FREEZPEN & Cryotherapy

Cost: 

Will depend on the type and size of lesion. Please contact us for a free consultation.

Time in Office

Treatments are incredibly efficient, typically lasting less than 1 minute per lesion. This "walk-in, walk-out" procedure is designed to fit seamlessly into even the most demanding schedules.

Recovery Time

There is no downtime required. While the treated area will undergo a natural healing process over 3–4 weeks, you can return to your daily activities immediately following the session.

Results Last

Cryotherapy provides permanent removal of the treated lesion. Once the body eliminates the destroyed tissue and replaces it with new, healthy skin, the specific lesion treated will not return.

Number of Treatments Required

Most benign lesions are successfully removed in just 1 to 3 sessions, depending on the size, depth, and type of the skin concern being addressed.

This high-precision, non-invasive procedure uses pressurized Nitrous Oxide (N2O) to deliver a targeted freezing jet at -89°C. This temperature is significantly below the threshold required for effective cryonecrosis (cell death via freezing).

The process begins by pinpointing the lesion with the Freezpen tip. As the cold is applied, ice crystals form and expand within the unwanted cells, rupturing their membranes and destroying the tissue. Over the following weeks, your body’s natural healing response kicks in, shedding the dead cells and regenerating fresh, healthy skin in its place.

Professional Consultation First

For your safety, any moles or irregular spots must be assessed by a medical professional to ensure they are benign (non-cancerous) before we perform removal. If you are unsure about a spot, we recommend a quick check-up with your family doctor first.

Clean and Product-Free Skin

On the day of your appointment, please ensure the area to be treated is clean and free of any makeup, heavy lotions, oils, or self-tanning products. This allows the cold jet to make direct, unobstructed contact with the lesion.

Avoid Intense Sun Exposure

Try to avoid significant sun exposure or tanning beds on the target area for at least 48 hours before your session. We cannot treat skin that is currently sunburned or heavily irritated, as this can affect how the tissue heals.

Be Comfortable

Since the treatment is so fast and non-invasive, there is no need to fast or take any special medication. Feel free to eat and drink normally before you arrive!

Natural Healing Progression

After treatment, the lesion may darken or form a small crust. Do not pick or scratch the area; allow the dead tissue to slough off naturally to ensure the smoothest possible result and prevent scarring.

Protect New Skin

As the lesion heals and new skin emerges, the area will be more sensitive to UV rays. Apply a broad-spectrum SPF 30+ daily to the site to prevent post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation and protect the fresh tissue.

Keep the Area Clean

Gently wash the treated area with mild soap and water. Avoid harsh chemical exfoliants or abrasive scrubs on the site for at least two weeks to allow the skin to recover without irritation.

Targeted Viral Destruction: 

The extreme cold penetrates deep into the wart to destroy the virus-infected cells at the root.

High Success Rate: 

Even stubborn plantar warts respond well to the high-pressure N2O delivery, often requiring fewer treatments than over-the-counter acids.

Even Skin Tone: 

By freezing excess melanin clusters, cryotherapy shatters the pigment, allowing the body to lift and remove the spot.

Youthful Results: 

This treatment effectively clears "liver spots" and sun damage from the face, hands, and décolletage for a clearer complexion.

No Snagging, No Irritation: 

Stop worrying about skin tags catching on your jewelry or clothing. We can whisk them away in seconds.

Pain-Free Precision: 

Because the treatment is so fast and targeted, most people find it much more comfortable than traditional "freezing" methods.

Bye-Bye Bumpy Skin: 

Whether it’s those tiny white bumps under the eyes (milia) or waxy patches (keratosis), we can smooth them out for a soft, touchable skin texture.

Clearer Pores: 

We can even target those small, persistent oil bumps to give your skin a more refined, polished appearance.

Flawless Healing: 

Because we aren't cutting the skin, there’s no need for stitches and a very low risk of scarring. Your skin heals naturally and beautifully.

Safe and Simple: 

This is a non-invasive way to get surgical-level results without the anxiety of a "medical" procedure. It’s quick, easy, and incredibly effective.

No. Unlike some older methods that might cause bleeding, the Freezpen "seals" the area as it freezes. This is especially helpful for things like warts or molluscum, as it prevents the viral cells from spreading to the skin nearby.

Absolutely. Many clients choose to clear away 5, 10, or even more skin tags or age spots in a single session. Since each spot takes only seconds, it’s a very efficient way to "deep clean" your skin in one go.

Yes, cryotherapy is generally safe for all skin tones. However, if you have a very dark complexion, there is a small risk of "hypopigmentation" (a temporary light spot). Our specialists will assess your skin during your consultation to ensure the best results.
