Warts and verrucae are small, rough growths on the skin caused by a virus. They are common and usually harmless, but many people want them gone because of how they look or because they catch and get in the way. If you live in Laugharne and want one removed, we freeze warts and verrucae with the CryoPen at our clinic in Llanelli.
Cowell St Skin & Hair Clinic is in the centre of Llanelli. We are a doctor-led clinic registered with Healthcare Inspectorate Wales, and we have been treating clients since 2016.
Every client starts with a free consultation. There’s no pressure and no sales pitch, just an honest view of what treatment can and can’t do for you.
Yes. Verrucae are warts on the soles of the feet, and we treat them with the CryoPen in exactly the same way.
We use the CryoPen to freeze warts and verrucae with a precise jet of nitrous oxide. Each one takes just seconds.
The jet targets only the wart, leaving healthy skin unaffected. There’s no cutting, stitching or anaesthetic. Some itching for around 10 minutes afterwards is normal and settles on its own.
Warts and verrucae typically fall off within 1 to 4 weeks. Many need only one treatment, but larger ones often need a second. If it’s still there after 4 weeks, a further freeze is needed. As they’re viral, new warts can sometimes appear.
Side effects are generally mild. A small blister can form but is uncommon with the CryoPen, since the healthy skin isn’t frozen, and it will go down on its own.
The area may heal a shade lighter or darker than the skin around it; this usually fades over a few months. Very occasionally, freezing near surface nerves, such as on the fingers, causes temporary tingling or numbness, and coarse hair in the area may be affected. We’ll talk this through at your consultation.
Your free consultation confirms that the lesion is a wart or verruca and that freezing is appropriate. We’ll also go through your medical history.
You’ll know the price before treatment begins. If we can’t be sure what a lesion is, we’ll recommend a GP check first.
To secure your appointment we take a £30 deposit. It comes off the price of your treatment, or we refund it in full if you decide not to go ahead. Please read our cancellation policy before you book.

Laugharne, on the Taf estuary, is a little further away, but wart treatment takes only seconds and there’s no downtime, so one trip is often all you need.
Our clinic is at 10 Cowell Street in the centre of Llanelli, about 30 miles south-east of Laugharne. Drive up to St Clears, take the A40 to Carmarthen, then either the A484 through Kidwelly or the A48 to Pont Abraham and on into Llanelli. There is parking in the town centre.
The clinic is also within reach of Pendine, St Clears and Llanddowror. Appointments are short, so a visit is easy to combine with a trip into Llanelli.

Yes. A verruca is a wart on the sole of the foot, and we freeze verrucae with the CryoPen in the same way.
Preparation helps. Use Salactol or zinc oxide tape for a month beforehand, and the night before, soak the wart for 20 minutes and file away the hard skin gently.
Most clients feel a brief cold sting for a few seconds, then some itching for around 10 minutes.
Most warts need one treatment, while larger ones and verrucae may need two.
It typically drops off within 1 to 4 weeks as the skin heals.
Leave it alone and don’t pop it; it will go down by itself. If it does burst, apply antiseptic cream twice a day and cover it with a plaster.
Sometimes. Because the cause is viral, a treated wart can occasionally come back, or a new one can form somewhere else.
None. You can travel home and carry on as normal.
