Wart Removal
Warts have traditionally been removed using modalities such as surgical excision, cryotherapy, or chemical treatments. However, with the advent of laser technology, they can now be removed by simply destroying the root vasculature with the laser, thereby avoiding collateral tissue damage or scarring, as well as minimizing treatment discomfort and eliminating the long healing time associated with surgical incisions.
What type of laser do you use to treat warts?
At 207 Laser, formerly Maine Laser Clinic, we utilize the LightPod Neo, featuring MicroPulse-1064 technology, which delivers exceptionally high power for deep penetration of laser energy. The laser selectively targets hemoglobin and, in doing so, destroys the vasculature that feeds a wart lesion. As a result, the blood supply is removed, and the wart eventually dies off. This modality is less painful than traditional wart removal methods, and the laser treatment avoids the damage or destruction of adjacent skin tissue, which can be significant, particularly when surgical excision is used on plantar warts of the feet and other larger warts.
Additionally, our laser is uniquely gentle due to its 0.65-msec pulse duration, making it more tolerable for treating genital warts, plantar warts, or other sensitive areas compared to traditional long-pulse Nd: YAG lasers.
