What Is CryoPen?
CryoPen is an advanced medical device that delivers a controlled jet of nitrous oxide directly onto the skin lesion. This freezes the targeted tissue without affecting the surrounding skin.
Unlike traditional cryotherapy methods, CryoPen allows for:
- Highly accurate application
- Reduced risk to healthy tissue
- Faster healing times

CryoPen Results
Results vary depending on the type and size of the lesion.
- Many lesions resolve after one treatment
- Some may require a follow-up session
- Results are long-lasting once the lesion has resolved
Your practitioner will advise on expected outcomes during your consultation.
How Does CryoPen Work?
The CryoPen emits nitrous oxide at extremely low temperatures, causing rapid freezing of the lesion.
This process:
- Destroys abnormal cells
- Preserves surrounding healthy skin
- Allows the lesion to naturally shed over time
Most treatments take seconds per lesion, making CryoPen a quick and convenient option.
Is CryoPen Safe?
Yes – when performed by trained medical professionals.
At Exthetics:
- Every patient receives a full consultation
- Lesions are assessed for medical suitability
- Treatment is delivered using evidence-based protocols
CryoPen is widely used in medical and dermatology settings and is recognised as one of the most effective treatments for benign skin lesions.
What Does CryoPen Treatment Feel Like?
Most patients describe the sensation as:
- A brief cold sting
- Mild tingling or warmth afterwards
Discomfort is minimal and short-lived. No anaesthetic is usually required.
