ASKED QUESTIONS

What is Cryotherapy?

Cryotherapy is the gold standard for
removal of skin lesions in dermatology
and aesthetic practices. It’s the controlled
elimination of unwanted tissue through
the application of extreme cold.

How long will it take for the lesion
to disappear?

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

How does the Freezpen
treatment feel?

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

How soon after the treatment can I
return to my daily activity?

Immediately after. Freezpen treatments
involve zero downtime.

How many treatments are required?

Most lesions require 1-3 treatments. Large and
stubborn lesions, such as plantar warts, may
require additional sessions.

Will the Freezpen treatment leave any
scars on my skin?

No. Freezpen is a non-invasive treatment.
Temporary blistering may occur, but there will
be no permanent scars or marks left on
your skin.
