The procedure is performed by puncture of a cryoneedle using ultrasound guidance. This technique to cause destruction in an ambulatory, safe, and virtually painless way, with impressive aesthetic results and without cosmetic damage for the patient.

Cryosurgery therapy for breast cancer can be performed with interesting results but in very selected cases and studies monitored and approved by the regulatory authorities (Ministry of health, Ethical Committee for Health and the Collegial and Hospital Medical Organisation).

In the USA over the last 10 years, studies have been carried out on possibility of treating benign lesions which can cause problems due to their growth or alterations in size which causes physical and psychological damage.

It is a quick procedure, between 15 and 20 minutes long depending on the area treated and the patient's circumstances. In addition, no pain, and the patient can return to normal activity immediately.
