How we remove skin tags
Cryotherapy can treat unwanted skin lesions such as Warts, Moles, Skin Tags and Verrucas
It works by safely breaking down the tissue cells by rapidly bringing them down to a low temperature, where they form ice crystals. We use liquid nitrogen to freeze the skin tag as it’s extremely cold temperature can destroy the cells of the tag. The ice crystals break down the structure of the cell, allowing water to fill the surrounding area and create a healable blister.
Healing of the blister will then occur within two to six weeks, depending on the depth of the freeze. This provides an efficient skin tag removal with the least amount of scarring compared to other alternative methods.

Cryotherapy is suitable for all adult individuals who are looking to treat skin lesions such as verrucas, skin tags, moles, warts and many more. This treatment is inadvisable for certain lesions, such as undiagnosed lesions, melanoma or any conditions exacerbated by cold exposure.
For most conditions, this treatment is a permanent removal that will have results available up to 2 weeks following your successful mole removal.
Some lesions are harder to remove than others, and in delicate areas a shorter freeze time with repeat procedures may be required to achieve a final result. This is to ensure the least damage to surrounding skin.
