What is Cryotherapy Skin Tag Treatment at The London Road Clinic?

Medical-grade cryotherapy is a precise way to remove certain benign skin lesions, including skin tags, warts or verrucae, seborrhoeic keratoses, and cherry angiomas. A controlled burst of cold is applied so the treated tissue dries and sheds as the skin heals. Treatment is quick and targeted. You may feel a brief sting, and you can usually return to normal plans straight away.

Your clinician will assess the lesion first to confirm it’s suitable for cosmetic cryotherapy. If anything looks unusual, we’ll recommend medical assessment rather than treating it in clinic. After treatment, redness and mild swelling are common. A small blister or scab can form, and temporary colour changes can occur as the area heals. We’ll provide simple aftercare and sun-protection advice. Many lesions resolve in one session, though some need a review or a second treatment once healed.
