Cryotherapy treatments

The Skin Perfector - Flawless skin in a matter of seconds!

Cryotherapy or Cryosurgery is a highly effective and safe procedure that is used to freeze and destroy benign skin lesions. It uses liquefied nitrous oxid to destroy the tissue by freezing the cell fluid which in turn forms ice shards that rupture the cell membrane inturn destroying the cell and the lesion.

Cryotherapy is beneficial as it is quicker than other treatments and patients can be in and out in seconds. It requires no anaesthesia and has minimal scarring. There are no limitations on activities (except protecting the area from damage or abrasion) and patients can return to normal activities after treatment(s).

  • The treatment runs in 3 freezing cycles.

    First Freeze Cycle - The clinician will hold the applicator as close as possible to the lesion, and move it quickly towards and away from it. Depending on the lesion size and depth, the treatment could be 1 to 30 seconds.

    Thaw Cycle - After the first freezing cycle, the tissue will be allowed to thaw for about 30 seconds.

    Second Freeze Cycle - The second freeze cycle will start. The tissue will freeze faster than during the first freezing cycle. CryoPen Cryotherapy can treat all common benign skin lesions inclLding age spots, warts, skintags, verrucas, cherry angiomas and many more.

  • Cryotherapy requires no anaesthesia and has less scarring than other techniques of skin removal with minimal post-op care. Treatment goes fast and can be integrated into daily practice.

  • The applicator is held as close as possible to the skin imperfection and moved quickly towards and away from it. This could be from 1-30 seconds, depending on the size and depth. After the first freeze cycle,the tissue can thaw for about 30 seconds. Now the second freeze cycle will begin. The tissue will freeze faster than during the first freezing cycle.

  • Yes, but cautions about skin type and location be considered prior to deciding on freeze times. People with high levels of cryoglobulins should be treated with caution. If with dark skin, one may not want to have cryotherapy,it will killthe melanocytes around the treated area, making the skin in that area lighter.

  • For most lesions, cryotherapy is a permanent removal. Some lesions are harder to remove than others. In addition, it is necessary to obtain a result with the least damage to the surrounding skin. In other instances, a deep lesion may take several aggressive treatments to get results. It is important to have an instrument that can adapt to variable dosing of power.

  • This does not normally occur. Darkening or lightening of the skin may occur temporarily. Both generally last for a few months. The pigment change is more common in darker skin types.

  • Most small common warts will respond to a single treatment. However,certain types and very deep ones can be very difflcuIt to remove and may require morethan one treatment.

  • There are no limitations on activity except to protect the area from damage or abrasion. Swimming and showering is not a problem.
