Warts, skin tags, seborrhoeic keratoses and other benign lesions only when clinically appropriate.
Not every lesion is suitable, and undiagnosed or suspicious lesions need the right clinical pathway.
The cold application is directed at the lesion selected for treatment after examination.
You receive practical advice about recovery and when to contact the team.
