and can resume full activities after 6 weeks.
Cost
Each facelift surgery is unique and will be tailored to each patient. Most patients can expect to pay $8,500-$13,000.

FAQs
Non non-surgical procedures such as BOTOX®, injectable fillers, microdermabrasion, and chemical peels can assist in smoothing out surface wrinkles, improve fine lines and add facial volume. However, patients with loose skin, drooping jowls or a sagging neck will need to consider surgery if they want these features improved.
No. Short Scar facelift procedures are performed under local anaesthesia with twilight sedation, so the patient is comfortable throughout the operation, without the risk of general anaesthesia. All procedures are performed in an accredited non-hospital facility.
