Cryotherapy & Plasma Treatment

Unwanted benign skin lesions are no longer treated on the NHS. They can be treated via private dermatologists or highly qualified beauty therapists/aesthetic practitioners. For more details please read this blog piece.

​

Cryotherapy pen allows liquid nitrogen to be sprayed directly onto the tissue, a freeze and thaw cycle ensues, damaging the unwanted tissue. Whilst the treatment will be over, your body will be working at removing the new dead tissue.

​

Plasma pen uses a sterile, disposable probe, which is charged by the current in the pen, to work with the plasma in our blood. This can cauterise lesions in removal. There will be a burning smell emitted during the treatment, this is normal.

The Consultation

We begin with a consultation. I need to know the history of your skin lesion and your medical history to make sure the treatment will not cause you harm. I will look at the lesion(s) and determine the best course of treatment. Depending on the type and size and age of lesion, will depend on whether I use plasma or cryotherapy, how many sessions you may may need and what type of result you can expect. We will discuss what will happen during the procedure, how to prepare and aftercare. Price for treatment will be agreed during the consultation along with setting the date. Skin lesions come in different sizes therefore require different timing lengths which is why a consultation must be performed and pricing will then follow.
