CRYOTHERAPY
At R&R Aesthetics we are able to remove benign skin lesions with CryoPen. We can remove skin lesions such as Skin Tags, Warts, Benign Moles, Age Spots, pigmentation Verruca’s and Cherry Angioma using Cryotherapy. Cryotherapy involves the use of liquified nitrous oxide to destroy unwanted tissue in a controlled manner. The precise application of Cryopen means it does not destroy healthy tissue and is safe for use on the face including the eye area. Cryopen treatment is quick with minimal discomfort, and most lesions can be permanently removed in just one session. Larger and more complex lesions may require follow up appointments. Downtime is not required though the lesion treated will likely blister and scab following the procedure, therefore you may wish to schedule your appointment away from any important events.
Please note that R&R Aesthetics require confirmation in writing from your GP to establish that any moles are benign prior to removal.

Frequently asked questions
Am I a suitable candidate for Cryotherapy?
If you have a benign lesion that you would like removing for cosmetic reasons you may be suitable for Cryotherapy. Consult a medical professional prior to treatment if you suffer with: impaired sensation or circulation, superficial nerves, open wounds, hypersensitivity to cold or cardiac disease. Any moles treated must be assessed by a GP prior to attending your appointment. This treatment is unsuitable in pregnancy.
Is this treatment safe?
Yes. Cryotherapy is a controlled treatment that targets only the affected area avoiding healthy tissues. We use an FDA approved device and our practitioners are medically trained. We will not treat any suspicious lesions without prior approval from a GP.
Is this treatment painful?
Most patients will experience only minimal discomfort during this quick procedure. Some patients may experience mild stinging immediately following treatment.
Does this treatment have any side effects?
A blister or scab may form following treatment. Cryotherapy is a relatively low risk procedure though some side effects may occur including changes to skin colour particularly on darker skins and hair removal if the lesion is situated in an area with hair. Damage to nerves is possible in certain areas, however this is rare and should rectify over time.
Is there any downtime?
There is no down time with Cryotherapy and you may resume your normal activities immediately. However, please be mindful that the area treated can appear a little unsightly and may scab or blister. Therefore, you may wish to schedule your appointment away from any important events.

Caroline was recommended to me by a family member, I’d been nervous about lip fillers for a few years and wanted the person doing it to be trusted and professional. Caroline is both. She is very thorough, her knowledge and skills put me at ease. Her service is flawless every time I visit and I really appreciate how accommodating her appointments are. Highly recommended. I even travel from London to Leeds I love her service that much.

I’ve had two treatments with Caroline so far and have been so pleased with the results. Most recently I have commenced a course of Dermapen facials, I was initially extremely nervous about the procedure but Caroline put me at ease. She is professional and knowledgeable in all her communication and aftercare, and the clinic setting is pristine. I recommend her to all my friends!

Caroline was lovely, her knowledge and professionalism put me at ease. She explained everything thoroughly and was very gentle. Amazing results would definitely recommend.

My wife visited Caroline for a consultation regarding her tear troughs and nasolabial folds. Caroline explained that because both areas were puffy , fillers in these areas would not be suitable and the best results would be from cheek fillers. Caroline showed my wife photographic examples of previous clients and the results cheek fillers had achieved but at no time did it feel like a hard sale. After deciding to proceed with cheek fillers Caroline thoroughly explained the procedure and risks involved and talked to my wife all the way through the procedure to ensure everything was alright. The premises are very clean and modern and Caroline is extremely professional. Would highly recommend.

First time getting my lips done and i couldn’t be happier! I was quite nervous as i wasn’t sure how they might turn out as i have quite little facial features but Caroline was quick to ease any of my worries! She explained every detail of the treatment i was about to receive and carried on doing so through out the whole service, checking i was happy and comfortable at all times. So pleased i chose to come to Caroline and honestly wouldn’t go anywhere else! Not to mention she worked around the times and dates most suitable for myself and opened up shop just for my treatment that day, excellent customer service! I can’t wait to return!
