Non-Invasive Treatment For Removing Benign Skin Lesions

NO ANESTHESIA. NO DOWNTIME. NO SCARS.

Cryotherapy is the controlled elimination of unwanted tissue by the precise

application of extreme cold.

Today, cryotherapy is the gold standard for removal of skin lesions in dermatology

and aesthetic practices. A cryogenic gas called Nitrous Oxide (N2O) is used

to target and freeze the lesion, while avoiding damage the surrounding healthy tissue. 

After the treatment, the lesion will gradually fall off, new skin forms and the area returns to its original colour.

Frequently Asked Questions

Please reach us at info@skinwithinaesthetics.ca if you cannot find an answer to your question.

FreezPen treats all types of common non-malignant skin lesions: warts, dark spots, liver/age spots, skin tags, moles, keratosis, angiomas, fibromas, milia, molluscum contagiosum and more. Please note that any types of malignant or suspicious growths need to be treated by a certified dermatologist.


New skin growths (especially moles) are potentially malignant and need to be evaluated by a dermatologist first. Only stable lesions that are not evolving over time are suitable for cryotherapy treatments. Consult with a certified physician to make sure your new mole is a non-malignant growth before removing it with FreezPen.


Yes, FreezPen treatment is safe for everybody.


FreezPen cryotherapy is a non-invasive treatment that involves minimal discomfort and does not require anesthesia or stitches. FreezPen treatment has no downtime and it significantly reduces the risk of scars and other complications. Treatment is quick and does not require special post-op care.


As many as you like. There is no limit on the number of lesions per session.


FreezPen treatment usually takes no more than a few minutes. The duration of the treatment depends on the number of treated lesions, the number of freeze-thaw cycles and the duration of freezing.


Your lesion is expected to fall off 2-4 weeks

after the treatment. Some lesions are more

persistent and may take longer to disappear.


The treatment is comfortable, and doesn’t

hurt. It feels like a light pinch. There is no

need for local anesthesia.


Immediately after. Freezpen treatments

involve zero downtime.


Most lesions require 1-3 treatments. Large and

stubborn lesions, such as plantar warts, may

require additional sessions.


No. Freezpen is a non-invasive treatment.

Temporary blistering may occur, but there will

be no permanent scars or marks left on

your skin.


Generally, there is no post-treatment care regime and you may resume your daily activities immediately after the treatment. We do advise patients to apply healing ointments (such as Aquaphor) on the area of the treatment to speed up the healing process.


Although FreezPen cryotherapy is the safest treatment today for the removal of skin lesions, a few rare side effects may still occur. These side effects include:

  • Pigmentation – Temporary pigmentation is rare but possible because melanocytes are more susceptible to sub-zero temperatures. FreezPen minimizes the risk of collateral damage to healthy skin tissue, so the risk of pigmentation is minimized as well.
  • Blisters – temporary blisters may appear in the lesion area due to fluids that are released from destroyed lesion cells.
  • Hair loss – like melanocytes, hair follicles are more susceptible to sub-zero temperatures. Hair follicles in the treated area are more likely to be affected, thus hair may not grow back in the area of the lesion after cryotherapy.
