Gentle, Effective Cryotherapy Treatment for Raised Skin Bumps
Dermatofibromas are common, benign skin growths that usually appear as firm, raised bumps on the arms, legs, shoulders, or other areas of the body. They are harmless but can be uncomfortable, itchy, catch on clothing, or cause self-consciousness.
Our Cryosonic team will provide professional Dermatofibroma removal using the latest cryotherapy techniques that are safe, accurate, and non-invasive.
Most of the time, these growths are harmless and pose no medical risk, though they may be bothersome or rub if found in areas where skin rubs together.
People usually remove for the following reasons:
How Our Treatment Works
We use CryoPen® cryotherapy technology, which delivers a controlled stream of intense cold to the dermatofibroma. This process destroys the targeted tissue while preserving the surrounding healthy skin.
The cold causes the dermatofibroma to freeze, dry out, and finally disintegrate during treatment. In the days that follow, the treated patch of skin becomes a tiny scab that eventually sheds, revealing smoother skin below.
What to Expect After Treatment
After cryotherapy:
Because no cutting is performed, the potential for cosmetic scarring should be less than with surgical excision.
Is dermatofibroma removal safe?
Yes — cryotherapy is a well-established, safe approach to removing benign skin lesions when performed by experienced practitioners.
Will the dermatofibroma come back?
Recurrence in the same spot is uncommon after successful cryotherapy, although new dermatofibromas may appear elsewhere.
Does the procedure hurt?
Most clients describe only a brief sensation of cold or mild tingling. Discomfort is typically minimal.
How long does recovery take?
Healing occurs very quickly, generally within a few weeks, as the skin regenerates.
