Wart Removal
Overview: Wart removal is a medical procedure to remove warts, which are benign skin growths caused by the human papillomavirus (HPV). At Visage Polyclinic LLC, our experienced medical team provides effective and safe wart removal treatments to help restore the health and appearance of your skin.
What Are Warts? Warts are small, raised growths that appear on the skin due to HPV infection. They can appear anywhere on the body but are most common on the hands, feet, and face. While warts are typically harmless, they can be bothersome, unsightly, or painful, especially if they grow in areas that experience frequent friction.
Reasons for Wart Removal:
- Cosmetic Concerns: Warts can be unsightly and affect your appearance, especially if they appear on visible areas like the face or hands.
- Pain: Warts on weight-bearing areas, such as the soles of the feet, can be painful when walking.
- Spreading: Warts are contagious, and if left untreated, they may spread to other areas of the skin or to other people.
- Persistent Warts: If warts do not respond to over-the-counter treatments or continue to grow, professional removal may be necessary.
What to Expect During Wart Removal:
- Assessment: The doctor will evaluate the wart and determine the most appropriate method for removal based on its size, location, and type.
- Treatment Options: Depending on the severity, treatment may include cryotherapy (freezing the wart), laser therapy, or minor surgical excision.
- Anesthesia: Local anesthesia may be applied to ensure comfort during the procedure, depending on the size and location of the wart.
- Wart Removal: The wart will be carefully removed using the chosen treatment method, and the area will be cleaned and dressed.
- Post-Procedure Care: After the procedure, instructions will be provided on how to care for the treated area to avoid infection and ensure proper healing.
Benefits of Wart Removal:
- Improved Appearance: Removal of warts restores the smoothness and appearance of the skin.
- Pain Relief: Warts that cause discomfort, especially on pressure points, can be removed to relieve pain.
- Prevention of Spread: Professional wart removal helps prevent the spread of the virus to other areas of the skin or other people.
- Permanent Solution: In many cases, wart removal provides a long-term solution to prevent future outbreaks.
Post-Treatment Care:
- Keep the area clean and dry to avoid infection.
- Follow the doctor’s instructions for wound care and apply any recommended topical treatments.
- Return for follow-up appointments as needed to ensure proper healing and monitor for any recurrence.
