Treat skin lesions one part at a time if they are larger than 5mm.

 

Step 2
Disinfect the area prior to treatment to prevent infection.

Step 3
Determine the best treatment. Prepare as necessary the skin lesion prior to applying cyrotherapy. The use of, for example, keratolytic, has no known adverse effect on the performance of the product.

Bleeding warts is to be stopped before using the Cryo Professional.

Step 4
Determine the size of foam stick to use on the skin lesion (2 mm or 5 mm). Place the foam stick in the dispenser.

 

Step 5
Remove the protective cover from the push button and press the bottom to saturate the foam stick with the cryogen until it drips. Hold the dispenser upright while saturating the foam stick and do not point the dispenser in the direction of the patient or other persons in the room.

 

DO NOT activate the dispenser when the foam stick is in contact with the patient. DO NOT re-saturate the foam stick again during treatment as this will reduce foam stick’s reservoir capability and the effectiveness of the treatment.

Step 6
Turn the dispenser horizontally at a 90 degrees angle, with the foam stick pointing towards the ground.

 

Step 7
Wait 15 seconds allowing the foam stick to achieve treatment temperature.

 

Step 8
Place the foam stick against the skin lesion. Keep the foam stick against the skin lesion for the recommended time as listed in the table above.

Keep the foam stick vertically downward during treatment.

 

Step 9
Remove the foam stick from the dispenser after the treatment and dispose of it.
