Wart & Verruca Removal

Fast, effective removal of warts and verrucae with minimal discomfort and quick recovery

Warts and verrucae are common skin growths caused by the human papillomavirus (HPV). While harmless in most cases, they can become painful, spread, or affect confidence, especially on the feet where pressure makes them more uncomfortable. 

Our cryotherapy and curettage treatments offer a fast, clinically effective way to remove them safely.

What to Expect 

Before the procedure 

Brief assessment to determine the best treatment option (cryotherapy or curettage)

During the procedure 

  • Cryotherapy:
    Liquid nitrogen is applied to freeze the wart or verruca, destroying the affected tissue 
  • Curettage:
    Local anaesthetic is used, and the lesion is gently removed using a sterile surgical instrument 

After the procedure 

  • Mild redness, blistering, or soreness may occur 
  • A dressing may be applied (especially after curettage) 
  • Healing typically occurs within a few days (cryotherapy) or 7–10 days (curettage) 
  • Normal activities can usually be resumed immediately
