Cryosurgery
Assessment & Treatment of Unwanted Skin Lesions
If you have an unwanted skin tag, wart, seborrhoeic keratosis or another skin lesion that is bothering you, the first step is to have it properly assessed.
At The Wellswood Clinic, Dr Gib Eykyn will examine your skin lesion and advise whether cryosurgery is a suitable treatment option. Cryosurgery uses controlled freezing to destroy unwanted tissue and can provide a quick and effective treatment for a range of suitable benign skin lesions.
Book a consultation with Dr Gib Eykyn to have your skin lesion assessed.
Cryosurgery
Cryosurgery is an advanced freezing innovation that is fast, effective and safe for the removal of benign skin lesions on the face and body.
The CryoPen® Cryosurgery device delivers an ultra-cold jet of high pressure nitrous oxide directly on to skin lesions. The nitrous oxide destroys the skin tissue by freezing the intercellular fluid and forming ice shards that rupture the cells membrane, destroying the cells. The ultra-cold nitrous oxide cuts off the blood supply during the freezing process, ensuring the client’s safety during the process.
Perfect for removal of skin lesions
CryoPen® delivers exeptional results for the complete removal of all benign skin lesions in just one treatment session.

What happens during CryoPen treatment?
CryoPen delivers a controlled jet of nitrous oxide directly onto the lesion, rapidly freezing the unwanted tissue.
The procedure itself usually takes only a short time. You may experience a brief cold, stinging or burning sensation during treatment.
Afterwards, the area may become red, swollen or tender and can occasionally blister or form a small crust. The treated tissue then gradually heals and, depending on the lesion, may shrink or naturally shed.
Some lesions can be successfully treated in one appointment, while others may require further treatment.
