SK are harmless skin growths that develop as disc-shaped patches of brown, black or light tan. They may be raised and appear a bit waxy or “stuck on” the skin. CryoPen Seborrheic Keratosis Treatment at Lipo Sculpt is a popular option for those looking to safely remove these lesions with precision.
Although they are generally harmless and may not require treatment, many people have them removed because they chafe against clothes or take on an unusual appearance.

Q: What is the treatment for seborrheic keratosis through CryoPen?
Q: What is the treatment?A: Cryopen treatment works by freezing and destroying growths on the skin through application of a high pressure jet of ultra-cold nitrous oxide. Your body’s own healing process then ‘clears’ the treated cells.
Q: Is the treatment painful?
A: The majority of patients experience little more than a mild stinging or cooling feeling for a few seconds while the freeze takes place and very little, if any, discomfort after.
Q: Will there be a lull?
A: There is minimal to no down time. You might experience a scab or crust developing, slight redness or some mild swelling but you can usually go back to work immediately with caution.
Q: How many treatments will I require?
A: Many times, just one treatment for regular seborrheic lesions. Most raised or thick lesions may require a second treatment 4-6 weeks after the initial visit to ensure they are fully destroyed.
Q: Will it recur, or new ones form?
A: The treated lesion should be eradicated permanently. But since seborrheic keratoses can arise spontaneously elsewhere as we get older, it is not uncommon for other lesions to crop up even if this one is treated. New spots may also not be treated, and the underlying susceptibility remains.
Q: Are there any risks or side effects?
Q: What are the side effects? A: The side effects are generally limited to temporary redness, swelling, blistering or crust formation and changes in skin color (lighter or darker), particularly in patients with darker skin.
Q: Can a CryoPen be used on any seborrheic keratosis?
A: Most are fine, but very thick or irregular lesions that are changing rapidly or any suspicious lesion should be evaluated first by a dermatologist. We do full evaluation to guarantee secure treatment. Cryopen is FDA-approved.
Q: Will I have a scar from the treatment?
A: When done properly, scarring is very rare. There may be some short-term change in skin pigmentation, mainly affecting darker skins. Good aftercare and staying out of sun will minimize risks.
Q: When do you see results?
A: The cold sore can become a scab, then tumble off between 1-2 weeks. The skin underneath heals and becomes normal over time. Some cosmetic results are visible right away, and the full result of your treatment may take a few weeks.
Q: What kind of pre-treatment do I have to receive?
A: Yes the treatment area is required to be clean without active sunburn or recent tan. We’ll advise you on any skin-care products to take a break from (e.g., potent retinols) and discuss your medical history during consultation.
