Cryosurgery of skin lesions

Removal of warts Zakopane – Medical Clinic Podhale Art. We cordially invite you!

Cryosurgery, also performed by specialists from the Medical Clinic Podhale Art in Zakopane, is an alternative to the classic surgical procedure. It is the removal of skin lesions, mainly warts and warts, using a device with liquid nitrogen at a temperature of minus 195 degrees Celsius. It involves local, controlled destruction of diseased tissue by freezing it. Specifically, liquid nitrogen is applied to the skin surface, using the so-called. cryoapplicators:

  • spray, in the case of treatment of superficial lesions,
  • when we are dealing with the necessity of deep freezing in order to destroy the lesion.

Strictly speaking, the low temperature leads to completely safe removal of the lesion from the place subjected to freezing. In addition, the therapy is almost painless and does not require anesthesia (unless the patient wishes). There may be a feeling of coolness, slight itching or burning during the procedure.

Indications

The indications for cryosurgery include the presence of benign skin lesions, such as:

  • fibromas,
  • seborrheic warts,
  • flat warts,
  • viral warts on the feet,
  • warts (common warts),
  • actinic keratosis,
  • vascular changes (so-called angiomas or dilated capillaries),
  • birthmarks.
Contraindications

Cryosurgery should not be performed if the Patient has, for example:

  • cold hives,
  • blushing from the cold,
  • cold cellulitis,
  • Raynaud’s disease and phenomenon
  • cold agglutinin diseases,
  • cryoglobulinemia and/or cryofibrinemia,
  • multiple myeloma.
After treatment

Reddening of the skin may occur at the site of the frozen lesion, and then a delicate swelling and itching of the skin, which, however, pass quite quickly. A small scab may then form. If the symptoms are troublesome for the patient, the doctor may prescribe a steroid ointment for topical application. The healing period after cryosurgery is usually up to 14 days.

Depending on the type of disease, the extent and depth of a specific lesion, the procedure is performed once or in a series, more importantly – in accordance with the doctor’s orders.
