Targeted Cryotherapy, With Assessment First
CryoPen is a handheld cryotherapy device that applies a small, controlled area of cold to a selected skin concern.
The treated area responds and heals over the following days or weeks. Nicole considers the type of mark, its location, your skin and your medical history before recommending treatment.
It may be an option for suitable skin tags and selected benign superficial pigmentation.
Your consultation determines whether CryoPen, another treatment or medical assessment is the most appropriate next step.
Assessment Comes First
A new, changing, irregular, bleeding or unexplained mark should be assessed by a GP or dermatologist before cosmetic removal. Cryotherapy is not a substitute for diagnosis.
See CryoPen in Use
CryoPen allows a small, selected area of skin to be treated using controlled cold.
Cryotherapy is considered only after the mark and your suitability have been assessed.
The treatment shown demonstrates the CryoPen process rather than a diagnosis or a promised outcome.
What to Expect
Your appointment begins with an assessment so Nicole can determine whether CryoPen is suitable for your particular skin concern.
Consultation
Discuss the mark, relevant history, treatment options and whether medical review is needed.
Treatment
If suitable, Nicole applies controlled cold to the selected area. You may feel brief cold or stinging.
Healing
The area may redden, swell, blister, darken or crust before healing. Follow the individual aftercare guidance provided.
Before and After Treatment
This client photograph shows the appearance of cheek pigmentation before and after treatment.
This illustrates one individual outcome. The type of mark, suitability, number of treatments and healing response differ from person to person.
Individual results vary.
Healing, Risks & Aftercare
Allow a blister or crust to heal naturally and avoid picking the area.
Follow the instructions given at your appointment, including advice on cleansing and sun protection.
Healing time and whether a further session is useful depend on the mark and treatment site.
What Can Happen After Treatment?
Possible effects include discomfort, redness, blistering, a lighter or darker patch of skin and, occasionally, scarring.
Nicole will discuss the risks relevant to your skin and proposed treatment before you decide whether to proceed.

It can be considered for a suitable benign skin tag after assessment.

Some superficial benign pigmentation may be suitable. Pigmented marks have different causes, so assessment comes first.

This depends on the concern and how it responds. A single session cannot be promised.
Will I need downtime?
The site may remain visibly red, blistered or crusted while it heals.
Can you freeze a mole?
An undiagnosed or changing mole needs medical assessment before cosmetic removal is considered.
