Pros and Cons of Cryotherapy Skin Tag Removal Method

Cryotherapy is a reliable method when it comes to the removal of skin tags. Majority of the people will prefer this method because it is not intrusive and will be complete in only a few minutes. Most of the skin tags will go away after a few weeks while others will require more sessions. Below are the pros and cons of removing skin tags through the cryotherapy method.
Pros

• Lower risk of getting an infection: Since a cryotherapy skin tag removal method is not intrusive, there will be less risk of getting an infection after the treatment.
• Little preparation required: It will be possible to book an appointment on a short notice as the process is not complicated and will only take a few minutes.
• There will be no wound that will require aftercare: The skin tag will simply fall off and no wound will be left in its place.
• It is cheaper compared to other skin tag removal methods: The amount that one will pay for the skin tag removal is less compared to the amount that one will pay for other skin tag removal methods like the laser method.

Cons

• Possibility of bleeding
• Headache
•  Hypopigmentation: There may a be change in skin color on the treated skin making the spot appear lighter.
•  Formation of blisters: After the skin tag falls off, a blister will form on that spot but it will only last a few days.
• More than one session may be required: Removal of a skin tag through the cryotherapy method may not be successful after one session and repeat sessions have to be arranged. This may make the entire process more expensive as you have to pay for every session.

To reduce the occurrence of some of these side effects, you should ensure that the procedure is carried out in a professional spa where the right procedure and the best materials will be used in the removal process. You should never attempt to carry out the cryotherapy procedure at home as the side effects may be more severe.
