A simple and effective handheld Cryotherapy device for accurate treatment of skin lesions making it perfect for general practice, dermatology, podiatry and minor surgery applications.
CryoSuccess incorporates a new improved safety design which allows easy on/off fitting of the cartridge. The device can be kept in a drawer ready for use at any time. And the cartridge can be removed at any time - for longer term storage or transport - and then rapidly reconnected.
The tip is made from a soda clear glass capillary with a diameter of 80 um.
To apply the cryogenic liquid gas, the dispenser tip is touched against the skin surface so that the escaping liquid gas directly touches the surface before a gaseous phase transition takes place.
The liquid gas travels at a mean speed of 40 m/s in a phase stable state (gaseous state), enabling cells to be destroyed accurately and safely. For example a target area with a diameter of 10 mm and a depth of 3 mm can be frozen to -40° within 12 seconds which will ultimately result in absolute cell destruction.
Apply the Cryosuccess tip vertically directly to the skin, this ensure thats that the nitrous oxide penetrates into the skin & freezes the deeper skin tissue, it also ensure thats that the application temperature is a constant -89C. Applying the Cryosuccess for 10 seconds to an area will result in a penetration of 3-4 mm, a diameter of 10mm and a final penetration temperature of -40C.
