Cryopen treatments are used for common skin concerns such as blemishes, lesions, and imperfections.
Concerned with improving the appearance of healthier skin, cryopen is a low-risk, minimally invasive solution without the need for injections or needles. Instead, cryopen body treatments use highly-pressured liquid nitrous oxide to destroy the tissue and stimulate the natural healing process for beautiful, clear skin.

How does cryopen treatment work?
As it is highly precise, the cryopen specifically targets lesions and blemishes using nitrous oxide to remove the particular skin imperfection while leaving the surrounding skin healthy and unmarked.
Cryopen in Rayleigh is completed in circular movements over the surface of the skin, remaining within the limits of the treatment area for between 5 and 30 seconds at a time.
This then allows for the nitrous oxide to freeze the intercellular fluid, rupturing the cells, and encouraging a small blister to form.
After the healing process is completed, the skin lesion will then drop off in time – leaving flawless skin you will be happy to show off.
While it will depend on the skin lesions in question, you may need more than one treatment before your skin is smooth and unmarked, but this all depends on the type, size, and thickness of the lesion requiring cryopen treatment Rayleigh. For instance, skin tags may need just one session while warts can take 3 sessions.
Here at Aesthetics of Rayleigh, our clients have raved about the results they have experienced from the cryopen.

Areas we cover with cryopen treatment in Rayleigh
If undergoing cryopen treatment, we can assist with popular skin imperfections, including:
Milia
Milia are tiny white bumps on the skin, which can appear anywhere, but are mainly seen in a collection under the eyes, on the nose, cheeks, and chin.
Milia occur when skin flakes get trapped and keratin builds up under the surface of the skin. Although they can resolve over time, they mostly require specialised cryopen treatment to permanently remove them.
Skin tags
Skin tags are small, soft, skin-coloured growths on the skin, usually caused by friction, which can be as little as a few millimetres or as much as 5cm wide. No matter what the size of the skin tag, or where it is on your body, we can target it with cryopen treatment in Rayleigh.
Extremely common, non-painful, and completely harmless, they can sometimes be in a position on the body that causes self-esteem issues or where they can become an annoyance, including getting in the way of certain garments.
Sun/age spots
Sun/age spots are small areas of hyperpigmentation presenting on the skin as flat brown or black spots – also known as liver spots – developed by sun exposure or as part of the natural ageing process. Sunspots tend to appear only on the skin which is exposed to the sun, such as the face, neck, shoulders, hands, and forearms.
Totally normal and generally harmless, you should be aware of the different marks on your skin and monitor them for any changes in size or feel, at which point you should seek medical advice.
Warts/verrucas
We’ve all had a wart or verruca at some point in our lives and these are caused by infection of the skin with human papillomavirus (HPV), which can be spread from person to person. This is why it’s very common to come home from the swimming pool with a verruca!
Both warts and verrucas can eventually go on their own, but sometimes it can take years for this to happen. They can be painful – particularly verrucas – and look unsightly, making them the perfect candidates for cryopen treatment in Rayleigh.
Cherry angiomas
A cherry angioma – or a red lesion – is a benign (non-cancerous) dome-shaped growth on the skin, which is composed of blood vessels or capillaries. When you find a cherry angioma – the most common type of angioma – the chances are you will find another one close by.
Whilst the exact reason for cherry angiomas is not known, it is thought that ageing, genetics, stress, and sun exposure could be the reasons.
Xanthelasma
Xanthelasma, or xanthelasma palpebrarum (XP), is a harmless, flat or slightly raised yellow growth that appears on or by the corners of your eyelids next to your nose.
Caused by cholesterol deposits that build up under your skin, they are easy to remove.
