Cryotherapy Marylebone

Cryotherapy Marylebone

At Derma Lab Clinic we specialise in advanced cryotherapy treatments designed to safely and effectively remove skin lesions while preserving the surrounding healthy tissue. Our doctor-led approach ensures that every procedure is performed with precision, helping our patients achieve clear, healthy skin with minimal discomfort and fast recovery times.

What is Cryotherapy?

Cryotherapy is a minimally-invasive treatment that uses extreme cold to freeze and remove unwanted skin lesions. By applying a controlled cryogen to the surface of the lesion, we can treat common concerns such as skin tags, warts, cherry angiomas, milia, seborrhoeic keratoses, and pigmented spots without the need for surgery.

The process targets the lesion specifically, helping to minimise scarring, redness, and damage to the treated area. Cryotherapy offers amazing results for those looking for a quick, safe solution to a variety of cosmetic and dermatological issues.

How Cryotherapy is Performed

Before your first session, a detailed lesion assessment is performed by our dermatologist using dermoscopic imaging. This helps us determine if cryotherapy is appropriate or if additional treatments may be needed.

The procedure itself is quick and typically completed within half an hour depending on size and number of lesions to be treated.

The cold application causes the lesion to freeze, form a scab, and eventually fall off naturally. Patients may feel a mild tingling or discomfort, but this usually resolves quickly after the session.

At Derma Lab Clinic, your health, wellbeing, and comfort are our priorities. Each cryotherapy treatment is administered by our medical professionals to ensure the best possible results.

What to Expect After Treatment

Following your cryotherapy session some redness, mild swelling, or a blister may occur at the treated area. These effects are normal and usually subside within a few hours to a couple of days. A scab may form within a few days and typically falls off within 7-14 days. Treated areas may appear lighter or darker temporarily as the skin heals. 

Avoid picking or scratching to reduce the risk of scarring or infection. 

You will be provided with detailed aftercare advice to support healing and prevent infection. You may be advised to avoid sun exposure, strenuous exercise, and to keep the area clean and dry for optimal results.

Some lesions may require more than one session depending on their size, depth, and location. Our dermatologist will guide you through what to expect during your initial consultation.
