Cryosurgery

Introduction

Cryosurgery is a minimally invasive treatment we typically use to address non-cancerous skin lesions. With the help of dermatologist, Dr. Faryal Siddiqui, La Jolla Cosmetic Laser Clinic is proud to offer Cryosurgery and other cutting-edge dermatologic treatments to men and women in San Diego, Encinitas, La Mesa, El Cajon, and surrounding areas of California.

What is Cryosurgery?

Cryosurgery is a minimally invasive surgical treatment used to treat a variety of non-cancerous skin lesions. Also referred to as cryotherapy, this treatment uses a very cold substance like liquid nitrogen to freeze away unhealthy skin lesions while keeping the remaining tissues around the lesion healthy and untouched. Dr. Siddiqui may recommend patients receive cryotherapy treatments to address concerns like warts and molluscum, skin tags, or dark spots on the skin.

What are the Benefits of Cryosurgery?

There are many benefits of receiving Cryotherapy with the expert medical team at La Jolla Cosmetic Laser Clinic, including:

Minimally invasive treatment
Does not require cutting or general anesthesia
Minimal downtime and recovery period
High success rate in a few treatment sessions

If you believe Cryosurgery may be a good treatment option for your unwanted skin lesions, we encourage you to come in for a private consultation with Dr. Siddiqui and her expert medical team. They’ll be happy to evaluate your skin and develop a personalized treatment plan to help you treat your biggest skin concerns.

How is Cryosurgery Performed?

Your Cryosurgery treatments will be performed by Dr. Faryal Siddiqui in our beautiful office. Before your treatment begins, a topical or local anesthetic may be applied to your treatment area. This is to ensure you remain comfortable throughout your treatment session. Once numb, Dr. Siddiqui will apply the cryotherapy using a spray or cotton swab. Treatment sessions are typically short, but the length of your treatment will depend on the size and severity of your skin lesion.

What Can I Expect During Cryosurgery Recovery?

Following your Cryosurgery treatment, it’s normal for the skin to be red, tender, and blistered for several days. This blistering will typically scab over within one week of treatment, and scabs generally heal on their own within three weeks. If you have any questions about your Cryosurgery recovery, we encourage you to contact us at your convenience. One of our medical team members will be happy to assist you over the phone or may recommend coming into the office for further assistance.

“I could not have had a better first impression of La Jolla Cosmetic Laser Clinic. I spoke with three practitioners at my appointment, who were all extremely friendly and professional. I never felt pressured to purchase any product/service. In fact, the doctor suggested I hold off on a service I was interested in to see if it was even necessary. I am genuinely looking forward to my next appointment”

“This was my first time here and my first time getting Botox and let me tell you Dr. Mani and her team is amazing. Coming into it I was extremely nervous bc I’ve never gotten any non surgical procedures done before so I didn’t know what to expect. But when Dr Mani and her team came in I got extremely calm and ready and let me tell you she is amazing and super quick! Didn’t feel a pinch!”
