Welcome to VSM Pharmacy, where your skin’s health and clarity are our top priority. We’re excited to offer you an advanced solution for mole removal: cryotherapy. This procedure is a blend of cutting-edge technology and medical expertise designed to provide you with the best care. Below, we’ll educate you about moles and explain how cryotherapy can safely remove them.
What Are Moles?
Moles, also known as nevi, are common skin growths that can appear anywhere on your body. They are usually brown or black in color and can be flat or raised, varying in size and shape. Most moles are harmless and are simply a collection of skin cells called melanocytes, which produce the pigment in your skin. However, it’s important to monitor moles for any changes, as they can sometimes develop into melanoma, a serious form of skin cancer.
Why Choose Cryotherapy for Mole Removal?
Cryotherapy is a non-invasive procedure that involves the application of extreme cold to remove moles. It is a preferred method for many because it usually requires no downtime and has minimal risk of scarring. Here’s why you might consider cryotherapy for mole removal at VSM Pharmacy:
Safe and Effective: Cryotherapy has been proven to be a safe method for removing moles, with high success rates.
Quick Procedure: The treatment is quick, usually taking just a few minutes to complete.
Minimal Discomfort: Patients experience minimal discomfort during the procedure.
No Needles or Cutting: Unlike surgical removal, cryotherapy does not involve needles, cutting, or stitches.
Fast Healing: The healing process is typically fast, with the treated area healing within a couple of weeks.
How Does Cryotherapy Remove Moles?
Cryotherapy works by using liquid nitrogen to freeze the mole, effectively destroying the abnormal skin cells. Here’s the step-by-step process:
Consultation: Before undergoing cryotherapy, you’ll have a consultation with one of our specialists who will examine your mole and determine if cryotherapy is the right treatment for you.
Application: Our specialist will apply liquid nitrogen to the mole using a spray device or a cotton-tipped applicator. You may feel a slight stinging or burning sensation during this process.
Healing: After the procedure, the treated area will develop a blister which will dry up and fall off within a couple of weeks, revealing new, healthy skin underneath.
Aftercare and Recovery
After your cryotherapy session, VSM Pharmacy will provide you with comprehensive aftercare instructions to ensure the best possible results. Recovery typically involves:
Keeping the area clean and dry
Avoiding picking at the scab that forms
Protecting the area from direct sunlight
Monitoring the site for any unusual changes

I attended an appointment for ear wax Microsuction. The service was friendly, professional, punctual and has left me with perfect hearing! Thanks so much!
Wonderful staff, very friendly and handled my Cryotherapy with a lot of care and information, going over everything I needed to know before we proceeded.
Gone to this pharmacy as seen a lot of 5 star reviews and it did not disappoint, Jirina who has seen me for the ear wax removal was amazing, really lovely and very patient, turns out that there wasn't much ear wax in one of my ears, turns out to be a sore ear drum which explains the hearing loss, she explained everything in full detail on how to get it treated and recommended me for one of the ear sprays to calm it down, amazing job, would recommend this place
I had ear wax removed from both ears by micro suction. Would certainly recommend VSM with excellent service and easy online booking system. They show you photos of the inside of the ears both before and after. Having experienced the old system of ear syringing before I can confirm this is a far better process.
Went for ear wax removal. Friendly place.......the staff are chatty. I had to go twice cos there was too much to remove in one go. No extra charge for the second visit which I thought was good! Good availability with appointments too.....(unlike my GP which had no appointments).I wouldn't hesitate to use them again.
Good service. Did have to go back three times in total to clear ears but ear was inflamed so probably why. Friendly staff and like the idea you see the before and after photos using a special camera. Easy to book compared to others and seem to be able to get quick appointments compared to say Specsavers offer. Comparable on price and only pay once until it has been cleared even if you have to return. so that's good.
Really good service. On the spot treatment with clear explanation of what would take place and after care. Forgot to pay and had to go back (bit embarrassing) other than that! Great experience 5*
Such lovely staff and a very helpful environment. Both my daughter who received wart treatment and I were pleasantly overwhelmed by the kind yet professional service.
Excellent service had my ear wax removed and Nicky was so thorough I couldn’t believe how much she managed to remove. I would definitely recommend going to her.
I recently attended this pharmacy for private allergy testing. When I initially called to find out how to book, the online booking process was clearly explained by the person I spoke to, as was the price. I was able to book an appointment with the pharmacist on the same day. I was seen on time, and the pharmacist clearly explained what the test would involve, how I would receive the results, and how long they would likely take to arrive
Just had both ears waxed. Very good service. I was show photos of my ear drum before and afterwards. Very quick and pain free with no mess. With a follow up next year if I want. Throughly recommend the service if you need ear wax remover.
I had cryotherapy on my face this morning. The service was very quick, very professional and at a very good price. These sorts of services used to be available on the NHS so VSM are a great alternative that I wholeheartedly recommend and I will certainly use again
I got an appointment easily online. Pharmacy staff were so kind and helpful and Jirina diagnosed my problem very clearly. Will definitely return if I need help again. Thank you
Got an appointment to meet my needs. Procedure well explained. Could see the situation before the procedure was carried out, and afterwards, to confirm that the problem was removed. Would be happy to use this service again, should the need arise.
I took my father to get his ears sorted and have to say how amazing the pharmacist Jenna was. She was so kind to him and did a great job. Highly recommend.
This pharmacy is outstanding! In an era where customer service is on this decline, this business bucks the trend. Every member of staff is helpful, knowledgeable and goes out of their way to assist their customer. A great team effort!
I’m new to the area so had no clue where to go when I woke up with a blocked ear. After some research I chose this place as it was super easy same day booking for my ear to be suctioned. Great lady who did it who made me feel relaxed. Would recommend to everyone.
Even at the busiest times the staff are friendly, informative and very helpful. I've been using the pharmacy for 20+ years and the standards have never dropped from brilliant! I'm very much in favour of local independent retailers and VSM could be used as a flagship for 'the cause'. RJD
Great service for cryotherapy today. So knowledgeable and explained everything perfectly. Can’t comment on results yet but I am confident they will be amazing 🤩
Excellent service provided, I called in to book an appointment to have my Flu injection, the lady on reception asked me to hold on for a moment and when she returned I was told they could do it there and then. I just had to wait a couple of minutes, then all done. i would recommend anyone to go there its just a shame they are not doing the Covid Jab.
Jrini from VSM Pharmacy was extremely professional & reassuring when explaining how the Cryo Therapy would work regarding the removal of a verruca. I half expected to return within the 4-6 period after the treatment for another session, but it was successful first time & am very satisfied & would highly recommend.
Booked my Flu vacation online and in the day I was dealt with by very friendly staff, the pharmacist was very bubbly and professional as she always is.
I scheduled a Covid test at this pharmacy. The appointment was on time and the staff were polite and happy. A very well run pharmacy who caters to the customer.
Went for my ear cleaning service and was extremely pleased with the service and results. Very easy, pain free, and a pleasure to have this done, for a very reasonable price. Would highly recommend.
I had ear wax removal carried out by VSM Pharmacy. It was a very quick and painless operation which I recommend to anybody who requires such an operation. Thank you Jirina.
This was the best experience I have had for removing earwax. Jirina uses Micro suction, it is far superior to other methods I have used. Apart from the superb method used VSM Pharmacy are wonderful and personal, Jirina is especially knowledgable in so many area’s which makes VSM Pharmacy our No 1 shop on the high street
Very impressed by the service offered by VSM. Today I had ear wax removal from both ears which has made a huge difference to my hearing and balance. I thoroughly recommend this procedure to everyone.
I was in store yesterday and the pharmacist was amazing I think hear name is Jirina so helpful and knowledgeable and her amazing staff best pharmacy around
Very pleased to have changed our pharmacy contact to VSM. So far perscriptions have been quick and efficient. Had my flu jab there and again very quick and efficient. Pleased to support this local pharmacy and will continue to do so from now on.
I couldn't speak more highly of VSM Pharmacy. No matter what your needs are they are met by Jirina and her team. They were there throughout Covid giving advice, not giving a thought for their own safety, they truly are wonderful. Have to say Jirina gives a great vaccine, never have any problems after my flu jabs.
A Pharmarcy that very obviously cares about their clients. Any time I have visited I have been greeted in a friendly, efficient and professional manner. On the rare occasion something is out of stock they have managed to find an alternative or get the exact requirements fairly quickly. The team has a great delivery service using mainly local volunteers who not only deliver medicines but pause for a brief chat when possible.
All staff at this pharmacy are fantastic, very friendly and always make you feel welcome. Always happy to help, we always feel comfortable to ask for any advice as nothing is ever too much trouble for them, thank you vsm team for such great service!
It is the most amazing pharmacy. They always have lovely smiling faces and so very obliging for all the customers. I would NOT go anywhere else unless the Pharmacy was shut. To have a smiley face when you feel rough and a good laugh is all very uplifting. Thank you so much. Xxxx
Jirina and her staff are very friendly, helpful and always smiling. I’ve used their services throughout the pandemic (pick up GP meds, LFD and immunisations) and I’m always confident the moment I open the door that I will get the help/service that I need! 100% recommended!
At VSM, the staff were very helpful and friendly. The pharmacist was good at explaining everything and jab was quick and painless. And no waiting. In and out in 10 minutes.
We required 2 PCR tests for our outward journey and 2 Lateral Flow Tests for our return journey. Being a bit of a technophobe I was hesitant as to how to proceed with my applications, I needn't have worried. Jirina was excellent and smoothed the path for us, I have no hesitation in recommending VSM Pharmacy for their great service and fantastic customer care.
Thierry and the people here are lovely and the service is far better than multiple London companies we used. Fast, efficient, reliable. Many thanks to the team.
VSM is a great local pharmacy. Every single staff member cares for the community. They keep offering new services and simplifying things for their patients. It is a great place to work. It is a great place to shop. It is just a great place.
Great service, super efficient, I needed fit to fly covid tests and they gave all the advice needed before booking the test. Accommodated all family tests together. The chat service to get all the info was really helpful. Highly recommended. Thank you
VJ is the kindest most caring pharmacist I have ever met. He went out of his way to check how I was coping after my husband died, he always has time for customers and his support has been invaluable to me. They delivered my prescriptions straight to my door in lockdown without me even asking. All of the staff are lovely people. I totally agree that VSM is the best pharmacy around.
This is the best pharmacy around. I don’t agree with the one star comment! The staff in VSM are the kindest most helpful i have come across in any pharmacy or store alike! They are always smiling, polite efficient! and friendly. VJ is a lovely man, who clearly cares a lot for all his customers. I will forever influence all my friends and family to us VSM.
Every skin is different, and some lesions require more care than others. The initial assessment and the treatment of one skin lesion is £69.99. Additional lesions of the same type are £29.99 per lesion. The pharmacist will confirm the costs before the treatment.
The CryoPen emits a fine jet of nitrous oxide under high pressure, which allows the clinician to work with millimetre precision.
This destroys the tissue by freezing the inter-cellular fluid, forming ice shards and crystals which rupture the membrane, thereby destroying the cell. That means there will be no collateral damage to healthy tissue. It’s so incredibly accurate and practical.
Many different superficial skin lesions can be treated with cryotherapy. That includes
Warts and verruca
Skin Tags
Moles
Age spots and pigmented spots
Cherry Angioma
Mollucum contagiosum
Milia
Solar lentigo
It is essential that a correct diagnosis is made before treatment as we do not treat any cancerous lesions as these are more appropriately managed and followed up on the NHS.
If a lesion looks suspicious of skin cancer, you will be advised to seek advice from your GP
There will be a pain sensation similar to a stinging nettle on the skin when the nitrous oxide reaches the bottom of the area. There might be a little residual stinging for a few minutes after treatment.
Treatment is usually painless, or with a slight discomfort. Initially, immediately after the treatment has been applied you may get any of the following:
Slight redness due to the initial inflammation, this is a normal and part of the healing process
You may get a small dry scab
Itching may occur, usually within a few minutes of treatment and it can last up to 30min.
Blisters may form with any treatment to the skin and can happen to anyone. Any blistering will not affect the outcome of the treatment.
The healing time after cryotherapy for skin conditions can vary depending on the size and location of the treated area, as well as individual factors such as age and overall health. In general, the healing process can take anywhere from 1 to 4 weeks.
