At New Smyrna Wellness Center we commonly use a technique called cryotherapy or freezing to remove unwanted or suspicious moles. Cryotherapy involves applying liquid nitrogen or another freezing agent directly to the mole. The extreme cold temperature destroys the cells within the mole, causing it to freeze and eventually fall off.

This procedure is safe, effective, and typically leaves minimal scarring. Freezing of moles is often performed for cosmetic reasons or when a mole exhibits concerning characteristics that require further examination through a skin biopsy.
