Cryotherapy (Freezing Warts, Sunspots & Skin Tags)

Cryotherapy at Emerald Medical Centre

Cryotherapy uses liquid nitrogen to freeze and treat common skin concerns, including warts, sun-damaged spots and skin tags. It’s a quick treatment done by your GP here at the clinic, as part of a standard GP appointment.

Freezing can cause some temporary stinging or discomfort, and some spots need more than one treatment for the best result.

To book, call (03) 5968 4622 and let our reception team know you’d like a spot checked or frozen.
