Advanced Verruca Treatment Guide: 4 Professional Solutions

Understanding Verrucas: Professional Treatment Options

Struggling with persistent verrucas? Our HCPC-registered podiatrists at Kenilworth Footcare offer four advanced treatment solutions for these stubborn viral infections.

What are verrucas?

Verrucas are warts on the feet caused by the Human Papillomavirus (HPV). They often show up on pressure points (like the heel or ball of the foot), which can make them sore when you walk. Verrucas can also spread to other areas of the foot (or to other people), and they don’t always respond to over-the-counter treatments.

Our professional treatment options

1) Swift Microwave Therapy

Swift is a modern, non-invasive treatment that uses controlled microwave energy to target the verruca and stimulate the body’s immune response. Most people need around 3–4 sessions, and you can usually return to normal activities straight away. No anaesthetic is required.

2) K-Laser Treatment

K-Laser is a precise, targeted therapy designed to treat verrucas while minimising impact on the surrounding tissue. It can be particularly effective for surface verrucas, with the treatment depth carefully controlled. It’s suitable for most patients.

3) Verrutop Treatment

Verrutop is a specialised chemical solution applied professionally in clinic. It’s designed to be gentle but effective, and it can also be combined with other treatments where appropriate. Because it needs expert application, it’s important this is done under professional guidance.

4) Verruca Needling

Verruca needling is carried out under local anaesthetic. A fine needle is used to stimulate an immune response, helping the body recognise and fight the virus. We’ll talk you through what to expect and provide clear aftercare advice to support healing and improve results.
