Liquid nitrogen is a cryogenic substance that freezes cells upon contact, causing them to die. When applied to tissues, the extreme cold temperature of liquid nitrogen destroys the cells by disrupting their structures and metabolic processes, leading to tissue necrosis and subsequently removal. This process is commonly used in medical procedures such as cryotherapy to remove warts or precancerous skin lesions.
