Cryotherapy Longueuil

Cryotherapy offered at our Dermapure clinics in Longueuil uses controlled cold, applied with liquid nitrogen or a cryoprobe, to target and remove certain superficial skin lesions. The intense cold destroys the targeted cells while preserving the surrounding skin.

This treatment is most often considered by patients who would like to treat sun spots (lentigines), certain benign moles or superficial skin irregularities. A physician confirms that the lesion is appropriate for this approach beforehand. Treatment is quick and generally involves little downtime.

Because every patient’s skin and concern are different, cryotherapy at our Dermapure clinics in Longueuil always begins with a personalized medical consultation with a physician or healthcare professional. Together, you will assess whether cryotherapy is the most appropriate option for you and discuss what a realistic treatment plan could look like, the expected results and the possible side effects. Book your personalized consultation with our team in Longueuil.

What to Expect During Your Session

Step 1
Personalized Assessment
During your consultation, our experts will evaluate your skin concerns to determine if cryotherapy is the right treatment for you.
Step 2
Take Pictures
Photographs will be taken before the procedure to document the starting condition and track your progress over time.
Step 3
Proceed with Treatment
Cryotherapy involves applying liquid nitrogen or a controlled freezing device to the affected area. The treatment takes only a few seconds per lesion, with a slight tingling or stinging sensation.
Step 4
Return to Normal Activities
Mild redness, swelling, or darkening of the treated area is common and typically resolves within one to two weeks as the skin heals and regenerates.

Follow-Up & Maintenance

Depending on the depth of the lesion, multiple sessions may be needed to achieve optimal results. Your provider will guide you on the best treatment plan based on your skin’s response.
