  • What are the benefits of wart treatment?

    Wart treatment works to remove painful warts, clusters of warts or warts that have failed to go away on their own. Many sufferers find warts to be an annoyance and therefore wart treatment can help to improve confidence.

  • What are the different types of wart treatment available?

    There are a number of different types of wart treatment available and a dermatologist can advise you on the best course of action for your warts. Laser treatment is a popular option for treating warts as well as prescribed medication.

    Plantar warts, also known as viral warts or verrucas, are small rough growths on the feet caused by HPV. They can be challenging to treat because the wart forms under the skin. Swift microwave therapy has between an 80% to 83% success rate and most patients see their warts completely disappear, typically in just one to three sessions. It works by delivering microwave energy directly into the verruca to predetermined depth. The microwave energy heats the targeted skin cells, triggering them to fight the virus without damaging the surrounding healthy tissue.

    Seborrhoeic warts, also known as seborrhoeic keratoses and basal cell papillomas are benign growths caused by a build-up of skin cells. These are commonly found on the face and trunk and are safely removed using shave excision.

  • How long does wart removal treatment take?

    Wart treatment is a relatively quick procedure and you may find the problem is solved after one course of treatment. However, those with weak immune systems can find it takes longer.

    The time it takes to treat a wart depends on the type of treatment used and differs in each individual. Further information can be provided by a qualified dermatologist.

  • Are wart treatments safe?

    Treating a wart is a safe and relatively straight forward. Laser treatment is an especially effective wart treatment and is completely safe for both adults and children.

  • Who will perform the wart treatment?
