Verruca treatments

Free guide on how best to self treat verrucas is available to download, by clicking on button below. This is a completely free guide to help people understand what a verruca is and how best to treat them.

I have a number of different treatments available for dealing with verrucas & warts. The treatments available will be discussed at the first consultation & the best treatment procedure will then be chosen for each individual. A short description of each type of treatment is listed below, more in depth details will be discussed in the clinic.


Needling technique, this is my best treatment option for adults, very high success rate, it involves the use of local anaesthetics to numb the foot & then the use of a needle to puncture the verruca, this works very well on mosaic verruca's (multiple cluster verruca's).

The standard procedure is 2 treatments with an 8 week interval. The treated site will feel 'bruised' for a few days following treatment.

Needling to finger/hand warts is also very effective, so far I have treated several patients for finger warts and had a 90% clear rate after just 1 treatment.

​

Strong acids which are very effective but can be a little uncomfortable when applied, treatment course is usually an average of 6 treatments at 2 to 3 week intervals. Benefits -  cheapest form of treatment, good success rate with children, lower response with adults.
