Cryotherapy
CRYOTHERAPY | SKIN LESION REMOVAL
Reveal smoother, clearer-looking skin with Cryotherapy, an advanced, non-invasive treatment designed to safely and precisely target suitable benign skin lesions using controlled freezing technology.
What is Cryotherapy?
The Cryo Pen, also known as a cryotherapy pen or cryosurgical pen, is a medical device used for cryotherapy, a technique that involves freezing and destroying unwanted tissue
How does it work?
Cryotherapy works by applying extreme cold to the targeted area, causing the treated tissue to gradually break down and naturally shed as the skin heals.
The Cryo Pen is filled with a cooling agent, liquid nitrogen or nitrous oxide gas. These substances have extremely low temperatures, usually around -196°C (-321°F) for liquid nitrogen.
The pen has a fine, precise nozzle or applicator tip, that allows us to target the specific area requiring treatment without affecting the surrounding healthy tissue.
When the Cryo Pen is applied to the skin lesion, the cooling agent rapidly freezes the water within the cells of the targeted tissue. This freezing process causes ice crystals to form, damaging the cells and blood vessels in the treated area.
After freezing the tissue for a few seconds, the Cryo Pen is removed, and the treated area is allowed to thaw. As the cells thaw, the disrupted tissue is gradually destroyed.
Following Cryo Pen treatment, the body's immune system recognizes the damaged tissue as "foreign" and begins the natural healing process. Over time, the destroyed tissue and the lesion falls off and new healthy tissue replaces it.
