Quick answer

Cryotherapy uses controlled cold to treat skin. Liquid nitrogen is applied to freeze and remove benign lesions such as warts, skin tags and actinic keratoses, while cryo facials use cold air or a probe to calm redness, reduce puffiness and refresh the skin. Lesion treatment takes minutes, and treated spots may blister, scab or peel before healing in about 1–2 weeks. In Gangnam a single small lesion typically costs ₩30,000–₩100,000.

What Is Cryo Treatment?

Cryo, short for cryotherapy, uses controlled cold temperatures to target various skin and body concerns. In aesthetic dermatology, cryo is commonly used to treat pigment lesions, warts, skin tags, and for skin rejuvenation. Some clinics also offer cryo facials and cryo body slimming treatments, depending on the equipment and technology used. In Seoul, cryo treatments are widely used for both medical dermatology and cosmetic skin care.

Types of Cryo Treatments Offered

  • Cryotherapy (Liquid Nitrogen): Used for removing warts, skin tags, actinic keratosis, and other benign skin lesions.
  • Cryo Facial: Uses controlled cold air or devices to calm inflammation, reduce redness, tighten pores, and improve circulation.
  • Cryo Body Slimming: Uses cold temperatures to target localized fat deposits and improve body contour (different from traditional cryolipolysis but sometimes combined).
