If using Cryotherapy, the quick-freezing technique kills the localised cells in the area which
cause them to shrivel and die. The treated area may go darker and form a light scab over
the course of a few weeks but will return to normal pigmented skin in about 6 weeks. You
must allow the time for your skin to return to normal before returning for your check up and
continue to apply a high SPF after the pigment has been removed to stop the lesion from
returning. Normally one treatment is sufficient for pigmentation using Cryotherapy, other
lesions may require several treatments before full reduction.
If using Plasma, a numbing cream will be applied to minimise the discomfort from the heat
that plasma uses to immediately remove the lesion. Once the lesion is removed, a light scab
may form. It is important to keep the areas clean after removal to avoid infection. One
treatment is usually only required from the plasma treatment, but this will be explained at
your consultation if you may need another treatment due to the size of the original lesion.

In a nutshell, Plasma can immediately remove the lesion in question, Cryotherapy also work
alongside your own bodies immune system to remove the lesion over the course of the few
weeks. The choice of which one you choose is up to you.
