being very pale skinned I get a lot of early skin cancers I have 4 at the moment and there always popping up, I was living in Spain before coming here and made a trip to the dermatologist every 6months or earlier if I had a particularly problematic early cancer, all the doctors I saw treated me with Freezing using liquid nitrogen as is recommended by Mayo clinic and it gives an instant result. ( and yes I do apply suntan lotion)
In Punta Cana area I've been to two dermatologists and they say they don't use this freezing method one I've stuck with has had me put some cream on the keratoses for 2 weeks which burns the skin and I need to go back to then have acid applied to it, so what used to take one visit to doctor in Spain now takes 2to 3 weeks and 2 to 3 doctor visits. I trust and prefer the less time consuming freezing method.
my question is does anyone know of a dermatologist preferably in the Punta Cana/ Bavaro area that will freeze the keratoses with liquid nitrogen ?
save all this messing around.
Freezing. Your doctor may destroy actinic keratoses and some small, early skin cancers by freezing them with liquid nitrogen (cryosurgery). The dead tissue sloughs off when it thaws.
