Avid Skin Biology user here but has anyone heard about cryophobe? It is treatment to remove age spots and hyperpigmentation (apparently instantly) with minimal down time. Anyone?

Sorry I just realized I mispelled it. It is called cryoprobe or cryo probe.

Sounds fascinating. Not my issue at this time but I googled it and it sounds great. Seems 'harmless' to try on someplace that you don't care about so much.

But of course I would need to read much more, maybe by the time I need to worry, it will be mainstream. Or maybe I will never need to worry as CP's will prevent them...?

This is a way of removing various skin lesions in the same manner that liquid nitrogen has been used.

The skin is frozen and the frozen lesion drops off. This is a little like abrasion.
