Warts

Warts

The way warts are treated by Jacqui Bannister at Skin Revision, is either with Plaxel Plasma or more likely, by using our medical-grade CryoPen Cryotherapy. The fine jet of nitrous oxide, freezes the membrane within the wart lesion at minus 89 degrees, causing the supply of blood to the wart, to stop. The wart will eventually fall off over the coming weeks.

Warts are the rough growths of an HPV virus. There are over 100 types and any area of the skin can be affected. Common warts or Plantar warts, are most commonly found on the hands, especially the fingers, hands, knees, scalp and the face. They are most commonly found in children from a very young age through to teenagers. One in ten people will have a wart at some stage.

Can children have treatment for their Warts?

Providing there is a parent or guardian present, then I am happy to treat children from ages 6, 7, 8, 9, 10 years – 17 years of age.

The procedure is very safe and has minimal discomfort during or after treatment. It is important to add, that all warts are different and may require a number of treatments to remove. However, you will be given realistic expectations and costs during your free wart assessment over the phone and in-person. You can then decide if you would like to proceed or not.

How do Warts spread?

Warts can be very contagious, althought harmless, and usually spread from direct skin contact or in damp places. Prime examples are swimming pools and communal showers. If you scratch your wart, the viral particles may spread to other areas of your skin. They can develop individually or in clusters.

Wart removal with Plaxel Plasma Pen

If I (Jacqui Bannister) was to treat the wart using Plaxel Plasma, it would send plasma energy into the wart which will heat and shrink the tissue. This creates an area of targeted cell trauma. The wart will crust over and detach over a period of weeks.

Is the Wart treatment successful?

CryoPen is a medical-grade Cryotherapy and used in hospitals. This particular Cryotherapy treatment is reknowned to be the most successful. It is often advisable to soak, ideally with Salicylic acid solution first, before coming to a Wart specialist or dermatologist.
CryoPen will freeze the affected area of the Wart at -89 degrees C. There is minimal discomfort on the wart or the surrounding areas. It may feel a little sore for about 5 minutes.
It may need two treatments or even three, if the Wart is old with longer roots.
Providing the necessary after-care has been adhered to, the Wart will gradually fall off and the skin will be left blemish-free.

What is the most successful wart treatment?

CryoPen is a medical-grade Cryotherapy and used in hospitals. This particular Cryotherapy treatment is reknowned to be the most successful. It is often advisable to soak, ideally with Salicylic acid solution first, before coming to a Wart specialist or dermatologist.
CryoPen will freeze the affected area of the Wart at -89 degrees C. The feeling is of intense cold but only in the treated area.
The Wart will feel sore for about 5 minutes before the minimal pain wears off.
It may need two treatments or even three, if the Wart is old with longer roots. It is a skin virus and so an old Wart can take these further treatments.

Depending on the nature of the wart, Plaxel Plasma is also used successfully.

It is unknown if the Wart will get bigger or worse if left untreated.
You may try over the counter treatments first to see if that is a remedy.
If that does not work, or the Warts do not diminish on their own accord, then it would be advisable to get the Wart treated asap. If left untreated, the Warts may become sore or painful and may spread to other parts of the body or to other people.
