Cryopen
What is Cryotherapy?
Cryotherapy is a highly effective and safe procedure that is used to freeze and destroy benign skin lesions. Cryotherapy uses liquified nitrous oxide to destroy the tissue by freezing the cell fluid which in turn forms ice shards that rupture the cell membrane in turn 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
