Cryotherapy

About Cryotherapy

Cryotherapy is the use of extreme cold temperatures to freeze and destroy abnormal or unwanted skin lesions.

Overview

We recommend cryotherapy to shed or eliminate unwanted skin tags, moles, lumps and bumps.

You will be advised about how and if this procedure can help you with your concerns during skin assessment.

Used to Treat

  • Skin tags
  • Moles

WHAT TO EXPECT

During cryotherapy, you may experience a brief sensation of intense cold and tingling at the treatment site. As the procedure continues, the area may become numb, minimising any discomfort.

HOW TO PREPARE FOR TREATMENT

Inform Dr Holmes about any medical conditions, allergies, or medications you are taking. Share any history of cold sensitivity or previous adverse reactions to cryotherapy.
