Cryotherapy
Treatment with cold: liquid nitrogen is applied to destroy benign or pre-malignant lesions in a controlled way — warts, actinic and seborrhoeic keratoses, among others.
It is quick, carried out during the consultation, and may cause a passing burning sensation and a small blister over the following days — expected signs of the response to the cold.
