CRYOPEN LESION REMOVAL
Revolutionary Treatment for Benign Skin Lesions
Effective, Efficient, and Minimal Downtime!
Do you have unsightly or annoying skin lesions that you want rid of?
Skin tags that get caught on clothing?
CryoPen can help!
CryoPen is the leading technology in Cryotherapy for the removal of many different types of benign (non cancerous) skin lesions. It is a state-of-the-art medical grade device designed to treat a variety of benign skin lesions with precision and efficacy. This advanced device uses cryogenic technology to freeze and remove unwanted skin imperfections, offering a quick and minimally invasive solution for various conditions.
What Is CryoPen?
CryoPen O operates by emitting a fine jet of liquefied nitrous oxide under high pressure, which allows for targeted and controlled freezing of the skin lesion. This innovative approach ensures that only the lesion is treated, sparing the surrounding healthy tissue. CryoPen O is renowned for its accuracy and efficiency, making it an ideal safe choice for both patients and practitioners.
What concerns can the CryoPen help with?
CryoPen is highly effective in helping you to deal with the quick and painless removal of many benign (non cancerous) skin lesions that may be causing irritation (if catching/rubbing on clothing) or embarrassment if they are visible and unsightly.
Treatable lesions include:
Skin Tags: These small, soft growths commonly appear on the neck, armpits, and other body skin folds.
Cherry Angioma: Small, red/purple vascular lesions that can appear anywhere on the body.
Filiform Warts: Long, narrow viral warts that most commonly appear on the eyelid but can appear on the face and neck.
Solar Lentigines: Also known as sun spots or age spots, these are flat, brown spots that develop on sun-exposed skin.
Seborrheic Keratoses: Non-cancerous skin growths that appear “stuck on” and can have a waxy, scaly appearance. They often have a soft velvety feel to touch.
Angiofibroma: Small fibrous dome shaped tissue papules common on the face but especially around the nose area
Venous Lake: Small benign vascular dark blue/purple papules, typically on sun exposed skin, especially the face, lips and necks. These are caused by dilated tiny blood vessels due to sun damage.
Actinic Keratoses: Rough scaly lesions that may be slightly raised. Common on the sun exposed areas, especially the face, arms and neck.
Dermatofibroma: Firm lesions, typically on the legs and often as a result of inflammation following insect bites. They typically dimple in the centre when pinched.
Sebaceous Hyperplasia: small sebum filled bumps, common on bony areas such as the forehead. Most common in middle age.
Milia: small pearly white/yellowish raised bumps commonly on cheeks, nose or around the eye area. These are filled with a protein called keratin.
Molluscum Contagiosum: small skin coloured viral bumps with a shiny surface and central dimple. They are common in children but can also occur in adults.
Warts: caused by the Human Papilloma Virus (HPV) and most common on the hands.
What is the Treatment Called?
The treatment is called CryoPen and uses the fully CE /Medical approved CryoPen O device (only available to medical professionals). It delivers liquified nitrous oxide in a very precise, fine jet, to target and treat lesions in even the most delicate areas, including the eye area.
This is a quick, painless treatment with minimal downtime and minimal risk of scarring compared to other surgical options.
Consultation
A full medical consultation is provided with our aesthetic nurse prescriber to check suitability for treatment. A booking fee of £30 will secure your appointment and is redeemable against treatment.
Procedure Time
At Luceo Aesthetics, we take our time to inform you of the treatment plan and any aftercare that may be required. The treatment time only takes 5-10 minutes (depending on size/number and location of lesions). For consultation, assessment, counselling and treatment please allow 30 minutes.
Recovery Time
One of the key advantages of the CryoPen O treatment is the minimal downtime required. This treatment is non invasive. Most patients can resume their daily activities immediately after the procedure and can go back to work immediately. Some lesions may form a thick, painless blister for a few days or develop an eschar (scab). Full healing and lesion removal can be expected within one to two weeks, depending on the lesion type, size and location. You will be given detailed aftercare at your appointment.
Results
Many lesions such as skin tags, cherry angioma, seborrheic keratoses will be successfully treated with 1-2 sessions with the CryoPen. Some larger lesions and viral warts may require more sessions. Solar Lentigines can take a few weeks to come off and then it can be a further few weeks for the new skin underneath to adjust to your normal skin tone. Treatment intervals are usually 2-4 weeks. Once lesions are removed/fall off, they do not usually return (*unless viral warts – these may recur)
