Cryotherapy is a quick, non-invasive treatment used to remove a variety of benign skin lesions by freezing them at the root. At The Canmore Clinic in Dunfermline, we offer professional cryotherapy treatment as part of our minor skin procedures — carried out safely by Dr Matt Bulkeley, our experienced private GP.
Whether you’re looking to remove warts, skin tags, sunspots (actinic keratoses) or other harmless lesions, cryotherapy offers a fast, effective solution with minimal downtime.
Cryotherapy is suitable for the treatment of several common skin lesions, including:
We always begin with a clinical assessment to confirm whether cryotherapy is the most appropriate treatment for your skin concern.

You’ll find The Canmore Clinic at 30 Canmore Street, Dunfermline, Fife KY12 7NT — easily accessible from surrounding areas including Rosyth, Inverkeithing, and the wider Fife region.
You may feel a short burst of stinging or cold during the procedure, but most patients find it very tolerable. Any discomfort usually subsides quickly after treatment.
Most lesions heal within 1–2 weeks. A small scab or crust may form and fall away naturally. We’ll provide aftercare guidance to ensure smooth healing.
Cryotherapy can treat some types of benign moles, but a full assessment is required first to ensure it’s safe and appropriate. We do not use cryotherapy on suspicious or potentially cancerous moles.
