Before treating, we make sure the lesion is a wart or verruca and safe to freeze.
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 St Clears 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.
We treat warts and verrucae with the CryoPen, freezing them with a fine jet of nitrous oxide in a few seconds.
Because the jet is so precise, only the wart is treated. There’s no cutting, stitching or anaesthetic. Mild itching for around 10 minutes afterwards is normal.
Treated warts and verrucae usually fall off within 1 to 4 weeks. Many need only one treatment, but larger ones may need two. If it’s still there after 4 weeks, a second freeze is needed. As warts are viral, new ones can occasionally appear.
The CryoPen is a low-risk treatment. Now and then a blister develops over the treated spot; it’s not common, as only the wart is frozen, and it settles by itself.
Afterwards, the skin may look slightly lighter or darker for a few months, occasionally longer. Rarely, there may be temporary numbness or tingling where nerves are close to the skin, such as the fingers, and freezing over coarse hair can damage the follicles. You’ll know all of this before any treatment.
Your free consultation confirms that it’s a wart or verruca, checks that freezing is suitable and covers your medical history.
You’ll know the cost before we start. If we aren’t 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.

St Clears sits on the A40 in west Carmarthenshire, and because wart treatment takes only seconds with no downtime, the trip to Llanelli is quick and worthwhile.
Our clinic is at 10 Cowell Street in the centre of Llanelli, about 27 miles south-east of 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 Whitland, Laugharne, Pendine and Meidrim. 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.
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.
Most people feel a cold sting for a few seconds, then mild itching for around 10 minutes.
Often just one, though larger warts and verrucae may need a second freeze if they’re still present after 4 weeks.
Most fall off within one to four weeks.
Avoid popping it and it will go down on its own. If it bursts, clean it with antiseptic cream twice a day and keep a plaster on it.
It can happen. The virus behind warts means a new one can occasionally appear, or the original can return.
None. You can drive home and continue your day as normal.
