Cryotherapy is a fast and effective solution for removing benign skin lesions such as warts, skin tags, and pigmentation. Using controlled bursts of extreme cold, the affected tissue is destroyed without the need for incisions or stitches.
This minimally invasive treatment is quick, with minimal discomfort and little to no downtime. At The Esteem Clinic, all cryotherapy procedures are carried out by trained professionals who ensure safety, hygiene, and optimal aesthetic results.
What is cryotherapy?
Cryotherapy is a safe, effective treatment that uses extremely cold temperatures to target and remove unwanted skin lesions such as warts, skin tags, age spots, and other benign imperfections. At The Esteem Clinic, we use precise, medical-grade equipment to freeze the affected tissue, encouraging healthy new skin to form.
How does cryotherapy work?
A controlled jet of cold gas is applied directly to the lesion, freezing it within seconds. This process destroys the unwanted tissue without damaging the surrounding skin, making it an excellent choice for small or delicate areas.
Is cryotherapy safe?
Yes — when performed by trained professionals, cryotherapy is very safe. At The Esteem Clinic, we carefully assess each lesion beforehand to ensure it’s suitable for treatment and follow strict safety protocols throughout the procedure.
Does cryotherapy hurt?
Most clients experience only mild discomfort, such as a brief stinging or tingling sensation as the cold is applied. The treatment is usually quick, and any sensitivity fades soon after.
What can cryotherapy treat?
Cryotherapy is ideal for removing common warts, verrucas, skin tags, sunspots, and other benign blemishes. It’s a versatile treatment for improving skin clarity and texture on the face, hands, body, and feet.
Is there any downtime after cryotherapy?
Downtime is minimal. The treated area may appear red or form a small blister or scab, which usually heals naturally within a week or two. We provide simple aftercare instructions to support smooth healing.
How many sessions will I need?
Many minor lesions resolve after a single session, while others may require two or more treatments depending on their size and depth. Your practitioner will discuss the likely outcome during your consultation.
Who is a good candidate for cryotherapy?
Cryotherapy is suitable for most adults seeking safe, fast removal of benign skin lesions. A thorough assessment at The Esteem Clinic ensures the procedure is appropriate for your skin and concerns.
