CRYOTHERAPY
Cryotherapy Skin Lesion & Cosmetic Removal in Clare, Suffolk
A fast, effective and non-invasive way to remove skin tags, warts, pigmentation & more.
What Is Cryotherapy?
Cryotherapy is a non-surgical treatment that uses extremely cold temperatures (delivered via a precision CryoPen) to remove unwanted skin lesions quickly and safely. It works by freezing the water within skin cells, causing the targeted tissue to break down and be naturally eliminated by the body.
At Derma Clinic Clare, cryotherapy is performed by experienced medical practitioners and is suitable for both medical and cosmetic skin concerns.
What Can Cryotherapy Treat?
Cryotherapy is ideal for treating:
-
Skin tags
-
Age spots & liver spots
-
Pigmentation marks
-
Cherry angiomas (red spots)
-
Warts & verrucas
-
Seborrhoeic keratoses
-
Milia
-
Some moles (assessment required)
Lesions are assessed beforehand to ensure suitability, and referral may be advised for anything suspicious.
What to Expect from Your Cryotherapy Appointment
-
Your skin will be assessed and cleansed.
-
A focused jet of nitrous oxide is applied to the lesion using a handheld CryoPen.
-
Treatment lasts a few seconds to a minute, depending on the size and depth.
-
The area may blister or scab as part of the natural healing process.
-
Most clients need only 1–2 sessions, with minimal aftercare.
How Long Until I See Results?
Healing usually begins within a few days, and full results are typically seen in 1–4 weeks depending on the lesion type and your skin's healing response. The area will gradually clear as the skin regenerates.
Multiple or stubborn lesions (like warts or verrucas) may require additional sessions.

Frequently asked questions
Q: Is cryotherapy painful?
A: Most clients feel only a short burst of cold with slight stinging. The area may tingle or feel sore for a few hours after, but this usually resolves quickly.
Q: Is there downtime?
A: Very minimal. You may see mild redness, swelling or scabbing, but most people return to normal activities straight away.
Q: How many sessions will I need?
A: Many lesions resolve in one session, though stubborn warts or thicker growths may need 2–3.
Q: Can you treat all skin types?
A: Yes, but we tailor treatment to your skin tone and lesion type to avoid pigmentation changes. A patch test may be offered for safety.
Q: Will it leave a scar?
A: When performed correctly, cryotherapy carries a low risk of scarring. Aftercare is important to ensure optimal healing.
