About the procedure
Patients will have access to a wide range of treatment options, including such as topical therapies, cryotherapy, and surgical excision. There is no established formal treatment procedure, and the choice of treatment depends on factors such as lesion location, morphology, and patient preference.
The right candidates
Candidates can qualify for the procedure if they have a confirmed wart or condyloma diagnosis, are in good general health, and have low levels of stress on the skin or other parts of the body where the procedure will be performed. In female patients, it is also important that they are not pregnant.
Preparing for the procedure
Since warts can appear for a variety of reasons, preparing for this procedure will depend on the agreed-upon course of treatment. A specialized dermatological examination will determine the type of treatment that’s right for your situation.
Details about the procedure
Surgical treatment is usually only reserved for larger warts, complex cases, or when other methods of treatment proved ineffective. Local anesthesia is used during the procedure itself.
During your consultation session, our team will make sure to acquaint you with the pros and cons of each different treatment, the risks, the chances of success, and how to prepare for the procedure. Warts and condyloma have a wide range of causes, and therefore treatments vary.
Recovery post procedure
Many warts heal on their own over the course of weeks, months, or years, and don’t leave behind any scarring. If, however, treatment is carried out in a too short a time period, the chances of repeat cases increase.
To avoid this, treatment should continue for another one to two weeks after the warts are gone. In any case, periodic checkups are required to decrease the risk of warts reappearing or spreading.
Possible precautions
Most warm removal procedures are low-risk. When surgery is required, there is a small chance of potential scarring. Our team relies on the most advanced methods of wart removal to minimize such risks.
