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 Mumbles 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. Because a verruca is a type of wart, the CryoPen treats it in the same quick, precise way.
Our clinic uses the CryoPen, which freezes the wart with an extremely precise jet of nitrous oxide. Each wart takes only a few seconds.
Because the jet is so targeted, only the wart is frozen and the healthy skin around it isn’t affected. No cutting, stitches or anaesthetic are needed. Mild itching for about 10 minutes afterwards is normal.
Warts and verrucae usually fall off within 1 to 4 weeks of treatment. Many need only one session, though larger ones often need two. If it’s still present after 4 weeks, a second freeze is needed. Occasionally a new wart can appear, as they are viral.
Most people have no problems beyond a little redness. A blister can sometimes form, but because the CryoPen freezes only the wart, this is uncommon and it resolves naturally.
Treated skin can heal with a lighter or darker patch that usually fades over several months. Occasionally, freezing over nerves near the surface, for example on a finger, leads to temporary numbness, and hair follicles in coarse-haired areas can be affected. We discuss every possible effect before we start.
Your free consultation lets us confirm that the lesion is a wart or verruca, check that freezing is the right treatment and review your medical history.
You’ll know what it costs before we start. If we aren’t sure what a lesion is, we’ll recommend seeing your GP 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.

Mumbles is a place for bare feet on the beach and swims in the bay, which is exactly why a stubborn verruca can be so frustrating.
Our clinic is at 10 Cowell Street in the centre of Llanelli, about 15 miles north-west of Mumbles. Most Mumbles clients drive through Sketty or Killay to Gowerton and over the Loughor Bridge. There is parking in the town centre.
The clinic is also within reach of West Cross, Newton, Langland, Caswell and Bishopston. Appointments are short, so a visit is easy to combine with a trip into Llanelli.

Wart removal starts from £50. The price depends on the number of warts, and we confirm it at your free consultation, before any treatment.
Yes. A verruca is a wart on the sole of the foot, and we freeze verrucae with the CryoPen in the same way.
You do. Use Salactol or zinc oxide tape on the wart for one month before treatment, then the night before, soak the area for 20 minutes in warm water and remove hard skin with a pumice stone or file.
Expect a quick cold sting for a few seconds. Some itching for around 10 minutes afterwards is a normal reaction.
One is often enough. Bigger warts and verrucae can need two, and we re-freeze any still there after 4 weeks.
Expect it to come away within 1 to 4 weeks.
Leave the blister intact and it will settle by itself. Should it burst, use antiseptic cream twice a day and protect it with a plaster.
Now and then. Warts come from a virus, so a fresh wart may sometimes develop after the first has cleared.
No downtime at all. You can carry on with your day straight away.
