Cryotherapy Montreal
Cryotherapy is a non-invasive treatment offered at our Dermapure clinics in Montreal that uses controlled freezing to target and remove certain superficial skin lesions. By applying liquid nitrogen or a cryoprobe precisely to the area, it destroys the targeted cells while limiting impact on the surrounding skin and supporting natural healing.
Cryotherapy is most often considered by patients who would like to treat superficial concerns such as sun spots (solar lentigines) and certain benign moles or skin irregularities. Because some lesions need to be evaluated before treatment, a physician will first confirm that cryotherapy is appropriate for your concern. It is quick, well tolerated and involves minimal downtime.
Because every patient’s skin and concern are different, cryotherapy at our Dermapure clinics in Montreal 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 a realistic treatment plan, the expected results and the possible side effects.
