Abstract |
Full face liquid nitrogen cryo spraying of actinically damaged skin accomplishes not only depth-controlled destruction of individual actinic keratoses, but also destruction of surrounding, barely perceptible actinic keratoses, removal of unsightly pigmented surfaces, and removal of seborrheic keratoses and large lentigines. Cryo-peeling imparts a healthier, pinker, smoother, tighter skin surface.
