Understanding Verrucas (Plantar Warts)
Verrucas, or plantar warts, are lesions that typically occur on the soles of your feet or hands and are caused by the Human Papillomavirus (HPV). While the virus is essentially harmless, the lesions can cause discomfort.
Verruca usually clear up on their own without treatment. However, if you’re struggling with painful, stubborn, or extensive verrucae, we offer a range of treatment options. Book a Verruca Consultation appointment and we can assess the verruca, talk you through all the treatment options, and advise which options may be suitable for you.
Topical verruca treatment
Swift therapy treatment
Faulkner’s needling procedure
Verruca needling is performed under local anaesthetic. The Faulkner’s needling method works by using a sterile needle to create multiple controlled punctures to the affected area of skin, stimulating an effective immune response to the virus.
Swift therapy treatment
Swift microwave therapy is delivered through a handheld probe to treat affected tissue in a precise and controlled way. It’s quick, does not require local anaesthetic, and there are no dressings required after the procedure so you can just get on with your day.
