This cutting-edge treatment uses microwave energy to target and destroy the verruca virus deep within the skin. The procedure is quick, easy and no need for anaesthesia or dressings. Most patients experience significant improvement after just a few sessions, and there’s no downtime – meaning you can get back to your daily activities immediately.
In addition to the emotional impact, verrucas can also be physically painful. The verruca often develops a hard, rough surface that can press into the sensitive tissues of your foot. This buildup of hard skin can cause sharp pain when walking or standing, as the pressure from the verruca can irritate the surrounding areas.
A highly effective treatment, especially for stubborn or multiple verrucas, needling involves puncturing the verruca under local anaesthesia to provoke an immune response. This technique encourages the body to respond to the virus from within, often leading to the complete resolution of the verruca 6-9 months after a single treatment.
Furthermore, the pain associated with verrucas can disrupt your daily routines. You might find yourself avoiding certain tasks or adjusting how you walk to minimise discomfort. This can lead to altered gait patterns, which over time might cause additional strain on other parts of your body, such as your knees or back.
