Many of us experience minor skin blemishes that affect how we feel in our skin. These conditions are more common than you think and often linked to factors such as ageing, UV exposure, or general health.
At Alchemy, we offer two advanced treatment methods for effective, non-invasive removal of unwanted skin lesions and blemishes:
🧊 Cryotherapy (CryoPen™) – a precision freezing technique
🔥 Advanced Electrolysis – a heat-based cauterisation method
Each method is selected based on the type, size, and location of the concern, ensuring the safest and most effective outcome for your skin.
CryoPen uses a fine, high-pressure jet of nitrous oxide (not liquid nitrogen) to freeze and destroy targeted skin tissue. It’s quick, painless, and leaves surrounding healthy skin unaffected.
Ideal for:
This is a precise and safe option that typically takes just 5–25 seconds per lesion.
Electrolysis uses thermolysis current via a fine probe to either cauterise or lift away unwanted blemishes. It’s highly effective for vascular and superficial skin issues and delivers instant results in most cases.
Ideal for:
Each session lasts up to 20 minutes and we treat as many concerns as possible within that time.
✔️ Broken capillaries
✔️ Cherry angiomas
✔️ Milia
✔️ Warts & verrucae
✔️ Age spots and pigmentation
✔️ Skin tags
✔️ Seborrheic keratoses
✔️ Solar keratosis
Depending on your concern, one or both methods may be used to achieve optimal results.
Please note that all suspicious, undiagnosed lesions will require medical diagnoses Drs written consent.

Yes. In most cases, we can advise over the phone, but an in-person consultation ensures we can safely assess your skin and determine the best method. This can be performed on the day of treatment.
Cryotherapy uses cold (nitrous oxide) to freeze the lesion, while Electrolysis uses heat to cauterise or lift away the blemish. Your treatment will be chosen based on the concern.
Yes, there may be a short period of downtime depending on which treatment you have.

🔹 Advanced Electrolysis:
Possibly. Some lesions (like warts or age spots) can be stubborn. We limit warts and verrucae to three treatments per lesion. Pigmentation may require multiple sessions depending on the size of the area, you may require alternative treatments such as microneedling or peels.
Yes, within reason. During Electrolysis, as many blemishes as possible are treated in a 20-minute session. With Cryotherapy, lesions are priced individually based on size and number.
