Abstract: A device for non-surgical cold treatment of disorders, like warts includes a container containing a refrigerant having an outlet and a valve communicating with the outlet. An applicator is mounted to the container, said applicator having an outer wall and forming a chamber at least when connected to the container, a heat exchanger within the chamber in fluid communication with the outlet of the container and receiving refrigerant when the valve of the container is opened. A closed contact member is in heat exchange contact with the heat exchanger and is exposed to an outer side of the applicator. The heat exchanger includes a porous member made of a material having a high thermal conductivity and adapted to conduct fluid refrigerant from the outlet of the container to the chamber while the refrigerant extracts heat from the heat exchanger and the contact member.

Abstract: Method and device for treatment of a cutaneous surface or a mucous membrane. The device comprises a container, such as an aerosol can, for containing a composition comprising at least one refrigerant. The container has a container outlet and a valve communicating with the container outlet. An applicator is mounted or mountable to the container. The applicator comprises a heat exchanger, a contact surface and a dispensing channel between the container outlet and one or more applicator outlets arranged for wetting the contact surface. The dispensing channel defining a flow path crossing the heat exchanger. The contact surface can for example be formed by a non-porous layer, e.g. of plastic or rubber.
