Cryo Skin Tag Removal

High power (55‐bar) micro jet achieves in‐tissue temperature of ‐89'C for complete tissue necrosis in seconds. Ultra fine sharp jet for total precision and no damage to the healthy tissue.

Cherry Angiomas, Pigment Spots, Age Spots, Verrucaes, Warts, Benign lesions.

There will be a quick sting (similar to a stinging nettle) on the skin when the nitrous oxide reaches the bottom of the lesion. There may be a slight residue sting/sensitivity after the treatment for a short time.

1‐ 3 treatments. Most lesions will go after the first treatment. Some lesions may need a maximum of 3 treatments.

Downtime on this treatment depends on the area/areas treated. The healing process will be discussed during your pre treatment consultation. It should be noted that there will be redness immediately after this treatment but you can continue with everyday activities.

There are few side effects. Cryotherapy is a relatively low risk treatment. Possible sides effects include the following:

• Pigmentary changes (hypo and hyper pigmentation) if this happens the skin colour normally returns after a few months
• Nerve damage (particularly where nerves lay close to the skin surface, fingers, wrist, behind the ear) Reports show that normal sensitivity returns after a few months
• Hair follicle damage and permanent alopecia (especially when treating area on sires of course terminal hair)

The histamine in the area treated will create an itchy sensation for about ten minutes, do not worry this – it is perfectly normal. The area treated will look inflamed and can also be red. Blistering can happen with any cryotherapy treatment and is indiscriminate. You will have signed the consent form to show that you are aware of this. The blister may last anything from a few hours to a few days dependant on the area to be treated.
