Skin Tag Removal In Leeds

Cryotherapy & Electrosurgery For Skin Lumps & Bumps

Simple Solutions for Stubborn Skin Problems – The Sozo Way

There are some skin problems that aren’t serious – but they still bother you. Maybe it’s a raised bump that catches on your shirt, a red mark you’ve had for years, a cluster of tiny blood vessels that never went away or a skin tag that makes you self-conscious in summer clothes.

These things are common. But they’re also treatable – often in one visit. At Sozo Clinic, we offer safe, highly targeted procedures like Cryotherapy and Electrosurgery to remove or reduce unwanted skin lesions without invasive surgery or long recovery times. It’s fast, effective, and done under local or regional anaesthetic – with comfort and care at the centre of everything we do.

What Is Cryotherapy?

Cryotherapy is a precise freezing treatment that uses liquid nitrogen or medical-grade cold gas to destroy unwanted skin cells.

It works by freezing the water inside cells, causing them to rupture and die – while leaving the healthy surrounding tissue intact.

It’s quick. It’s safe. And it’s particularly useful for:

  • Superficial skin growths
  • Benign lesions
  • Pre-cancerous spots like actinic keratoses

What Is Electrosurgery?

Electrosurgery (also called electrodesiccation or thermocoagulation) uses a fine, heated probe to target and destroy tissue with pinpoint accuracy.

It delivers a tiny electrical current to the lesion – either removing it entirely or cutting off its blood supply so it naturally shrinks and disappears.

It’s incredibly effective for:

  • Vascular lesions (like spider naevi or thread veins)
  • Warts
  • Skin tags
  • Certain small moles
  • Seborrhoeic keratoses
  • Milia and other surface bumps

Both treatments are offered in our clinic, with no need for general anaesthetic or hospital admission.

What Can Cryotherapy & Electrosurgery Treat?

Skin Tags

Soft, fleshy growths often found on the neck, underarms, breasts or groin. Erbium can remove these in one session

Warts & Verrucae

Seborrhoeic Keratoses

Warty, stuck-on lesions common with age. Removed with our erbium laser

Milia

Small white cysts under the skin — electrosurgery can remove these precisely without damaging surrounding tissue.

Spider Naevi

Tiny vascular marks that respond beautifully to precise laser

Thread Veins

Thin purple vascular marks that respond beautifully to thermocoagulation.

Xanthelasma

Erbium Laser technology to treat Xanthelasma, yellowish cholesterol deposits around the eyelids. This precise treatment targets the affected area to help restore a smoother, clearer appearance.

Actinic (Solar) Keratoses

Rough, scaly patches caused by sun damage — these are precancerous and should be treated. Cryotherapy is a safe and effective option.

Cherry Angiomas / Campbell de Morgan Spots

Bright red dome-shaped vascular lesions. Gone in seconds with electrosurgery.

What’s the Treatment Like?

At Sozo Clinic, your experience matters just as much as your results. Here’s how we do things – the Sozo Way:

  • You’re fully assessed first – We make sure the lesion is safe to treat – and that it’s benign. If there’s any doubt, we’ll advise a biopsy or referral first.

  • We numb the area – Local or regional anaesthetic ensures you won’t feel a thing. No pain. No stress.

  • Treatment takes minutes – Whether we freeze it or gently cauterise it, most lesions are treated in under 10–15 minutes.

  • You go home the same day – With aftercare instructions and full support if you have any concerns.

What’s the Recovery after the Procedure Like?

Healing is usually quick and straightforward:

  • You may get a scab or crust over the treated area
  • Some redness or swelling is normal for a few days
  • Moisturiser or Vaseline may be recommended to support healing

  • Any scarring is typically minimal – and we take great care with aesthetics

Most people are back to normal activities the same day.

You don’t have to put up with annoying, uncomfortable or unsightly skin lesions.
