At FeetFlow Clinic, we understand that verrucas can be challenging and persistent. While many methods are available, electrocoagulation is an advanced and effective form of electrosurgery for tackling stubborn verrucas. In addition to electrocoagulation, we offer a variety of other treatments, including acid treatments, silver nitrate applications, and Verrutop. This comprehensive approach ensures that we can tailor treatment to each patient's needs and skin type.
What is Electrocoagulation?
Electrocoagulation is a specialized technique within electrosurgery that uses an electric current to generate heat, which coagulates and destroys the verruca tissue. This precision treatment targets the verruca at its core without affecting the surrounding skin, essential for minimizing discomfort and encouraging faster healing.
The electrocoagulation process is typically quick, with minimal recovery time, and is effective even for deep or treatment-resistant verrucas. Many patients experience substantial improvement after a single session, making it a convenient and effective option.
Benefits of Electrocoagulation for Verruca Removal
Effective for Stubborn Verrucas: Electrocoagulation is highly effective for verrucas that don’t respond well to topical treatments. It penetrates deep into the tissue to eliminate the verruca root, which helps prevent recurrence.
Minimally Invasive: This treatment method minimises trauma to the surrounding tissue, allowing for quicker recovery compared to more invasive surgical methods.
Targeted Treatment: Electrocoagulation allows us to focus on the verruca itself, preserving healthy surrounding skin and reducing potential discomfort.
High Success Rate: Many patients see significant improvement after one treatment, with minimal discomfort during the procedure.
Other Verruca Treatment Options at FeetFlow Clinic
In addition to electrocoagulation, we offer a variety of alternative treatment methods to suit different types of verrucas and patient preferences:
Acid Treatment: Acid treatments involve applying a high-strength acid directly to the verruca, gradually breaking down the wart tissue layer by layer. This option is suitable for patients looking for a gradual but effective solution. Salicylic and trichloroacetic acids are commonly used in these treatments.
Silver Nitrate Applications: Silver nitrate is another effective verruca treatment option. It acts as an antiseptic and destroys verruca tissue over multiple applications. It is beneficial for verrucas located in sensitive areas.
Verrutop: Verrutop is a topical solution that uses a nitric-zinc complex to treat verrucas by drying and peeling the verruca tissue. This unique approach is non-invasive and generally requires multiple applications, making it a good option for patients who prefer a chemical-based treatment over physical intervention.
