What is cryotherapy?
Cryotherapy is a medical procedure that uses liquid nitrogen to freeze and eliminate lesions caused by HPV or other benign lesions of the genital skin.
It is performed in the doctor's office, without the need for general anesthesia or recovery time. It is one of the most effective and safest techniques to remove genital warts.
Benefits highlighted:

Visible results from the first session
Minimal risk and mild discomfort

When is it recommended?
Cryotherapy is recommended in all cases where there are visible lesions in the genital or perianal area caused by human papillomavirus (HPV) or other types of benign warts.
It is an option especially indicated when a quick, outpatient treatment with minimal discomfort is sought.
Genital warts (condylomata) caused by HPV
Benign lesions on penis, scrotum or pubis
Warts on vulva or perianal area (according to medical evaluation)

Frequently Asked Questions about cryotherapy and Human Papillomavirus (HPV)
If you have doubts about the treatment of genital warts caused by HPV or about the cryotherapy procedure, here we answer the most common questions of our patients.
Find out how this treatment works, how long it takes to take effect, what care is required and when it is best to visit a specialist for assessment.
Does cryotherapy cure HPV definitively?
No. Cryotherapy removes visible warts caused by HPV, but the virus may remain dormant in the body. The goal of treatment is to control the lesions and prevent transmission. In some cases, the immune system eliminates the virus over time.
How long does it take for a wart to fall off after cryotherapy?
Generally, the warts dry up and fall off 7 to 14 days after treatment. A small crust or local redness may appear, which disappears as the area heals.
Can I have sexual intercourse after a cryotherapy session?
It is recommended to wait 7 to 10 days, or until the skin is completely healed, to avoid irritation or contagion. The doctor will evaluate the appropriate moment according to each case.
Does cryotherapy leave scars on the genitals?
There is usually no visible scarring. The procedure is minimally invasive and is performed with precision to respect the surrounding healthy tissue.
Does cryotherapy work for all HPV affected areas?
Yes, it can be applied on the penis, vulva, anus or pubis, adapting the intensity and duration of treatment to the location of the lesions.
What care do I need after treatment?
Keep the area clean and dry, avoid friction or sexual intercourse until complete healing and follow the instructions of the urologist. It is not recommended to apply creams or alcohol unless indicated by the specialist.
Can I get the HPV vaccine if I have already had warts?
Yes, the vaccine helps prevent new infections with other subtypes of the virus and reduce the risk of recurrence, even if you have already had contact with HPV.
Is the treatment the same for men and women?
The procedure is similar, although the medical evaluation varies according to the affected area. In women it is usually combined with a gynecological examination if there is a history of cervical lesions.
