CRYOPEN
PRECISE AND SAFE LESION REMOVAL
Cryopen is an advanced, non-surgical treatment designed for the quick removal of a wide range of benign skin imperfections, including:
- skin tags.
- cherry angiomas,
- age spots,
- seborrhoeic keratoses,
- warts
- milia and more.
Thanks to its exceptional precision, Cryopen can even be used safely around delicate areas such as the eyes.
This innovative device delivers precision cryosurgery in a compact, hand-held pen. By emitting a highly pressurised jet of liquid nitrous oxide, it freezes targeted skin cells, safely removing unwanted lesions. The treatment is quick, highly targeted, and requires no anaesthetic or downtime. making it an ideal option for clients seeking effective results with minimal aftercare.
Because it works with such precision, Cryopen targets only the lesion while leaving the surrounding healthy tissue untouched. This makes it an ideal choice for treating visible and sensitive areas such as the face, neck and decollete.
Prices for Cryopen start from £50 including consultation for one small lesion. But the final price will be confirmed after consultation, depending on the size and number of lesions.
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
HOW DOES CRYOPEN WORK
Cryopen uses the science of cryotherapy - the controlled destruction of unwanted tissue through the application of extreme cold. The device emits a fine, pressurised jet of nitrous oxide that rapidly freezes the intercellular fluid within the targetted skin cells. This process causes the formation of ice crystals, which rupture the cell membranes and destroy the unwanted tissue.
The treated area is then naturally rejected by the body, either by flaking off or through gradual reabsorption, leaving behind smoother clearer skin.
WHAT TO EXPECT FROM YOUR CRYOPEN TREATMENT
At your first visit we will ask a few questions about your medical history and examine the areas you wish to treat to confirm whether Cryopen is the most suitable option. In some cases we may recommend further investigation, such as Map My Mole analysis, to ensure complete safety before proceeding.
Before your Cryopen treatment, it is important to avoid retinoids, exfoliating acids such as AHA's, BHA's and PHA's, or any physical exfoliants for at least 48 hours prior. You should also avoid fake tan or gradual tanners for two weeks before your appointment, and refrain from laser or IPL treatments for the same period.
During your treatment, a fine jet of nitrous oxide is applied directly to the lesion for a few seconds. Most clients experience only a brief mild stinging or tingling sensation, and discomfort is minimal.
AFTERCARE & FOLLOW UP
Cryopen requires very little aftercare compared to other removal methods such as electrocautery or laser. Healing is typically fast and uncomplicated.
For 48-72 hours after treatment, you should avoid exposure to heat such as sunbathing, saunas, steam rooms or hot baths, as well as swimming or physical exercise.
It is normal to experience mild redness, swelling or blistering for up to 48 hours after your session.
A follow up appointment is recommended 2-4 weeks after treatment to assess the results and confirm that the treated tissue has fully disappeared. In some cases, an additional session may be needed to achieve complete clearance.
