Removal of Skin Lesions

Skin Tags & Warts

Cryotherapy vs. Sterex (ACP) Electrolysis

Which skin imperfection treatment is right for you?

At TW Aesthetics, we offer two highly effective, non-surgical treatments for removing common skin imperfections: Cryotherapy and Sterex (ACP) Electrolysis. Both are safe and precise methods for treating benign skin lesions such as warts, skin tags, and age spots — but they work in slightly different ways.

Here’s a simple guide to help you decide:

Cryotherapy

Cryotherapy is a quick, safe, and effective treatment for removing common skin imperfections such as warts, skin tags, and other benign lesions. The procedure uses a precise application of extreme cold (liquid nitrogen or nitrous oxide) to freeze and destroy the unwanted skin cells, allowing healthy skin to heal naturally in its place.

This non-invasive treatment is suitable for clients looking for a fast and effective way to clear small skin concerns with minimal downtime.

Benefits

  • Quick treatment — usually only takes a few minutes
  • Non-invasive, no needles
  • Minimal discomfort and downtime
  • Precise — targets only the lesion

Sterex (ACP) Electrolysis?

Sterex Advanced Cosmetic Procedures (ACP) electrolysis is a safe, effective, and non-surgical treatment used to remove or reduce a wide range of common skin imperfections. It works by delivering a tiny current through a fine probe directly into the lesion, causing it to break down and allowing the skin to heal naturally.

This treatment is highly versatile and can successfully treat many benign skin imperfections such as skin tags, warts, thread veins, and milia — leaving your skin clearer and smoother.

Benefits

  • Highly versatile — treats a wide variety of imperfections
  • Suitable for both face and body
  • Permanent removal of most lesions
  • Precise, targeted treatment

Both offer the ideal treatment for:

Cosmetic Skin Lesions

  • Skin tags
  • Milia
  • Dermatosis Papulosa Nigra (dpn)
  • Sunspots
  • Age spots
  • Liver spots
  • Pigmentation
  • Cherry angiomas
  • Campbell De Morgan spots

Medical Skin Lesions

  • Moles
  • Viral warts
  • Verrucae
  • Seborrhoeic warts
  • Keloid scars
  • Fibrous papules
  • Birthmarks
  • Fibromasactinic
  • Solar keratoses
  • Haemangiomas

Which Treatment Should I Choose?

Cryotherapy is ideal if you’re looking for a quick, freezing-based treatment for warts, tags, or age spots.

Sterex (ACP) Electrolysis is better if you have thread veins, milia, or a wider range of skin imperfections that may not respond as well to freezing.

Both treatments are safe, effective, and minimally invasive.

Your practitioner will assess your skin during consultation and recommend the best option for your specific concern.

(All lesions are assessed at consultation to ensure suitability for treatment.)
