Cryotherapy in Manchester at Heald Green Pharmacy
At Heald Green Pharmacy, we provide professional Cryotherapy in Manchester to help patients safely and effectively treat a range of common skin concerns. From skin tag removal and wart removal to mole removal and treating stubborn verrucas, Cryotherapy is a modern treatment that freezes away unwanted growths. Many people try home remedies or over-the-counter products without success, but our service offers a safe, reliable, and clinically supervised solution.
What is Cryotherapy?
Cryotherapy is a treatment that uses extreme cold, often in the form of liquid nitrogen, to target and destroy abnormal or unwanted tissue. By freezing the cells, Cryotherapy causes them to break down and naturally shed from the body, allowing healthy skin to replace the affected area.
It is a quick procedure that usually takes only a few minutes, and in many cases, no anaesthetic is required. Cryotherapy has been used for many years in clinical settings and is a trusted treatment for skin tag removal, wart removal, mole removal, and other minor skin conditions.
What Can Cryotherapy Treat?
Cryotherapy is a versatile treatment and can be used for a range of skin concerns, including:
-
Skin tags
-
Warts
-
Verrucas
-
Moles
-
Sunspots or age spots
-
Certain other small, benign skin growths
Each of these conditions may seem harmless, but they can be irritating, unsightly, or sometimes even uncomfortable. Having them treated professionally ensures they are dealt with effectively and safely.
Skin Tag Removal
Skin tags are small, soft growths of skin that often appear in areas where the skin rubs against clothing or where there is friction, such as the neck, armpits, or groin. They are harmless but can be bothersome or catch on clothing and jewellery. Cryotherapy offers a fast and effective method for skin tag removal, leaving the area smooth and clear.

Wart Removal
Warts are caused by the human papillomavirus (HPV) and can appear anywhere on the body. They are often rough, raised, and can spread if left untreated. Over-the-counter remedies can take weeks or months to work, if they work at all. Cryotherapy targets the wart directly, freezing it at its root for quick and effective wart removal.
Mole Removal
Moles are usually harmless but can sometimes be a cosmetic concern. Cryotherapy can be used for mole removal if the mole is benign and suitable for treatment. At Heald Green Pharmacy, we always check moles before treatment to make sure they are safe to remove. If we have any concerns, we will advise you to see your GP or a dermatologist.
Verruca Treatment
Verrucas are a type of wart that appear on the soles of the feet. They can be painful to walk on and are often difficult to treat with over-the-counter remedies. Cryotherapy works by freezing the verruca tissue, encouraging the body to shed the damaged cells so healthy skin can form underneath.
The Benefits of Cryotherapy
Many people try to treat skin tags, warts, or verrucas at home using shop-bought products or internet remedies. These can be messy, time-consuming, and often ineffective. In some cases, they can even cause irritation or damage to the surrounding skin.
Cryotherapy, on the other hand, is:
Quick: Most treatments take just a few minutes.
Effective: Targets the problem directly for faster results.
Precise: Freezes only the unwanted tissue while leaving surrounding skin unharmed.
Safe: Carried out in a clinical setting by trained professionals.
Convenient: Often requires fewer sessions than at-home methods.
Choosing Cryotherapy in Greater Manchester with Heald Green Pharmacy means you can have peace of mind knowing you are in safe hands.

What to Expect During a Cryotherapy Appointment
When you book Cryotherapy at Heald Green Pharmacy, your appointment will typically involve:
1. Consultation: We discuss your concern and check the area to ensure it is suitable for treatment.
2. Treatment: A small applicator is used to apply liquid nitrogen directly to the skin tag, wart, mole, or verruca. The cold may sting or tingle briefly, but this usually settles quickly.
3. Aftercare: We provide advice on how to care for the treated area. It may blister or scab before healing, which is a normal part of the process.
Most treatments take only a few minutes, and you can usually continue with your normal activities immediately afterwards.
Aftercare and Healing
After Cryotherapy, the treated area may appear red or form a small blister. This is part of the body’s natural healing process. The area will gradually scab and then heal, leaving behind healthy skin. We will give you clear aftercare instructions to help reduce any risk of infection and to support healing.
In some cases, more than one session may be needed, particularly for larger or more stubborn warts and verrucas. We will discuss this with you during your consultation.
