Liquid Nitrogen Cryotherapy available in Port Vila, Vanuatu ❄️

Vanua Medical Clinic & Lab now offers medical cryotherapy using liquid nitrogen, a well-established and safe dermatological technique used worldwide.

Cryotherapy works by applying a cold spray directly to the lesion. The treatment is quick, targeted, and performed by our doctors.

Indications include:
- Common warts
- Actinic keratoses caused by chronic sun exposure
- Selected skin lesions

In a high UV environment like Vanuatu, early treatment of sun-related skin damage is important. Actinic keratoses are precancerous lesions and should not be ignored.

Every lesion is examined during consultation to confirm the diagnosis and ensure cryotherapy is appropriate.

If you have a persistent, rough, or changing skin spot, a medical review can provide reassurance and, if needed, simple treatment.

Regular STI checks are a simple and responsible way to protect your health and your partner’s.

- Once a year for all sexually active adults
- Every 3 to 6 months if you have new or multiple partners
- Before planning a pregnancy
