A wart is a benign skin growth caused by the human papillomavirus (HPV). Due to the viral nature of its emergence and the lack of drugs against HPV, the only effective and reliable way to get rid of the new growth is to remove it with a laser. The peculiarity of warts is that they are not accompanied by symptoms, but they can quickly spread throughout the body, including its open areas, for instance, the face. Because of this, warts can cause not only physical, but also psychological discomfort.
Wart removal methods. There are different ways to get rid of warts. One of the oldest methods is cryodestruction – in other words, using liquid nitrogen. However, low efficiency can be noted as one of the disadvantages of this method – warts may not disappear completely, while a large number of procedures can lead to tissue scarring. In addition, the site of the procedure requires special care – otherwise there is a risk of infection. Another way to eliminate warts is with electrocoagulation. This method allows for radically removing these tumors. The problem is that, during the procedure, strong heating of the tissue occurs, which causes scars and burns. There is also a chemical method for removing warts. In fact, today it is hardly ever used, since the effects of acid are difficult to control. Owing to this, the effectiveness of wart removal is low, and the risk of chemical burns is quite high. A number of medical institutions remove warts surgically. However, the use of the scalpel invariably results in a noticeable mark on the skin, even in cases where a cosmetic intradermal suture is applied. The most modern method of getting rid of warts is laser treatment with the Vbeam Candela device, used in the Era Esthetic Avenue network of medical centers. Removing warts using Vbeam Candela (USA). The VBeam device acts on warts by coagulating the vessels feeding the wart. Thanks to the light beam, you can get rid of new growths in 1-2 procedures. After the session, the wart falls off on its own, leaving no traces behind. In addition, the laser procedure is completely painless and does not require recovery. Removing warts using GentleMax Pro Candela (USA). The GentleMax Pro Candela neodymium laser affects warts by coagulating the vessels that feed the wart. Exposure to light deprives the tumor of its ability to grow and leads to its demise. Removing warts using CO2Re Candela (USA). The CO2Re Candela laser targets the wart with a laser beam that rapidly increases the temperature and vaporizes the tumor cells. During the procedure, tissue removal occurs in thin layers until the wart is completely eliminated. After the procedure, the wound is treated with an antiseptic drug.

The human papillomavirus is literally everywhere, and it is very easy to become infected with it. You can reduce the risk of infection by following a few simple rules: Do not touch anyone’s warts. Use personal hygiene products and do not share them with other people, including loved ones. Do not leave cuts and scratches on the skin open – they should be covered with a band-aid or covered with clothing. Wash your hands frequently and thoroughly. Moisturize the skin if necessary. Dry and cracked skin is an ideal condition for infection. Avoid biting your nails and cuticles. The resulting micro-injuries can cause infection. Use flip-flops or pool shoes in locker rooms, swimming pools and public baths. Treat hyperhidrosis – excessive sweating – in a timely manner. Excessive sweating is a risk factor for HPV
