What is Cryopen?

CryoPen is a fast, non-invasive, and precise cosmetic procedure using nitrous oxide to freeze and remove benign skin lesions – such as skin tags, warts, and age spots – in 5–25 seconds. It acts with millimeter precision, minimizing damage to surrounding healthy tissue, and typically requires no anesthesia.

What results can I expect?

CryoPen treatment typically results in the fast, precise removal of benign skin lesions – such as skin tags, sun spots, and warts- within 1 – 3 weeks. The procedure causes a stinging sensation and leaves a small scab that falls off, often requiring only one session with minimal downtime or risk of scarring.

What are the potential risks / side effects of this procedure?

CryoPen treatment is a low-risk, minimally invasive procedure for removing skin lesions, and can have side effects, including temporary stinging pain, redness, swelling, and blistering. 

How do I prepare for the treatment?

Preparing for a CryoPen treatment is minimal, as it is a non-invasive procedure, but you should avoid applying creams, lotions, or fake tan to the area 24-48 hours before.

What happens during treatment?

CryoPen treatment is a fast, non-invasive, with minimal discomfort procedure that uses high-pressure nitrous oxide to freeze and destroy benign skin lesions like skin tags, warts, and sun spots in 3-45 seconds. A,pen-like device precisely freezes the lesion to – 89 degrees C, resulting in minimal damage to surrounding healthy tissue, minimal discomfort, and no need for anesthesia.

What should I do after my treatment?

After a CryoPen treatment, the most important steps are to keep the area clean and dry, avoid picking at scabs or popping blisters, and apply sunscreen to prevent scarring while the skin heals. It is normal to experience stinging, redness, and swelling for 10-60 minutes, with a scab or blister potentially forming within 24–48 hours.
