Stubborn warts on hands, feet, or face — molluscum spreading in children or adults — viral skin growths that won't resolve on their own. We select the right removal technique for each type, location, and patient to achieve clearance with minimal scarring.
From plantar warts to facial molluscum — we choose the safest, most effective removal method based on type, location, and age of the patient.
Rough, raised growths on hands and fingers caused by HPV. Treated with liquid nitrogen cryotherapy (2–3 sessions) or electrocautery for larger isolated warts. Recurrence prevented by boosting local immunity.
Deep, painful warts on the soles of the feet — often with black dots (thrombosed capillaries). Combined cryotherapy and keratolytic treatment achieves clearance without creating painful scars that interfere with walking.
Small, smooth, flat-topped warts on the face, forehead, and backs of hands — especially common in teenagers. Light cryotherapy or topical tretinoin avoids pigmentation change on darker skin types.
Pearly, umbilicated papules caused by a poxvirus — highly contagious, especially in children with eczema. We use gentle extraction, cantharidin application, or imiquimod depending on age, number, and location.
Thread-like warts on the face, neck, and eyelids — or warts around the nails making clipping painful. Precise electrocautery or snip excision removes them cleanly in a single session without damage to surrounding skin.
HPV-related warts in the anogenital region — require confidential, sensitive management. We offer topical podophyllin, TCA, or electrocautery with counselling on transmission, recurrence, and HPV vaccination.
Most warts and molluscum are diagnosed clinically. Dermoscopy confirms atypical presentations and distinguishes warts from seborrhoeic keratoses, corns, or other mimics that require different management.
We select cryotherapy, electrocautery, chemical destruction (salicylic acid, TCA, cantharidin), or simple extraction based on wart type, location, skin type, patient age, and pain tolerance.
Cryotherapy takes 30–60 seconds per lesion. Electrocautery is performed after local anaesthetic. You'll receive aftercare instructions — keep the area dry, avoid picking, apply antibiotic ointment if blistered.
Most warts require 2–4 treatment sessions at 2–3 week intervals. We review response between sessions and adjust the method if the first approach shows insufficient effect.
For widespread or recurrent warts, we add immunomodulators (imiquimod, intralesional immunotherapy with Candida antigen) to stimulate the patient's own immune response against HPV.
Generic pharmacy treatments fail because they don't distinguish between wart types. We do — and choose the technique that works fastest for each specific case.
Liquid nitrogen cryotherapy available in-clinic — no waiting for referrals. Multiple lesions treated in a single session.
Dermoscopy before every procedure ensures accurate diagnosis and the right treatment choice — preventing unnecessary procedures on lesions that aren't warts.
Molluscum in children managed with the least uncomfortable techniques first — topical options before any invasive procedure, with parent counselling on spread prevention.
Sensitive, private consultation for anogenital warts — with full counselling on HPV, partner notification, and vaccination options.

Precisely applied to freeze and destroy wart tissue at −196°C. The gold standard for common, plantar, and filiform warts. Takes 30–60 seconds per lesion, with a blister forming and clearing over 1–2 weeks.
Most Wart TypesAfter local anaesthetic, a fine electrical current destroys wart tissue completely. Ideal for large single warts, filiform warts, and periungual warts where complete removal in one session is preferred.
Large / Single WartsSalicylic acid for plantar warts, trichloroacetic acid for genital warts, cantharidin for molluscum and warts in children — office-applied chemicals that cause blister formation and targeted wart removal.
Chemical AgentsImiquimod cream stimulates local interferon response against HPV. Intralesional Candida antigen injections provoke a systemic immune response effective even against distant warts not directly injected.
Recurrent / MultipleDon't pick or scratch warts or molluscum — this spreads the virus to nearby skin. Avoid sharing towels, razors, or footwear. Cover plantar warts with waterproof plasters at swimming pools.
