| Warts
A wart is a small area of hardened skin that usually has a bumpy
surface. Warts come in many sizes, colors, and shapes.
They can appear anywhere on the body. Kids get them most often on
the hands, feet, and face. Most warts are benign, which means they
won't harm your body. Anybody can get warts, but kids get them more
often than adults do.
Doctors really don't know why some
kids get warts and other kids stay wart-free. It could be that some
people's immune (infection fighting) systems make them less likely
to get warts.
You might have heard that you can get warts from touching a frog
or a toad, but this isn't true! But you can develop warts -- like
you can catch a cold or the flu -- after catching a certain virus.
The viruses that cause warts are called human papilloma (say: pah-pih-loh-mah)
viruses, or HPV for short.
HPV viruses are like other germs. The wart virus loves warm, moist
places like small cuts or scratches on your hands or feet. Warts
can grow for many months - sometimes a year or more - before they
are big enough to see.
The Laser Clinic lasers feature innovative ultra-long pulse duration,
the longest offered in a laser
that treats Warts. This means that
each pulse delivers laser energy to targeted blood vessels over
longer periods of time, resulting in a gentle heating effect and
uniform results.
By heating targeted vessels more gently, The Laser Clinic avoids
the downtime that bruising may cause (otherwise known as purpura).
The Laser Clinic combines large laser
spot sizes with the ability to vary laser pulse durations. This
allows treatments to be quick,
effective, and comfortable. Results
may vary based on your individual situation. Please contact us for
details.
