Post-Liquid Nitrogen Treatment
During the treatment with liquid nitrogen, you may have felt a burning sensation – this is normal.
Some patients may develop mild redness and blisters, which is a part of the normal healing process.
Do not pick at or break the blisters.
Do not try to remove the blister yourself as this could increase the risk of infection.
Apply Bacitracin ointment twice-a-day for approximately one week following the procedure (if you are not allergic).
It is fine to get the area wet.
When cleansing the area, do not use harsh abrasives.
Be sure to blot the procedure site dry carefully and delicately.
Avoid taking long baths, washing the dishes (if treated areas are on the hands), and swimming one day after the treatment.
If you start to experience signs of an infection such as fever, swelling, tenderness or oozing from the site, please call our office.
