Individual lesions should clear completely after a single cryotherapy treatment, although it makes sense to treat a second time if lesion persists at the next session. More important is that new lesions can keep appearing for a few weeks, and each should be treated. Or ask your doctor to teach you how to self-treat, e.g. with imiquimod or self-curettage.
