SWIFT Microwave Therapy (Coming Soon)
What are Plantar Warts?
Plantar warts, sometimes referred to as cauliflowers on the feet, are a common Human Papilloma Virus (HPV) infection that forms on the outer layer of the skin. The reason that they’re sometimes referred to as cauliflowers is due to its round growth formation combined with the uneven, bubbly surface that resembles the vegetable. Oftentimes, tiny red or black spots can be seen in the wart due to the blood supply.
Although HPV related warts can appear anywhere on the body, plantar warts refer specifically to the warts that form on the soles of feet. Typically, plantar warts form as a myriad of tiny skin papules that feel rough at the touch. The plantar warts can occur either alone or as part of a small cluster. If left untreated, the pain felt from the plantar warts can be debilitating and the warts can spread and grow in number.
While eradicating plantar warts can be tricky, due to their ability to consistently evade the body’s immune system, the new Swift microwave therapy has a strong track record for effective wart treatment.
What is Swift Microwave Wart Treatment?
The Swift microwave wart treatment has high success rate! Its resolution rate is higher than any other existing wart treatment to date, including salicylic acid treatments and cryotherapy.
So what exactly is Swift microwave therapy? Well Swift therapy is a breakthrough technology available only to licensed Podiatrists and Dermatologists for the general treatment of certain skin lesions. The Swift wart treatment technology works by placing a special probe and delivering microwave energy directly to the infected skin cells. The microwave energy is emitted in short and sudden bursts at a predetermined depth to ensure it targets only the wart.
To get technical, the emission of microwave energy to the infected skin cells induces a process called Heat Shock. This causes the wart to release particular proteins which enter into the circulatory system. Once this occurs, the body’s immune system is able to recognise the infection and fight off the virus.
