Laser treatment for warts requires careful preparation. Direct sunlight should be avoided 7 days before the planned procedure, which is especially important in summer. A high SPF sunscreen should be applied to the problem area where the scar is located. If you decide to have a laser wart removed, under no circumstances should you come in contact with chemicals on the eve of the session.

The essence of the examination is a thorough study of the epithelial neoplasm and the selection of the intensity of the effect on foreign cells.

Local anesthesia is almost always used when the laser burns the warts. High temperatures are used to burn the mole.

By performing cauterization of the warts and acting on the damaged tissue, the laser does not affect the healthy areas of the epidermis. Due to the immediate blockage of all local capillaries, the risk of bleeding is prevented.

Complete disappearance of the papilloma can be observed 2 weeks after the coagulation session.

  • u lagur;
  • exposed to sunlight;
  • damage of various kinds was done;
  • processed with cosmetics.

There is no need to worry about a wound or scar at the treatment site.

As for the likelihood of recurrences, they occur quite rarely - this can be achieved by exposing the beam directly to the root of the neoplasm. Laser wart removal also rules out the possibility of infection, as the procedure is performed with non-contact exposure.
