Cryosurgury Treatment
Cryosurgery is a highly effective and safe procedure that is used to freeze and destroy benign skin lesions.
It uses liquefield nitrous oxide to destroy the tissue by freezing the cell fluid which in turn forms ice shards that rupture the cell membrane in turn destroying the cell and the lesion.
Cryotherapy is beneficial as it is quicker than other treatments ensuring you can be in and out in seconds. It requires no anasthesia and has minimal scaring. There are no limitations on activities (except protecting the area from damage or abrasion) and patients can return to normal activities after treatment.
