Wart Removal
Warts are small, hard, non-cancerous growths caused by the Human Papillomavirus (HPV). While harmless, they can be unsightly, contagious, and sometimes painful. At Dermea Clinic, we offer safe, effective, and dermatologist-supervised wart removal treatments using FDA-approved technology.
Our Approach
Our goal is not only to remove existing warts but also to reduce recurrence by addressing underlying causes and providing comprehensive aftercare. Each treatment plan is tailored based on the wart type, size, and location to ensure safe, scar-free results.

Step 2: During Treatment

- Topical treatments – Medical-grade solutions for specific wart types.
- Procedure performed under sterile, pain-minimized conditions.
Step 3: Post-Treatment Care
