benign lesion removal

how we do it

Precision Cryotherapy is a cutting-edge treatment that uses extreme cold to freeze benign lesions such as moles, skin tags, and warts

We use Nitrous Oxide - the safer alternative to liquid nitrogen - to freeze the lesion to -89℃. Our technology creates a focused jet of gas that targets only the lesion itself while avoiding damage to the surrounding healthy tissue. The treatment is very comfortable and only requires a few seconds of freezing.

benign lesions

  • skin tags

    A skin tag is a type of soft fibroma which is usually found in areas where the skin forms creases. Skin tags can be observed in about 46% of adults and are assumed to arise from excessive skin friction, although genetics may also be associated with skin tags development.

  • age spots

    Are harmless patches of darkened skin caused by hyperactive melanocytes and accumulation of melanin within skin cells. Age spot is mostly attributed to excessive exposure to UV radiation and cumulative damage to melanocytes which are exposed to prolonged stress.

  • molluscum

    Molluscum is a contagious viral skin infection caused by the Molluscum contagiosum virus. Molluscum contagiosum is spread by direct contact with someone who has it or by touching an object contaminated with the virus, such as a towel or a piece of clothing.

  • milia

    Milia is a cyst that forms when keratin becomes trapped beneath the surface of the skin.

  • Moles

    Moles are a benign skin growth that consists of a cluster of melanocytes.

  • fibroma

    Is a benign tumor-like growth made mostly of fibrous connective tissue. Fibroma is uncontrolled cell growth that occurs for an unknown reason or as a result of injury or local irritation.

  • seborrheic keratosis

    Seborrheic keratosis is a common skin growth that becomes more prevalent with age. The lesion appears gradually and may increase in size overtime.

  • common warts

    Warts are typically large, rough and hard growths that are caused by infection with a type of human papilloma virus (HPV). Two of the main types are Common warts and Plantar warts.

  • cherry ANGIOMAS

    Cheery Angioma is a benign growth that consists of a cluster of small blood vessels.

  • sebaceous hyperplasia

    Sebaceous hyperplasia is a harmless skin condition that typically develops when sebaceous glands produce too much oil, which can then be trapped in clogged pores and cause bumps. The overproduction of sebum (oil) can be attributed to hyperplasia of sebaceous glands or hyperactivity of enlarged glands.

 FAQs

  • FreezPen treats all types of common non-malignant skin lesions: warts, dark spots, liver/age spots, skin tags, moles, keratosis, angiomas, fibromas, milia, molluscum contagiosum and more. Please note that any types of malignant or suspicious growths need to be treated by a certified dermatologist.

  • Your lesion is expected to fall off 2-4 weeks after the treatment. Some lesions are more persistent and may take longer to disappear

  • The treatment is comfortable and doesn’t hurt. It feels like a light pinch. There is no need for local anesthesia.

  • Most lesions require one treatment. Large lesions, such as warts, may require 1-2 follow
    up treatments.

  • Immediately after. FreezPen treatments involve zero downtime.

  • FreezPen cryotherapy is the safest modality for the removal of unwanted skin growths. Since FreezPen treatments are non-invasive and precise, the risk of scars and infections is significantly diminished when compared to other invasive treatments.

  • As many as you like. There is no limit on the number of lesions per session.

  • Yes, children are most commonly treated for warts and Molluscum Contagiosum. FreezPen cryotherapy is a tolerable modality suitable for both children and adults.

  • FreezPen treatment usually takes no more than a few minutes. The duration of the treatment depends on the number of treated lesions, the number of freeze-thaw cycles and the duration of freezing.

  • New skin growths (especially moles) are potentially malignant and need to be evaluated by a dermatologist first. Only stable lesions that are not evolving over time are suitable for cryotherapy treatments. Consult with a certified physician to make sure your new mole is a non-malignant growth before removing it with FreezPen.

  • Yes, FreezPen treatment is safe for everybody.

  • Generally, there is no post-treatment care regime and you may resume your daily activities immediately after the treatment. We do advise patients to apply healing ointments (such as Aquaphor) on the area of the treatment to speed up the healing process.

  • Although FreezPen cryotherapy is the safest treatment today for the removal of skin lesions, a few rare side effects may still occur. These side effects include:

    • Pigmentation – Temporary pigmentation is rare but possible because melanocytes are more susceptible to sub-zero temperatures. FreezPen minimizes the risk of collateral damage to healthy skin tissue, so the risk of pigmentation is minimized as well.

    • Blisters – temporary blisters may appear in the lesion area due to fluids that are released from destroyed lesion cells.

    • Hair loss – like melanocytes, hair follicles are more susceptible to sub-zero temperatures. Hair follicles in the treated area are more likely to be affected, thus hair may not grow back in the area of the lesion after cryotherapy.
