Game-changer for Treating Warts

Traditionally available treatments have been painful, prolonged, or ineffective, often resulting in a high rate of recurrence. Treatments like cryotherapy (freezing), salicylic acid and even surgical excision often aren’t enough to eliminate stubborn plantar warts. “With the freezing technique, it’s difficult to effectively penetrate the thick skin on the bottom of the foo, and often results in painful blisters, “says Dr. Trattner. “Even surgical removal doesn’t guarantee the warts won’t return. “

All that changes now. Introducing Swift, a new microwave technology that eliminates painful and prolonged therapy. With Swift technology, a controlled application of microwave energy is directed at the affected area stimulating the body’s immune system so attack the wart. This three-to-five-minute treatment is virtually painless. Patients are back on their feet immediately with no aftercare required.

“This is a true game changer, “says Dr. Trattner. We’re seeing a success rate of 85% with a less than 1% recurrence rate. “Patients frequently report a noticeable improvement after just one treatment, and by the third treatment for the vast majority of patients the wart is gone. “
