SKIN IMPERFECTIONS/CRYOTHERAPY
WHAT IS CRYOTHERAPY AND WHAT DOES IT TREAT
It is is an advanced Crotherapy innovation that is a fast effective, safe and new solution for removal of skin imperfections. Procedures typically last from 5 to 30 seconds, so you can be in and out of the salon quickly.
It emits a fine jet of Nitrous Oxide under high pressure which allows the work to be done with millimetre precision. This destroys the tissue by freezing the inter-cellular fluid, forming ice shards and crystals which rupture the membrane, thereby destroying the cell. That means there will be no collateral damage to healthy tissue. Its so incredibly accurate and practical.
Cosmetic procedures such as skintags, milia and cherry angiomas are no longer treated by many doctors on the NHS. With Cryotherapy you can now have these treatments in the beauty salon.
Cryotherapy offers the ideal treatment for:-
-
Skin tags
-
Warts
-
Solar lentigo
-
Milia
-
Cherry angionma
-
Viral verrucae
-
Age spots
Following your treatment protect your blemishes from harmful rays.
HOW IT WORKS
The applicator is held as close as possible to the skin imperfection and moved quickly towards and away from it. This could be 1-30 seconds depending on the size and depth
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Are there any side effects?
The area treated is frozen by Cryotherapy. This kills the localized cells in the area which cause them to shrivel and die. The treated area may go darker over a few weeks, but will return to normal pigmented skin in about 6 weeks
HOW LONG ARE CRYOTHERAPY TREATMENTS?
The duration of the treatment time will depend on the surface area and the thickness of the tissue being treated. Upon the clinical evaluation of the depth of the area, the clinician will choose an application time from 1 to 30 seconds
HOW MUCH WILL THE TREATMENT COST?
The cost of treatment will depend on the size of the area
HOW SAFE IS CRYOTHERAPY?
Cryotherapy is a relatively low risk procedure. It delivers a freeze to the area and not the healthy tissue surrounding it. The Cyrotherapy device is both CE and FDA registered.
IS THE TREATMENT PAINFUL?
There will be a pain sensation similar to a stinging nettle when the Nitrous Oxide reaches the bottom of the area. There might be a little residual stinging for a few minutes after treatment. This is normal.
