Are you waiting to get your wart removed?
If you are waiting to get your wart or mole removed, you must know about its treatment. Wart removal in Ludhiana aims to destroy the tissue of the wart, usually by burning — electrosurgery or laser or by freezing – cryotherapy. It can be treated using strong acids such as TCA or salicylic acid to peel layers. A few approaches help in stimulating the immune system — microwave therapy or injections, thereby combating the HPV virus. Choices vary from over-the-counter acids like salicylic acid for home use to various professional procedures such as surgery, cryotherapy or microwave treatments, with their success relying on the type, location of the wart, as well as the immunity of the patient. On the other hand, mole removal is a common and safe procedure which needs to be performed by well-qualified dermatologists or plastic surgeons for medical as well as cosmetic reasons. Though it is a minor medical procedure, it requires medical excellence on the part of the surgeon to eliminate the moles, as they can be suspected of skin cancer.
Common treatment approaches
- Cryotherapy: In the freezing method, to freeze the wart, liquid nitrogen is applied to it. It then forms a blister that helps the wart to lift off the skin. This usually requires multiple sessions.
- Topical acids like Prescription and OTC: The first-line treatment could be salicylic acid in any form — gel, liquid or pads. It peels away the layers of the wart. The therapy involves soaking the wart in lukewarm water, thereby loosening the dead skin, which helps with the removal of the wart.
- Laser surgery: This method makes use of laser light to heat and burn the cells or blood vessels of the wart, thereby cutting off its supply. It can also cause scarring.
- Injections: Medicines such as interferon or bleomycin are injected into stubborn warts. Bleomycin stops the growth of the wart, whereas interferon boosts immunity.
- Electrosurgery or Curettage: It involves burning the wart with electrosurgery, which is a type of electric current, or it can be done by scraping the wart off with the help of a special tool called a curettage. Sometimes it is done after the acid treatment.
Microwave Therapy: This approach makes use of microwaves for heating up water present in the wart cells, as it triggers the immune system to combat the HPV virus, and it usually requires minimal downtime.
