What is CryoPen cryotherapy?
CryoPen is a precise cryotherapy device that uses highly pressurised liquid nitrous oxide to freeze and treat benign skin lesions. Unlike traditional cryotherapy sprays, CryoPen targets only the lesion itself, leaving the surrounding skin undisturbed.
The treatment itself is quick, typically a matter of seconds per lesion, with most people describing a mild stinging or cold sensation rather than pain. There's no cutting involved, and downtime is minimal.
What can CryoPen treat?
1
Skin tags
Small, soft growths that commonly form where skin rubs against itself or clothing, such as the neck, underarms or eyelids.
2
Age spots (solar lentigines)
Flat, pigmented patches caused by years of sun exposure, commonly appearing on the face, hands and chest.
3
Milia & cherry angiomas
Small white bumps (milia) and small red or purple spots (cherry angiomas) that are harmless but often bothersome cosmetically.
4
Seborrhoeic keratoses
One of the most common benign skin growths in people over 50, often raised, waxy or slightly scaly in appearance.
5
Warts & verrucas
Viral skin lesions that can sometimes need a short course of repeat treatments to fully resolve.
Why choose a Registered Nurse for lesion removal?
Every lesion is assessed clinically before any treatment goes ahead. As a Registered Nurse and Independent Prescriber with over 20 years of NHS experience, Emma takes a cautious, medically led approach rather than treating on request alone.
Where a lesion looks in any way uncertain, whether in shape, colour or how it's changed over time, we recommend assessment through our Map My Mole service before any cosmetic treatment is considered. This safety-first pathway is something few local clinics can genuinely offer
