The treatment
Cryotherapy Skin Tag & Lesion Removal: how it works
Cryotherapy delivers a controlled burst of extreme cold to freeze selected benign skin lesions. The treated tissue then dries and naturally sheds over days to weeks as the surrounding skin heals. At The London Road Clinic, it is carried out by Jaz Martin or Laura Baneviciute, Senior Aesthetic Practitioners, who assess the lesion first to confirm it suits cryotherapy. Freezing can leave lighter skin and suits fair skin best. Anything suspicious is referred for medical review rather than treated. Lesions that need cutting out, shaving or cautery are removed by Dr Shahe Boghossian instead.

Is this treatment right for you?
Suitable for
- Adults bothered by suitable benign lesions such as skin tags, warts or verrucae, seborrhoeic keratoses and cherry angiomas, once a practitioner confirms they suit cryotherapy.
Not suitable for
- Suspicious or diagnostically uncertain lesions are not appropriate for routine cosmetic cryotherapy and should be referred for medical assessment first.
In their own words
Went for Cryotherapy on a few skin lesions today. I expressed my worries about having it on my face and not once was this service pushed on me. I was offered time to rethink in an unhurried way. I decided to go ahead anyway and Jaz checked in on me throughout the procedure. Great to know that they only want the best for their clients and have a great deal of care from the minute you walk in the practice, new or existing customers. Highly recommend!

After your appointment
Aftercare
Keep the area clean and protected, avoid picking as the tissue dries and sheds, and follow the clinic’s wound-care advice until healing is complete.
A single appointment for most lesions
The clinic is at 65 London Road, Newark-on-Trent, NG24 1RZ, with free parking at the front.
Suitable lesions are usually treated in one session, with a review if the lesion needs a second. There is no course, so this is one trip and a short one.
We see patients from Balderton, Farndon, Collingham, Southwell, Bingham and Ollerton, and from Lincoln, Grantham and Sleaford. Several lesions can often be dealt with in the same appointment, which is worth mentioning when you book so enough time is set aside.
The treated area scabs and lifts over the following days. Keep it dry, leave it alone, and let it come away on its own.
Further reading: cryotherapy for benign skin lesions covers which lesions respond and which are better removed another way. What lesion removal costs sets out every price, what it includes and how to compare quotes.
We also have pages for patients who live near Grantham and Lincoln.
