WART REMOVAL

Plantar warts are small, rough growths on the feet that can appear very similar to corns. They usually show up on the balls and heels of the feet, which are the areas that bear the most pressure. This pressure may also cause a wart to grow inward beneath a hard, thick layer of skin (callus). Plantar warts are caused by HPV, which is a virus that enters through tiny cuts or breaks on the bottom of the feet.

There are 3 main options for Plantar wart removal:

​

1\ Nitrous freeze

2\ Acid Treatment

3\ Nitrous/Acid combination

​

Plantar warts can often be very difficult to removal, so often a nitrous freeze and acid combination is required. There are options with mild pain to moderate pain depending on the individual requirements or tolerances of the patient.

What is the Freezpen?

Freezpen is a cryotherapy device that uses the precise application of Nitrous Oxide (liquid N2O) to effectively treat plantar warts on your feet.

Freezpen (Cryotherapy) allows treatments to be done at a very high success rate in a way that is less painful to patients and less likely to cause hyperpigmentation or scaring.
