Skin imperfections such as skin tags, moles and warts? It’s time to freeze them off for good!

Many of us have so-called “skin imperfections” in one place or another. These are the lumps and bumps that are usually harmless, but which can be cosmetically annoying, especially if they appear in a particularly visible place.

Common types of skin imperfections include lesions such as skin tags, warts, moles, milia, cherry angioma, as well as age spots and solar lentigo. Depending on the type, these nuisances can vary in size, shape and colour, and are often linked to our individual genetics. However, even when an imperfection is tiny, it can still have the power to make us self-conscious.

Sound like you? Fortunately, there are ways in which we can fight back and make them a thing of the past, even without surgery.

At Vie Aesthetics, one of our favourite new treatments for the permanent removal of skin imperfections is CryoPen Therapy. This is an advanced type of cryotherapy, a medical procedure, which uses cold temperatures to literally freeze and destroy a lesion and prevent it from returning. It’s simple, but effective and safe, with zero downtime. And procedures last only a matter of seconds – literally.

Using the latest techniques and technology, including the CryoPen device, we direct a short blast of nitrous oxide to the imperfection itself. This freezes the problem area at its root, causing its cells to crystalise, shatter, and then die. In the process, the reproductive DNA is also destroyed, ensuring the abnormality is gone for good.

Our procedure is performed at millimetre precision, guaranteeing that no surrounding healthy skin is affected.
