Does anyone know where I can get some Liquid Nitrogen treatment for some skin spots?

 

I had some treatment from a skin cancer specialist in Australia pre-covid and she said I'll need some more treatment in the months ahead, however, I'm unable to return to her at the present time. So I like to get some further treatment here. However, a couple of clinic I've contacted only do laser, I don't want laser, want Liquid Nitrogen Cryotherapy.

 

I live in Korat, so any suggestions/recommendations for Korat or Khon Kaen or Saraburi (or anywhere near to Korat) I'd prefer a clinic as I don't really want to go sit in a hospital for half a day in these current times.

I had a head to toe skin check up with Dr. Charoen Choonhakarn at Khonkaen Ram hospital and had some spots dealt with using liquid nitrogen treatment (cryo surgery). Check up and treatment about 4000 baht. The checkup was very thorough and his English is excellent. I think he's at the govt hospital too if looking to save some money.

Many years ago I had a wart frozen off and they used an aerosol. 

 

 

Yes when I had my freezing done the doc used a small aerosol cylinder, spent about 2 seconds on each spot.

Thank Kee Tua. I'll look further into your recommendation.

^ Tecnically could do it yourself. A small funnel and a freeze aerosol from Amorn Electrionics.

 

If we had three hands!

I have thought of doing it myself, get some liquid nitrogen and use cotton buds to apply it. However, a skin specialist knows whether to apply to just the spot or to the surrounding skin as well, and how much to apply, so for the sake of a few thousand baht I'll get a specialist to do it.

Be aware that clinics are for beauty or general local care and not likely to have or know how to use if they did.  Even many hospitals do not have available.  Skin cancer is very rare for Thai so few doctors will have much of a clue in that regard.  Hospital out patient facilities are the normal treatment for anything medical here outside of facelifts.

I have had a couple of barnacles removed here, the skin clinic used diathermy with a local anesthetic.

Liquid nitrogen is extremely dangerous, only someone trained in its use should be employing it.

Go to a big private hospital with this printed:

แพทย์ผิวหนัง  which means dermatologist. There will usually be one specializing in that area.
