What Is CryoCorrect?

CryoCorrect is an in-office, non-invasive cryotechnology treatment that removes skin tags, age spots and sun spots as well as other blemishes. Cryotherapy works by cooling skin tissue to subzero temperatures, causing the targeted cells to die and be shed from the skin. 

The CryoCorrect Precision tool precisely and quickly freezes off blemishes with minimal discomfort and no downtime.

What Can You Treat with CryoCorrect?

CryoCorrect addresses stubborn skin blemishes anywhere on the face, neck, hands and body. It’s often performed as a second-line treatment after another procedure such as a laser treatment, microdermabrasion or facial to spot-correct any problem areas. 

Some common conditions treated with CryoCorrect are:

  • Hyperpigmentation, including stubborn age spots, dark spots and brown spots 
  • Keloids
  • Moles 
  • Skin tags
  • Warts

CryoCorrect is currently only FDA-approved for cosmetic use, However, cryotherapy as a whole is widely used to remove skin lesions such as actinic keratosis that may develop into cancer, and CryoCorrect is often used off-label for this purpose.

Why We Use CryoCorrect for Skin Blemish Removal

The CryoCorrect Precision tool performs gentle but thorough removal of blemishes that can’t be removed by other treatments. While traditional cryotherapy uses liquid nitrogen, CryoCorrect uses liquid carbon dioxide, which freezes at a higher temperature. This results in a shallower freeze than traditional cryotherapy, resulting in less risk of damage to the surrounding tissue.

Ideal Candidates for CryoCorrect Treatments

CryoCorrect is ideal for men and women with lighter skin tones who are generally happy with their skin’s appearance, but have specific spots of concern on the face, hands or body they’d like to address. These include:

  • Dark spots
  • Keloid scars
  • Moles
  • Warts
  • Skin lesions
  • Skin tags

CryoCorrect is not recommended for people with darker skin tones (Fitzpatrick types IV-VI) as it may cause unwanted discoloration.

Before & Afters

On the day of treatment, the treated area will darken and remain so for 3–5 days. A scab will form afterwards, which falls off around 2–3 weeks later. 

The healing process varies between patients, but complete recovery usually takes 4–12 weeks.

What to Expect from Your CryoCorrect Treatment

A CryoCorrect treatment is a fast, in-office procedure. Each treatment performed with the pen-like CryoCorrect Precision device lasts 5-8 seconds. Because the process is non-invasive and superficial, there is no downtime and you can resume your daily activities immediately.

Cost of CryoCorrect in Baltimore, Maryland
