Cryotherapy
Cryotherapy is a non-surgical method used for treating many skin conditions including benign skin growths or viral warts. It is performed with liquid nitrogen achieving extremely low temperatures – up to minus 196 ° C. Depending on the thickness and type of skin change liquid nitrogen is applied directly through a special spray or swab for a few or maximum 60 seconds. In order to achieve a beneficial effect cryotherapy should be repeated every 7 to 14 days. After the treatment on the site where liquid nitrogen was applied a blister can be formed which will eventually result in epithelization.
