Every lesion is checked first to make sure it’s a wart and suitable for the CryoPen.
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 Port Talbot 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 one of the most common things we treat. They’re warts on the sole of the foot and respond to CryoPen freezing in the same way.
We freeze warts and verrucae with the CryoPen, which delivers a fine, high-pressure jet of nitrous oxide directly onto the lesion. It takes only seconds.
The surrounding skin is left alone because the jet is so precise. There’s no cutting, no stitches and no anaesthetic. A little itching for about 10 minutes afterwards is normal.
Warts and verrucae usually drop off within 1 to 4 weeks. One treatment is often enough, but larger ones may need two. If it’s still there after 4 weeks, we’ll freeze it again. Warts are viral, so occasionally a new one appears.
Side effects are usually small and short-lived. A blister may appear where the wart was frozen, although this is unusual with the CryoPen’s precise jet, and it heals on its own.
As the skin recovers, it can look a little paler or darker than the skin around it, which normally fades over a few months. In rare cases, treating areas like the fingers, where nerves lie near the surface, can leave temporary tingling or numbness, and freezing over coarse hair can damage the follicles. We’ll go through these with you first.
Your free consultation confirms that the lesion is a wart or verruca and that freezing is suitable. We also go through your medical history.
You’ll know the cost before any treatment. If we’re unsure what a lesion is, we’ll recommend a check with 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.
