Cryotherapy for Skin Lesions

(CryoPen® Treatment)

Cryotherapy is a precise medical treatment used for the removal of benign skin lesions such as skin tags, age spots, sun spots, milia, cherry angiomas, and certain types of warts. The treatment works by delivering controlled cold therapy to the targeted area, freezing the lesion while minimising damage to the surrounding skin.

At Dr RB Aesthetics, doctor-led cryotherapy treatments for skin lesions in Leicestershire are carried out by Dr Ruchira, a GP specialising in medical aesthetics, with a strong emphasis on safety, accurate assessment, and natural skin outcomes. A medical device known as CryoPen® is used to deliver highly controlled cryotherapy, allowing precise treatment of both facial and body lesions.

Unlike over-the-counter freezing products or non-medical treatments, CryoPen® provides targeted, medical-grade cryotherapy, making it suitable for visible or delicate areas where accuracy is important. Each treatment is tailored to the type of lesion and your individual skin characteristics.

Most treatments are quick, with minimal downtime, and the skin gradually heals over the following days to weeks as the lesion resolves.

Who is this treatment suitable for?

Cryotherapy for skin lesions may be suitable for individuals who:

  • Have benign skin concerns such as skin tags, milia, cherry angiomas, or pigmentation spots

  • Are seeking doctor-led cryotherapy for cosmetic skin lesion removal

  • Prefer a precise, medical approach rather than over-the-counter treatments

  • Want a non-surgical treatment with minimal downtime

Suitability is always confirmed following a comprehensive medical consultation and skin assessment. Dr Ruchira will carefully assess the lesion to ensure it is appropriate for cosmetic treatment and will tailor the cryotherapy approach based on your skin type, medical history, and treatment goals. If a lesion requires further medical review/referral or is not suitable for cryotherapy, you will be advised accordingly.
