Fortunately, modern dermatology offers several ways to get rid of warts quickly and painlessly.  However, before resorting to radical methods, you need to know what you are fighting against.

 

The main types of warts

Ordinary (vulgar) are dense papules (nodules) from 1 to 10 mm or more, which become coarser over time.  They can be single or localized in small cells, most often formed on the fingers, at the base of the nail, on the hands, less often - on the face, forearms and lower legs.

Flat warts have the same color as the surrounding skin.  They slightly protrude above its surface.  Most often, such warts are multiple and small in size.  They are localized on the face, hands, legs.  It is recommended to remove flat warts with a laser, as it is the least traumatic method that doesn’t leave scars 100%.

Plantar warts are hard formations with a diameter of 1 mm to several centimeters, with clear boundaries and a rough surface, formed under the skin of the feet.  In terms of color, they can be light brown, white with clearly visible black spots.  As they grow, they can become painful and even make walking very difficult.  Quite often, plantar warts are confused with dry corns and they try to get rid of them independently with the help of folk remedies, which often leads to an even greater spread of neoplasms.

 

The mechanism of infection with warts

Infection with HPV (human papillomavirus) is quite simple, in everyday life, through household items, for example, plantar warts are quite easy to catch in the bath or swimming pool.  Microtraumas and cracks, increased skin permeability contribute to faster spread of infection.  The state of immunity also affects the risk of infection.

 

Why is it necessary to remove warts?

All these neoplasms are subject to removal, in some cases antiviral therapy is additionally prescribed.  The main reason for removing warts is the high risk of their spreading throughout the body.  In addition to obvious aesthetic discomfort, around-the-nail warts can cause deformation and exfoliation of the nail, plantar warts can cause severe pain when walking and other unpleasant sensations.

 

Which removal method should be preferred?

Modern dermatology offers methods of removing warts with a laser, liquid nitrogen and with using a radio knife.  In the past, surgical removal of such neoplasms was practiced, but this method is out of date because it is quite traumatic.  All the removal methods listed above are effective and don’t leave scars at the site of the removed neoplasm.  Regarding which method is better to choose, you should consult an experienced dermatologist.

 

Cryodestruction

Removal of warts with liquid nitrogen or cryodestruction - the basis of the method is the precise, concentrated effect of low temperatures on neoplasms, which provokes their destruction.  Liquid nitrogen is applied to the wart using a special applicator.  The direct effect of nitrogen on the skin is very short-term, which makes traumatization impossible.  Complete recovery of the affected area takes place in 10-14 days.  When removing plantar warts with liquid nitrogen, several procedures may be required, this is explained by the growth of neoplasms deep into the tissues.

 

Laser removal of warts

Removal of warts by laser allows you to get rid of the problem efficiently, painlessly and in the shortest possible time.  The laser beam affects only neoplasms without affecting healthy tissues.  The procedure itself takes a few minutes and is practically painless.

Laser removal of warts doesn’t require special care after the procedure, a small brown crust and other traces of exposure disappear on their own within a few days.  The only one thingduring this period, it is necessary to stop visiting swimming pools and saunas, if possible, try not to wet the affected area. This procedure is bloodless, because under the influence of the laser, the vessels are literally welded together and don’t bleed.

Unfortunately, the procedure has its contraindications, including: oncology, skin diseases and inflammation of the skin near the warts, too dark skin, acute coronary syndrome, pregnancy and breastfeeding.

 

Radio wave removal

Removal of warts with a radio knife is carried out with the help of a radio signal aimed at the neoplasm.  Exposure to the radio signal causes evaporation of the intracellular fluid, dissection of the wart and its further destruction.  At the same time, the surrounding tissues remain intact, a blood clot doesn’t form after the wound is opened and the exposure to the radio signal itself has an antiseptic effect that prevents inflammation.  With radio wave removal of warts, there is an accelerated recovery of tissues without any visible signs (scars, scars), which is extremely important if the wart appeared on the face or neck.

All of the above methods require the high skill of a dermatologist, who must accurately determine the depth of the growth of the wart and affect the neoplasm in such a way as not to affect nearby healthy tissues.  That is why we invite you to the "Leoderm" clinic in Lviv, the experience of whose doctors is counted in years of successful work.  After the consultation and examination, you will be prescribed the optimal method of removing warts and after the next visit you will get rid of this unpleasant cosmetic problem.  Call and make an appointment at the Leoderm clinic.  We are waiting for you!
