Warts

Fast, effective treatment — no guesswork.

Overview

Warts are benign skin growths caused by the human papillomavirus (HPV). They can appear on the hands, feet, face, or genitals and are highly contagious through direct contact. While some warts resolve on their own, many persist for years without treatment. Our dermatologists evaluate your wart type and location and prescribe a targeted at-home treatment plan.

Common Questions

FAQs

How long does wart treatment take?

Most warts respond to topical treatment within 4–12 weeks of consistent use. Stubborn or deep warts may take longer — your dermatologist will adjust the plan as needed.

Can warts spread to other people?

Yes — HPV is contagious through skin-to-skin contact. Treating promptly and following our hygiene guidelines reduces the risk of spreading.
