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

Cryotherapy is for people bothered by small, unwanted skin lesions such as skin tags, age spots or benign bumps that catch, irritate or affect confidence.

 

In clinic, a trained practitioner applies a precise burst of extreme cold to the targeted area, aiming to freeze and destroy the unwanted tissue while protecting the surrounding skin.

 

Treatment is quick, and you can usually return to normal activities straight away. We explain what to expect, possible scabbing or colour changes, aftercare and when cryotherapy may not be appropriate.

CryoIQ Cryotherapy - Skin Tag & Mole Removal

Medical-grade cryotherapy precisely freezes benign skin lesions - such as skin tags, warts/verrucae, seborrhoeic keratoses and cherry angioma - so the treated tissue dries and sheds as the skin heals. Treatment is quick and targeted; you may feel a brief sting as the cold is applied. Most everyday activities can be resumed immediately.

 

Your clinician will confirm that the lesion is suitable for cosmetic cryotherapy; anything suspicious is referred for medical assessment. After treatment a small blister or scab can form; colour changes are common while the area heals. We’ll provide simple aftercare and sun-protection advice. Many lesions resolve with one session; some require a review or repeat once healed.
