Cryotherapy

Cryotherapy is a treatment that uses extreme cold to freeze and destroy abnormal tissue, such as warts. It’s a quick procedure performed in our office, making it a convenient option for patients.

Some patients may feel a brief stinging or burning sensation during the freezing process, but this is generally mild and short-lived. We often use local anesthetics to minimize discomfort.

The cryotherapy procedure is quick, usually taking less than a minute for each wart. Most patients can return to their normal activities immediately afterward.

Most patients require multiple treatments to ensure complete removal of the wart. Your foot care expert will assess your progress and determine the best course of action for you.

After treatment, the wart may blister or darken as it begins to fall off. It’s important to keep the area clean and follow any aftercare instructions provided by our team.

Cryotherapy is generally safe, with minimal side effects. Some patients may experience slight redness or swelling in the treated area, but these usually resolve quickly.

Cryotherapy is effective in about two-thirds of cases. When combined with other treatments, like salicylic acid, the success rate can be as high as 70 percent.

While many warts can be successfully removed, there is a chance they may return. Our team will provide you with tips on prevention and care to help reduce the risk of recurrence.
