Cherry Angioma Clinical Trial
Official title:
Comparison of Electrodessication, Potassium Titanyl Phosphate (KTP) Laser and Pulsed Dye Laser for Treatment of Cherry Angiomata
The primary objective of this study is to determine whether laser treatments over 6 weeks
using the pulsed dye laser system or the potassium titanyl phosphate (KTP) laser are
effective in patients with cherry angiomas as observed by a physician provider and the
subject.
The investigators hypothesize that the two laser treatments will be an effective tool for
treating cherry angiomas. The investigators aim to compare these modalities to
electrodessication, as all three modalities are considered the current standard of care.
Electrodessication can result in atrophic lesions at the site of the treated cherry
angiomas.
In summary, the goal of this project is to compare the non-ablative pulsed dye laser and the
AuraTM potassium titanyl phosphate (KTP) laser to each other and to the current standard of
care, electrodessication.
