Wart Removal

Wart removal is a common procedure to eliminate small, hard growths on the skin caused by the human papillomavirus (HPV). These benign skin growths can appear on various parts of the body and, while generally harmless, may cause discomfort or spread to other areas if left untreated.

At Revere Health, warts are often removed through simple, effective treatments such as freezing (cryotherapy) or applying chemical solutions to dissolve the wart tissue. Both methods target the wart, allowing the healthy skin to regenerate once the growth is removed.

Common Wart Removal Methods:
Cryotherapy: This involves freezing the wart with liquid nitrogen, causing it to fall off after a few days. Cryotherapy is a quick, effective treatment with minimal discomfort.
Chemical Treatments: A variety of chemicals can be applied to the wart to gradually dissolve it. These treatments may require multiple applications, depending on the wart’s size and location.
Other Options: In some cases, minor surgical removal or laser treatment may be recommended for more persistent or larger warts.

Benefits of Wart Removal:
Quick Procedure: Most treatments take only a few minutes and can be done in the office.
Effective Results: Wart removal eliminates the growth and reduces the chance of recurrence or spreading.
Minimal Downtime: Patients can typically resume their normal activities immediately following treatment.
