What is cryotherapy treatment?

Cryotherapy (also known as cryosurgery or cryoablation) uses freezing temperatures to destroy cancerous cells or abnormal skin lesions/growths. The Devonshire Clinic uses cryotherapy treatments to eliminate a range of skin lesions, including actinic keratoses (precancerous lesions associated with sun-damaged skin), viral warts, seborrhoeic keratosis (waxy or scaly lumpy growths on the face, neck, chest or back) and other damage to your skin.
