Cryotherapy

Cryotherapy is a minimally invasive medical procedure that uses extremely cold temperatures (-196°C to -160°C) to destroy abnormal or diseased tissue. This advanced technique is widely used in:
Dermatology (skin lesions)
Oncology (tumor treatment)
Urology (prostate therapy)
Gynecology (cervical dysplasia)

How Does Cryotherapy Work?

  1. Freezing Agents: Liquid nitrogen or argon gas is applied via probe/spray

  2. Cell Destruction: Ice crystals rupture abnormal cells

  3. Tissue Elimination: Targeted area sloughs off naturally

  4. Healing: Healthy tissue regenerates

Common Applications

 Dermatology

  • Wart & skin tag removal

  • Actinic keratosis treatment

  • Precancerous lesion elimination

 Oncology & Specialized Care

  • Prostate cancer therapy

  • Cervical dysplasia treatment

  • Localized tumor control

Key Benefits

 Precision targeting (spares healthy tissue)
Quick outpatient procedure (10-30 minutes)
Minimal scarring & downtime
High success rates for benign/malignant conditions

Treatment Process

  1. Consultation: Evaluation of treatment area

  2. Application: Controlled freezing (1-3 cycles)

  3. Recovery: Mild redness/swelling (resolves in days)

  4. Results: Visible within 1-2 weeks

Recovery & Aftercare

  • Avoid picking scabs (natural shedding)

  • Apply antibiotic ointment if needed

  • Protect area from sun exposure

  • Full healing within 2-4 weeks

Potential Side Effects

⚠️ Temporary pain/swelling
⚠️ Blistering (rare)
⚠️ Hypopigmentation (lightened skin)
