Cryotherapy is a method used to treat skin lesions. This treatment uses liquid nitrogen to freeze and destroy unwanted tissue in the skin. Cryotherapy is effective in treating warts, solar keratoses, seborrheic keratoses, and some types of skin cancer.
During the treatment, liquid nitrogen is applied to the lesion and it is destroyed by freezing. The procedure is usually quick and does not require anesthesia. There may be slight redness and crusting on the skin after the procedure, but these side effects disappear in a short time. Cryotherapy is a safe and effective treatment method, leaves minimal scarring on the skin and usually only one session is sufficient. This method provides definitive and rapid removal of skin lesions.
