What You Should Know About Wart and Verruca Treatment
Most effective treatments require multiple sessions, depending on factors such as the age and size of the lesion. Each session is typically brief, lasting only a few minutes, with treatment applied directly to the affected area.
While treatment is generally well-tolerated, some people may experience mild discomfort during the procedure. This sensation is usually short-lived, and prolonged pain afterward is uncommon.
Follow-up sessions are important and are usually scheduled 4–6 weeks apart. This ensures the virus is fully treated and allows the skin time to heal between sessions.
The affected area may appear improved between 2-4 weeks after your first treatment but this does not mean the lesion is healed. You may still need to complete a full treatment course to properly kill the virus.
Attempting to treat warts and verrucae at home can sometimes worsen the problem or spread the virus to other areas. Specialist treatment ensures:
- Proper assessment of the lesion type and severity
- Safe and effective removal techniques
- Reduced risk of scarring or recurrence
