Viral Warts Removal and Molluscum Contagiosum Removal by Laser

Viral warts may appear on the skin after visiting a sauna, swimming pool or similar facility. The virus may enter the body through tiny wounds in the skin if precautions are not followed; e.g. wearing plastic footwear / using foot disinfectant. The disease is contagious; it can spread to other parts of the body or can be transferred to other family members if not cured. We recommend that everyone who has viral warts see a dermatologist, who can make a diagnosis and start a therapy. In the case of viral warts or Molluscum contagisum, laser treatment removes the lesion totally without leaving a scar.

The laser beam selectively binds red hemoglobin pigment and decomposes it. Damaged blood vessels are attacked by the immune system and are absorbed. The cure is based on sealing the blood vessels that nourish the wart. Once this happens, the wart will atrophy.

This procedure cannot be performed when the patient has tanned skin, is pregnant, or in patients with decompensated diabetes, cancer, or other serious conditions.
