What Are Warts?
Warts are small, hard and brown to black growths on our skin that appear most commonly on our hands, feet and face. They occur due to Human Papilloma Virus (HPV) attack and can also affect other body areas. Warts are usually asymptomatic but may occasionally cause pain and bleeding. They may not heal by themselves and therefore require medical intervention.
What Causes Warts?
Warts may appear due to an infection and proliferation of different strains of Human Papilloma Virus (HPV) in our skin. The various virus strains result in wart growth in different body areas.
However, everyone infected by HPV does not develop warts due to the difference in every individual’s immune response. People with weak immunity like those on immunosuppressants or suffering from critical illnesses have more chances of developing warts. Wart growth may occur on the genitalia in sexually transmitted cases.

Warts are benign skin growths caused by a viral infection that are not dangerous. However, they may grow in size and recur, occasionally affecting your skin’s appearance and daily functionality adversely.
A wart usually looks like a small, rugged, brown skin growth with an uneven surface and a few millimetres in size.
Anyone 18 or above can opt for advanced aesthetic wart removal treatment at Oliva. However, pregnant and lactating women and critically-ill patients should avoid undergoing it.
No, the wart removal procedure at Oliva is not painful as your dermatologist will apply a numbing cream to the target area before the treatment. Occasionally, they may administer local anaesthetic injections to alleviate any discomfort during the procedure.
Usually, dermatologists at Oliva recommend a single session for wart removal and a follow-up appointment after 1-2 weeks. However, the exact number of sessions you need depends on your wart size, location and type.
Wart treatment’s side effects usually involve downtime of 7-10 days and post-procedure pigmentation. However, dermatologists at Oliva provide post-care support to minimise these side effects.
Warts may rarely recur if the viral infection causing it is persisting.
