A condyloma is not only an unpleasant skin defect, but also a complex disease that requires complex treatment. The main cause of papilloma proliferation is an inactive virus in the human body. Laser wart removal is a safe modern method. Used all over the world: fast healing and minimal risk of recurrence allow you to remove warts in children and adults without consequences.
Modern method of removing warts
Reduced immunity is a prerequisite for the appearance of warts. Growths grow rapidly and can form entire clusters. You can become infected with the papillomavirus - the root cause of the disease - through contact with a sick person or through their personal belongings. Whatever the reason for the appearance of warts, they must be treated. The first stage of a complete treatment is the removal of all formations on the skin.
Modern methods of wart removal include radio waves and laser removal. Laser skin cancer removal is the simplest and most painless procedure that guarantees a lasting result. A mini surgery is performed under local anesthesia and without additional long-term preparation. The subtle removal of the accumulation is performed in a specialized office and only by an experienced doctor. The stages of the procedure and the qualifications of the doctor are a guarantee that there will be no recurrences of the disease in the near future.
What kind of warts are removed with a laser?
Papules can vary in appearance and position in the human body. Warts affect the hands, feet, back and face of both adults and children. There are no age restrictions for patients with papillomatosis. With the help of laser treatment, plantar warts can be removed. These are neoplasms of the foot that grow on the cornea of the skin. In layers, the dead skin is transformed into a seal with a visible clear nucleus in the center.
The laser is used to remove common warts: developing a dense, rounded structure. Such warts differ in skin color (they are much darker). Over time, common warts increase in size and bother a person: they cause serious discomfort and occasionally injury.
Laser treatment is used to remove warts. The size of the small formations does not exceed 1 cm. The growths have a flat structure and on the side look like nodules of skin color. Flat warts do not rise much above the skin and rarely cause discomfort to a person. Before prescribing a laser technique to remove the buildup, an accurate diagnosis is made - the warts and their type are examined.
Benefits of the process
During the initial examination, it is necessary to determine the condition of the tumor. If it is not cancerous, it can be removed using modern methods. When it comes to warts on the legs, they are removed in several stages - such formations often have rods that grow into soft tissues. Warts on the feet are constantly hurting and causing discomfort while walking. Only with the help of the laser method, the removal of such warts is done in one step and allows you to recover quickly after the procedure.
Root calluses are difficult to remove without recurrence: simple surgical resection is ineffective. Laser treatment helps to destroy all the cells that are infected with the virus, even those that are not visible to the naked eye.
The advantages of laser treatment include: the speed of the procedure and the speed of recovery. In total, the removal of the growth does not take more than half an hour, depending on the complexity of the tumor and the number of warts. The minimal number of contraindications makes laser treatment universal and safe for children. The procedure is allowed to be performed from the age of 5 years.
The painless procedure is suitable for people with hypersensitivity: a small amount of medication and pain reliever is used to remove the warts.
After laser treatment, there are virtually no scars or hard scars left on the affected area of skin. Fast recovery and low probability of complications are the main advantages of the procedure compared to other modern techniques. The innovative equipment allows mini surgery without noticeable discomfort to the patient. The patient is rehabilitated at home under his normal conditions.
Contraindications to this procedure
Effective technique has many contraindications. During the preparation of the mini surgery, the patient undergoes a complete examination of the body. Based on the results obtained, the treating physician evaluates further treatments and risks for the patient.
Contraindications for laser treatment:
- skin rash and herpes?
- advanced dermatitis?
- high blood pressure?
- acute respiratory diseases (the patient has a weakened immune system after previous illnesses).
- malignant diseases.
A pregnant woman should refuse the procedure: if possible, laser treatment is postponed until after delivery. If a rash of unknown origin occurs in the human body, it is necessary to postpone the removal of warts. Systemic diseases are immediate contraindications for mini-surgery.
Thyroid diseases preclude the use of a laser beam to remove an unpleasant wart. Sun allergy is a rare disease that does not allow the laser procedure: in such cases, the fight against warts is carried out using radio wave therapy.
Severe renal and hepatic impairment is a contraindication to mini-surgery. Before using modern techniques, it is necessary to consider all the contraindications that can cause serious complications in an adult or a child.
How the process is performed
The process is performed under sterile conditions. Previously, the patient underwent blood and urine tests. Based on the results obtained, the type of anesthesia used and the pain medications that will be needed during the laser treatment are determined. The non-invasive method excludes any contact with the skin: the person sits on a comfortable sofa lying down or sitting. A medicine is injected into the sides of the wart, which will reduce the pain.
After 5-10 minutes, the injectable drug takes effect. The laser beam affects the accumulation for a few minutes. After the procedure, the affected area of skin is treated with special means and a bandage is applied.
Half-hour surgery does not require hospitalization of the patient: immediately after laser treatment, the patient returns home alone
Skin treatments and bandages are done at home. During the procedure, the possibility of bleeding is completely ruled out. If there is no cut on the skin, infections or pathogenic microorganisms can not penetrate the wound - secondary postoperative infection is ruled out.
Recovery after laser removal
The healing of the area of skin affected by warts depends directly on the procedure performed. The high-tech laser is completely sterile (bactericidal). It works on the skin and does not cause inflammation - for this reason, no marks or visible scars are left on the body. In the laser treated area, the bacterial or viral pathogen is completely destroyed. Immediately after the procedure, you may feel a slight discomfort under the bandage, which will soon disappear.
The skin is completely restored within 2 weeks (up to a month in people with weakened immunity). A hard crust forms in the treated area: it heals beneath it. Once the lower skin has healed, the crust falls off without further damage.
The bark lasts about 10 days and does not cause discomfort to humans. New skin appears in the third week after the procedure.
Home care
Home care includes periodic skin treatments. The patient treats the cortex and the skin around him with disinfectants. The crust should never be torn or soaked - it protects the new skin.
Due to accidental injury, fungal infection or infection may occur. Such a consequence does not allow the wound to heal, and soon a new tuber appears.
Do not tan until new skin appears: the crust should not be exposed to UV rays. You should not visit the sauna or solarium during the recovery period. It is not allowed to visit swimming pools or open waters. Skin treatment after laser treatment with cosmetic products is not allowed.
Products that contain alcohol and dry the crust are dangerous to the skin. The patient's behavior after laser removal of the accumulation determines the rate of recovery.
