Cryotherapy with Liquid Nitrogen
Cryotherapy or “freezing” with liquid nitrogen effectively treats several skin conditions, including Actinic Keratoses, commonly known as “pre-skin cancers”.

Photodynamic therapy uses light to activate an immune response in the skin. It is an effective treatment for people with multiple solar keratoses or skin cancers where surgery is not appropriate and a good cosmetic outcome is required.
