WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW

Verrucae are a type of wart that develop on the sole of the foot. They are usually flatter and less raised than regular warts, but they can be just as painful and embarrassing. Like warts, they are caused by the human papillomavirus (HPV) virus and are contagious. The virus thrives in wet or damp environments, such as swimming pool floors, changing areas and showers.

Our Podiatrists are the experts and can diagnose your verruca instantly and get you on to a SWIFT treatment for verruca and wart treatment today!

AN EFFECTIVE TREATMENT FOR VERRUCA AND WARTS

Are you tired of dealing with embarrassing and annoying verruca that are hard to treat? We have an effective treatment for stubborn verrucae.

Like all warts, verrucae are caused by the human papillomavirus (HPV) virus. Underneath the skin, the wart can have finger-like roots that reach down and grow, making them very difficult to treat effectively from the surface.

Swift is a cutting edge technology. Swift delivers a low dose microwave energy through a specialised probe that targets and effectively treats the underlying HPV virus by simulating a natural immune response in the body. Addressing the root cause, not the symptom.

Swift is exclusively available at Foot Mechanics Milford and Foot Mechanics Rotorua clinic.

Watch a quick overview of a wart treatment using Swift microwave therapy.

Infected verruca (wart) tissue can exist several millimeters below the surface and can be difficult to treat using traditional methods, resulting in either untreated tissue or significant damage.

SWIFT delivers a precise, highly controlled energy dose. As microwaves travel into the tissue, water molecules begin colliding and creating localised heat energy – quickly destroying all infected tissue within a predetermined depth.

In just seconds the treatment is complete, leaving the body to absorb and replace the treated tissue.

Case Study 1

Middle aged female patient with multiple large lesions on the right plantar forefoot and heel for over 10 years.

The pain from walking on the lesions was significantly affecting her daily living activities and exercise. For years she had tried multiple interventions with no success.

After 3 SWIFT treatments, all her verruca lesions had resolved within 11 weeks.

Case Study 2

Middle aged male patient presented with 2 large lesions on left plantar forefoot and single large lesion on right foot. Lesions would regularly build up with overlying hyperkeratosis causing increased pressure.

After 9 years with these persistent plantar warts, it took only 3 SWIFT treatments and all three lesions had resolved.
