CryoPen 4: Skin Tag, Pigmentation & Mole Removal in Melbourne

Looking at removing skin tags, moles, or pigmented spots can feel confusing. Many people aren’t sure whether to see a dermatologist, a surgeon, or another specialist. The good news? It doesn’t have to be complicated. With modern cryotherapy, a wide range of skin lesions can be safely treated in a precise, minimally invasive way—often in a single treatment with little downtime and at a fraction of the cost of more invasive procedures.

At our Melbourne clinic, we use CryoPen 4, a professional cryotherapy system that allows us to remove skin tags, moles, hemangiomas and pigmented lesions safely and effectively, all in a quick, comfortable treatment session.

Pigmentation & Pigmented Lesions

Pigmented lesions, including age spots, freckles, and other localized pigmentation, can often be treated effectively with CryoPen. Ideal candidates are lesions that are well-defined and not “hazy” in appearance.

The treatment involves a controlled application of extreme cold, which destroys the pigmented cells while leaving surrounding skin unharmed. Over the following days, the treated area may blister, then scab, and finally reveal fresh, pink skin. The tone of your skin gradually normalizes over six to twelve weeks.

Because everyone’s skin responds differently depending on age and the area treated, most people achieve complete removal with a single session, although some may require follow-up treatments for optimal results.

Mole Removal

Moles can also be treated with CryoPen, provided you have clearance from your doctor to ensure the mole is safe (non-cancerous) to treat. Mole removal with cryotherapy is quick, precise, and avoids the need for more invasive excision procedures in appropriate cases.

Your skin will go through the same healing process as pigmented lesions: blistering, scabbing, and gradual pinkness that fades over several weeks. Cryotherapy allows for a targeted, minimally invasive approach to mole removal with predictable results and little disruption to your daily life.

Skin Tag Removal

Skin tags—small, benign growths often found on the neck, underarms, or eyelids—are extremely common and can be removed easily with CryoPen. The treatment is fast, virtually painless, and highly effective. Healing follows the familiar pattern of blistering, scabbing, and skin regeneration, with most skin tags disappearing completely after a single session.

Cryotherapy allows you to remove multiple skin tags in one visit with minimal discomfort and no downtime.

Why I’m Passionate About Cryotherapy

I’m passionate about offering CryoPen treatments because they provide quick, effective solutions for concerns like mole removal, skin tag removal, pigmentation treatment, and hemangioma removal—without the downtime or complexity of more invasive procedures. But my approach goes beyond simply treating a lesion. I’m deeply committed to holistic skin health, which means each client benefits from a complete care plan that prioritizes the long-term health, balance, and vitality of their skin.

Many clients combine their CryoPen treatments with customised facials, where we support recovery, restore skin health, and proactively target concerns to maintain optimal results. I see cryotherapy not just as a “fix” for specific spots, but as part of a broader approach to healthy, vibrant skin—helping you feel confident, cared for, and nourished at every stage of your treatment journey.

What to Expect During & After Your Cryotherapy Treatment

• During treatment: You may feel a cold sensation while the CryoPen targets the lesion. The procedure is quick, typically only a few minutes per lesion.

• Healing process: Treated areas may blister in the first 5 days, then scab, and eventually reveal fresh skin. Pinkness may persist for 6–12 weeks depending on your skin type and the area treated.

• Effectiveness: Most lesions resolve after a single session, but some may need additional treatment depending on the lesion depth and the skin’s response. Deeper moles or darker/deep pigmentation might require more than one treatment.

• Avoid swimming for 24 hours.

• Avoid soaking or prolonged heat (sauna, hot yoga, direct sun) for 24 hours.

• Do not pick or scratch the treated area.

• Makeup is permitted after 12 hours.
