Safely Remove blemishes without scarring skin

Advanced Cosmetic Blemish Removal

Many cosmetic blemishes are no longer treated by the NHS, but advanced electrolysis and cryopen treatments are quick, safe and an effective way to treat these conditions without scarring the skin. Often only one treatment is required.

Our blemish removal services offer numerous benefits, including improved skin appearance and boosted confidence. We specialise in treating various skin blemishes such as:

Spider naevi. A central red ‘body’ for capillaries with small ‘legs’ radiating outwards.
Red thread veins. Small red veins on the face can effectively be removed with short wave diathermy.
Skin tags small benign growths on the neck, under arms, groin, eyelid caused by skin chafes against skin, clothing against skin or jewellery against skin. These can be removed with short wave diathermy or Cryopen.
Seborrhoeic keratosis. Sometimes called the ‘barnacles of old age’, these warty plaques usually occur on the torso and are often quite disfiguring. We can remove these with Cryopen.
Wart removal. Safe and effective wart removal with Cryopen. Individual wart removal is classed as a viral treatment and may require more than one session. Treated with
Cryopen.
Milia. Small, hard, pearly lumps sometimes known as ‘milk spots’ can easily be removed with short wave diathermy or Cryopen.
Pigment patches. Dark brown patches can be removed easily with Cryopen.

What is Cryosurgery?

Cryosurgery involves the use of a device called a Cryopen to deliver a jet of high pressure nitrous oxide, at a temperature of -89 degrees Celsius, directly to benign skin lesions. The Cryopen targets and removes lesions with extreme precision and destroys the tissue by freezing intercellular fluid therefore causing cell death or necrosis. Healthy surrounding tissue is not affected by treatment.

Treatment is relatively pain free and generally takes under a minute to deliver the desired result. A wide range of benign lesions can be effectively removed using Cryosurgery.

Conditions we can help you with

Thread Vein

Thread veins, also known as spider veins, are small, dilated blood vessels visible near the surface of the skin. Our diathermy treatment effectively reduces their appearance.

Spider Naevi

Spider naevi are small, spider-like clusters of blood vessels that can appear on the face and body. Diathermy can safely and efficiently remove these blemishes.

Skin Tags

Skin tags are small, benign growths that commonly appear in areas where the skin folds. Diathermy offers a quick and painless removal solution.

Milia

These are white, pearly, rounded lumps which occur in the uppermost layer of the skin when sebum (the oil produced naturally by the skin) becomes trapped in a blind duct.

Cherry Angiomas

Sometimes known as blood spots or Campdell De Morgan spots. They are most commonly caused genetics or sometimes sun exposure.

Warts and Verrucas

Avoid the use of antihistamines for at least 3 days prior to treatment
Do not use any active topical creams (steroid or retinol) on the area for at least 3 days prior to treatment

What Should I Expect After Treatment?

It is common for the area to be red and inflamed after treatment. The area may then blister and this can last a few days before eventually turning into a scab. The scab should not be picked and will fall off on its own in 2 weeks, however this may take up to 4 weeks depending on the size of the lesion removed. Temporary pigmentation (change of skin colour) may occur in the area that has been treated and this will gradually return to your skins normal colour.

Some larger lesions may take more than one treatment, the estimated number of treatments and subsequent cost will be discussed at your initial consultation to allow you to make a decision on whether treatment is suitable for you.

Aftercare

Avoid any extremes of temperature for the next week – saunas / steam rooms / sunbeds / hot baths
Do not touch the area and gently cleanse round the area with a clean tissue/towel
Do not pick, scratch or rub scabs and do not burst any blisters due to the risk of scarring and infection
Do not take antihistamines for 3 days after treatment
Use SPF50 on new skin when the lesion has healed
