A wart is a viral infection that invades the outer layer of the skin.
These lesions are supplied by blood vessels, which may appear as tiny dark spots clinically.
There are many ways to treat these lesions, including chemical topicals, cryotherapy, microwave treatment, laser therapy or in difficult and chronic cases, surgical removal.
If you suspect you have a wart, it is best to seek medical treatment. Though there are over the counter remedies, if used improperly, these can lead to further complications and pain.

SWIFT Treatment for Warts
How does it work? A focused microwave signal is emitted into the skin to a predetermined depth to ensure only the wart is treated. A process called Heat Shock occurs within infected skin cells of the wart. This causes the wart to release certain proteins into our circulatory system, allowing the immune system to recognize the infection and begin to fight the virus.
Does the treatment hurt? The rapid heating of the wart to 42-45ºC can cause discomfort, however this lasts for a second. This temperature range is only a few degrees warmer than a hot bath, and will not cause any serious tissue damage or scarring.
How many treatments will I need? This is dependent on how you respond to treatment. Most patients require 3-4 treatments, 4 weeks apart or less.
With a success rate of 83%, Swift wart therapy has proven itself to be the best wart therapy available.
