Comprehensive Wart Removal Treatment With Laser Surgery at Yashoda Hospital

Warts are non-cancerous skin growths caused by the Human Papillomavirus (HPV). These are highly infectious and can be observed on hands, feet, face, and genitals. Warts cause a lot of discomfort and cosmetic problems, depending on their location on the body. Laser wart removal is a modern and effective technique that uses light beams to get rid of warts by targeting abnormal tissue. Laser wart removal is generally of two types: ablative lasers such as CO2 and Erbium: YAG (ER: YAG) that work by vaporizing the wart tissue from the surface, thus creating a wound that heals itself in one or two weeks. Ablative laser wart removal generally requires fewer sessions and removes the warts quickly. A non-ablative laser is another technique, such as a pulsed-dye laser (Vbeam) and a neodymium-doped yttrium aluminium garnet (Nd: YAG) laser. This technique works by targeting the blood vessels in the wart or deeper layers of tissue that cause the wart to dry up and fall without creating any types of wounds. The non-ablative laser wart removal technique requires multiple sessions, but is known for its minimal recovery time.

The laser wart removal technique is a preferred method to treat warts, especially in sensitive areas, due to its reduced risk of scarring, nerve damage, or disfigurement in comparison to traditional techniques like cryotherapy, surgical excision, or topical treatments. Experts turn to the laser wart removal technique if other therapies fail to remove warts. Apart from warts caused by the Human papillomavirus, the laser wart removal includes removal of plantar warts on feet, Flat warts that appear on the face or hands, and genital warts in sensitive areas of the body.

• Deeply embedded plantar warts on the soles of the feet can grow deep into the skin. These are very hard to remove with traditional techniques. The accuracy of laser treatment in targeting these warts makes it a preferred way of treatment.
• If the warts are widespread and high in number, laser therapy is known for treating all of them at once and in a very effective manner.
• If the warts are in sensitive locations, the high accuracy of the laser is extremely useful in removing warts from delicate areas of the body, like the face, hands, or fingernails. Other traditional methods might cause scarring in this situation. Laser wart removal is also used in treating difficult-to-reach genital warts.
• If warts occur in patients with conditions that affect and decrease immunity in the body, like HIV or cancer. These patients then require highly advanced and minimally invasive aggressive techniques, like laser wart removal.
• Warts during pregnancy require treatment based on timing, and accuracy should be carried out after careful assessment and discussion with a doctor.

Factors that Influence Laser Wart Removal Surgery Cost

Types of laser wart removal surgery techniques

Different types of laser wart removal techniques use focused light energy to destroy the wart tissue. The most common techniques used are Ablative and Non-ablative methods, and the choice among these two depends on the characteristics of the wart and its location on the body.
Ablative lasers vaporize the wart tissue and create an open wound. Anesthesia is required, and recovery usually happens within 1-2 weeks. It uses two types of lasers that are

• Carbon dioxide (CO2) laser, a laser that is known to emit an infrared beam, which is absorbed strongly by water in skin cells. Thus causing wart tissue to vaporize layer by layer. It is a very accurate and effective tool useful for the treatment of stubborn warts.
• Erbium: YAG (ER: YAG), similarly to the carbon dioxide laser, the ER: YAG laser uses water absorption to vaporize wart tissue and causes less damage to surrounding skin.Erbium: YAG (ER: YAG) is known for its better healing and minimal scarring.
• Non-ablative lasers destroy the wart’s blood supply from inside without creating an open wound, which results in less recovery time and minimal amount of scarring. It uses two types of lasers that are
• Pulsed dye laser (PDL) makes use of a concentrated yellow light to target and destroy tiny blood vessels that feed nutrients to the wart and help it grow. Without a blood supply, the wart dries and falls off. It is a common method used for treatment in cosmetically sensitive areas.
• Neodymium-doped yttrium aluminium garnet (Nd: YAG) laser makes use of near-infrared light to target blood vessels deeper than the pulsed dye laser (PDL) method. This makes it useful for treating warts on the hands and feet of children.
• Other techniques include the excimer laser, which uses ultraviolet B (UVB) light to initiate an immune response and fight the human papilloma virus. It is used for treating localized warts.
• Combination therapy is also a treatment method, where the laser wart removal technique is used in combination with other techniques like salicylic acid or cryotherapy.
