Cryosurgery

Gynaecology Cryosurgery Croydon

Cryosurgery is a method of destroying abnormal tissue by freezing it in low temperature with the help of oxide. The temperature drop has the effect of crystallising the fluid contents of the targeted cells, turning them into ice shards, resulting in the destruction of skin lesions as the membrane surrounding the treated cells is ruptured and destroyed.
