Minimally invasive outpatient procedure based on the interruption of sensory functions in certain structures of the peripheral nervous system by applying a low temperature (-50°C).

The method uses the cryoneurolysis process, during which the ice crystals created by the CRYO-S Painless®, generator destroy the nerve tissue elements that transmit pain information, without damaging the nerve structures. In this way, nerve tissue can regenerate, without the risk of post-procedural neuroma. This procedure is carried out under ultrasound or scopic guidance.
