Plantar Warts Treatment & Removal

Foot warts (plantar warts) are caused by a virus. You may notice little black dots in the wart. People sometimes think these dots are splinters. They are actually the blood vessels that nourish the wart. You can get viral warts anywhere you walk barefoot, such as the locker room, karate studio, dance studio, local pool, or even from a pedicure salon.
Skip the home remedies for wart removal. Treatment of plantar warts requires the expertise of your Podiatrist.

CryoPen For Warts
The CryoPen system provides a means of freezing tissue without the use of cryogenic liquids or gases, such as liquid nitrogen, carbon dioxide, or nitrous oxide. The system consists of hand-held freeze modules, a refrigeration unit, and reusable tips. The system will deliver effective temperatures for tissue ablation. The CryoPen system is designed to ablate tissue by the application of extreme cold temperature.
The CryoPen offers physicians and patients a safer, more convenient alternative to liquid nitrogen, carbon dioxide, and nitrous oxide.
The CryoPen also makes cryosurgery safer and easier for office staff, who will no longer have to regularly handle and order hazardous gases or liquids mandatory of most traditional methods. Plus, with the CryoPen, the treatment has a minimal scarring and no need for anesthetic.
