CryoPen® Treatment

Skin imperfections like warts, age spots, or skin tags can distract from your complexion and reduce confidence — but removing them shouldn't mean downtime or scars.

CryoPen® technology delivers medical-grade cryotherapy with pinpoint precision, freezing targeted tissue to -127°C while preserving the surrounding healthy skin. It's the gold standard in non-surgical lesion removal, offering rapid, scar-minimised outcomes.

At Face Up Skin Studio in Walthamstow, this treatment is carried out by our highly trained medical aesthetic practitioner, Karolina Ahmed, ensuring safety, comfort, and superior results.

Skin Tags, Age Spots, Warts
CryoPen® safely removes common lesions that appear with age, sun exposure, or friction. Whether on the neck, face, or body, it’s suitable for both cosmetic and functional concerns.

Seborrheic Keratosis or Benign Growths
These rough, raised patches are common with age but respond well to CryoPen’s fast-freeze application, clearing the area while preserving skin tone and texture.

Delicate or Visible Areas (e.g., Face, Neck, Eyes)
The precision of CryoPen® makes it ideal for treating sensitive or highly visible areas where cosmetic outcomes matter most.

Most clients see immediate tissue change post-treatment as the lesion darkens and naturally falls away within 7–14 days. A fresh layer of skin then regenerates in its place.

In some cases, a second session may be required — particularly for larger, deeper lesions. Long-term outcomes depend on the type of lesion and your skin's healing response, but most people experience a noticeable improvement with minimal trace left behind.

  • Protect the treated area from sun/UV exposure post treatment.
  • Darkening or Lightening of the skin may occur which will subside.
