What to expect
Our cryotherapy service follows a straightforward three-step process to ensure your comfort and the best possible outcome. From your initial consultation through to aftercare, we guide you every step of the way.
Before your visit
Contact Kenmakos Medical in Bletchley to book your appointment and discuss your skin concern with our team. Avoid applying lotions or makeup to the area for at least 24 hours before treatment and wear clean, loose clothing.
On the day
Our qualified pharmacist will examine the lesion and explain the cryotherapy process, including what to expect during and after treatment. The cryostatic application is quick and causes only mild discomfort; we use a precise freezing technique to destroy the tissue safely.

In detail
Cryotherapy Treatment at Kenmakos Medical
We offer professional cryotherapy treatment at our Bletchley clinic using advanced cryostatics technology. This effective treatment can help remove unwanted skin lesions, warts, and other benign growths quickly and safely.
01What conditions can cryotherapy treat?
Cryotherapy uses extreme cold to remove common skin conditions including warts, verrucas, age spots, and benign moles. The treatment works by freezing the affected tissue, which then naturally sheds away over the following weeks. Our team at Kenmakos Medical in Bletchley can assess your skin concern and determine if cryotherapy is the right option for you. This safe, non-invasive approach has been trusted by healthcare professionals across Milton Keynes for many years.
02How does the cryotherapy procedure work?
During your appointment, our trained clinician applies liquid nitrogen or cryostatics directly to the affected area using a specialised applicator. The extreme cold causes the unwanted tissue to freeze and die, which your body then naturally removes. The procedure is quick, typically lasting just a few minutes, and most patients experience minimal discomfort. You may notice mild redness or blistering afterwards, which is a normal part of the healing process.
03What should I expect after treatment?
After cryotherapy, the treated area may appear red or slightly swollen for a few hours. Within days, you may see blistering or darkening of the skin, which is completely normal and indicates the treatment is working. The lesion will typically fall off within one to three weeks depending on the size and type of growth. Our team provides detailed aftercare instructions to ensure proper healing and minimise any risk of infection.
04Is cryotherapy suitable for everyone?
Cryotherapy is suitable for most people, but certain conditions may require alternative treatment. Patients with cold sensitivity, Raynaud's phenomenon, or very dark skin tones may need to discuss options with our clinician first. Pregnant women should postpone treatment until after delivery as a precaution. We recommend booking a consultation at our Bletchley pharmacy so our team can assess your individual needs and answer any concerns.
Common questions
FAQs
If yours is not here, call the clinic and speak to the prescriber directly.

Most cryotherapy treatments take between 5 and 15 minutes depending on the size and number of lesions being treated. You can usually return to your normal activities immediately afterwards, making it a convenient option for busy patients in Milton Keynes.
CryotherapyWill cryotherapy leave a scar?
Cryotherapy rarely leaves visible scars when performed correctly. The treated area typically heals with minimal scarring, though some patients may notice slight skin texture changes. Our experienced clinicians at Kenmakos Medical use precise techniques to minimise any lasting marks.
CryotherapyHow much does cryotherapy cost?
Pricing depends on the number and size of lesions being treated. We recommend contacting our Bletchley clinic for a personalised quote, or booking a consultation so our team can assess your needs and provide accurate pricing.
CryotherapyCan cryotherapy be used on the face?
Yes, cryotherapy can be safely used on facial lesions when performed by a trained professional. We take extra care with facial treatments to ensure excellent cosmetic results and minimal disruption to surrounding skin.
CryotherapyWhat if the lesion returns after treatment?
Some lesions may require a second treatment session for complete removal, particularly if they are large or stubborn. Our clinicians will discuss this possibility during your initial consultation and can arrange follow-up appointments if needed.

Cryotherapy Treatment at Kenmakos Medical
Cryotherapy uses extreme cold to treat a range of skin conditions quickly and effectively. At Kenmakos Medical in Bletchley, we offer professional cryotherapy services using advanced cryostatics technology to remove unwanted lesions, warts, and other benign skin growths.
What is Cryotherapy?
Cryotherapy is a minimally invasive treatment that applies controlled freezing to target specific skin lesions. The extreme cold causes the affected tissue to crystallise and die, allowing your body's natural healing process to remove it safely. This technique is highly effective for treating common skin conditions that may cause discomfort or cosmetic concern.
Our team at Kenmakos Medical uses state-of-the-art cryostatics equipment to ensure precise application and optimal results. The procedure is quick, typically lasting just a few minutes, and requires no general anaesthetic. Most patients experience minimal discomfort during treatment, with only a brief sensation of cold and mild tingling.
Conditions We Treat
Cryotherapy is particularly effective for removing common warts, verrucas, and plantar warts that may be painful or spreading. We also treat seborrhoeic keratosis, solar keratosis, and other benign skin growths that may be unsightly or irritating. Our pharmacists can assess your skin concern and determine whether cryotherapy is the most suitable treatment option.
If you have a skin lesion that you're concerned about, we recommend booking a consultation first. Our experienced team will examine the area, discuss your medical history, and explain what to expect from the treatment. We ensure that all conditions are appropriate for cryotherapy before proceeding with any intervention.
The Treatment Process
During your appointment at our Bletchley clinic, we begin with a thorough assessment of the affected area. We'll discuss your expectations, answer any questions, and prepare you for the procedure. The actual cryotherapy application takes only a few minutes, during which you may feel a sharp cold sensation followed by mild discomfort as the tissue freezes.
After treatment, the area may blister or scab over as your body naturally sheds the frozen tissue. We provide detailed aftercare instructions to promote healing and minimise the risk of infection. Most lesions resolve within two to three weeks, though some may require a follow-up treatment for optimal results.
Aftercare and Recovery
Following cryotherapy, it's important to keep the treated area clean and dry for the first few days. You may notice redness, swelling, or blistering, which is a normal part of the healing process. We recommend avoiding swimming, intense exercise, and tight clothing over the treatment site until it has fully healed.
Most people return to their normal activities immediately after treatment. If you experience any unusual symptoms, excessive pain, or signs of infection, please contact us at Kenmakos Medical in Bletchley straight away. We're here to support you throughout your recovery and ensure the best possible outcome.
