A member asked:
Small flat red dot above brow, bright red center lighter red surrounding. been there for many years, possible cherry angioma, looking for confirmation?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
See a doctor: Unfortunately, this is something best confirmed by visual inspection. It certainly could be a cherry angioma, but there is no way to tell from a written description over the internet. Your doctor should be able to easily evaluate this at an office visit.
