The CryoPen is a cryotherapy tool, it is a refrigeration system capable of ejecting high-pressure nitrous oxide gas into the skin. The CryoPen uses disposable cartridges to deliver quick, effective treatments. The pen destroys the skins tissue by freezing the intercellular fluid and does not affect any healthy tissue in the surrounding area thanks to its pinpoint accuracy! In short, cryotherapy is, is a procedure that uses extreme cold to destroy tissue.
Ideal for the removal of skin tags, warts, age spots, sun spots, liver spots, keloids, and milia. The CryoPen is sure to be a worthwhile investment for your clinic as it solves many skin issues for a range of clients of all ages!
hOW DOES IT DIFFER FROM LIQUID NITROGEN?
While Liquid Nitrogen works at a colder temperature (-196°C), compared to Cryopen’s Nitrous Oxide, which works at -89°C. The extreme temperature that Liquid Nitrogen works at is not required. Cell destruction in all benign tissues is achieved at -62°C, therefore nitrous oxide is sufficient to destroy any lesion without risking damage to the surrounding tissue.
The excessive power of liquid nitrogen is not required and may well be an obstacle when treating verrucae and molluscum contagiosum in children, and when the treatment of aesthetic imperfections is needed.
hOW is cryopen able to treat a variety of skin lesions?
The CryoPen device includes multiple interchangeable applicators. The various applicators respond to the different sizes of lesions that practitioners will be confronted with. Treatment of the healthy tissue can easily be avoided due to the applicator’s pin-point precision, which makes it a stress-free procedure. When necessary, practitioners can select an applicator to allow them to carry out deeper treatments which will promote more effective results for larger lesions and reduce time-consuming, repeat visits.
Mostly after treatments, you will not be able to notice where the skin problem was located, however, there are some instances that you may be able to notice really small white spots, this is perfectly normal and healthy and may diminish over time. Cryotherapy will allow for less blood in the affected area of the skin, reduce redness, inflammations, puffiness, irritability and the list goes on.
All of this simply translates into rejuvenated skin that you can feel good about, after the cryotherapy stages of healing. These types of professional treatments are much more recommended and safe than freezing age spots at home.
