Cryotherapy offers a precise and efficient solution for eliminating skin lesions and imperfections through the application of an ultra-cold, fine Nitrous Oxide stream. If you're in search of a secure, non-surgical option for the removal of warts, verrucae, skin tags, or other bothersome skin conditions, our Cryotherapy Service is the answer.

How it Works

Cryotherapy involves freezing the intercellular fluid, causing it to form ice shards and crystals that disrupt cell membranes. This process effectively destroys the affected cells without harming surrounding healthy tissue. So accurate and practical, cryotherapy offers a safe and effective way to treat various conditions.

Who is it suitable for

Cryotherapy is suitable for individuals with various skin concerns, including:

  • Warts and verrucae
  • Skin tags
  • Milia
  • Cherry angioma
  • Pigmentation
  • Pigmented moles
  • Keratosis

By undergoing Cryotherapy treatment, patients can effectively and painlessly remove these skin conditions.

How Many Cryotherapy Treatments Do I Need?

If you're dealing with multiple issues or a particularly stubborn skin condition, it's likely that a single session won't suffice. Considering the skin's regeneration cycle is about 28 days, any additional treatments should be scheduled after this time to allow for cellular renewal.

What Are the Side Effects of the Cryotherapy Service?

Cryotherapy is entirely safe and delivers outstanding results. The side effects are minimal and may include itching, redness, mild blistering, or scabs. It's important to follow our aftercare advice and avoid picking or scratching the area to minimise irritation and promote better healing.
