Laser Wart Removal

A wart on your foot or ankle will prove unsightly and uncomfortable.  It is a mistake to ignore a wart, assuming it will improve on its own.  Warts are problematic as they redirect blood supply and expand across the foot.  Some warts expand in size and quantity to the point that they spread across the entirety of the bottom of the foot, making it painful to engage in athletic activity or even walk.  West Coast Foot And Ankle Center in La Quinta, CA, Palm Springs, CA and Rancho Mirage, CA is here to help with treatment. 

Though medication, freezing compounds and acid combined with subsequent scraping has the potential to work, additional treatment modalities will also be considered.  As an example, the use of a high-powered laser might be necessary to destroy the warts on your foot.  It might only take a single treatment with a long-pulse laser to eliminate the wort on your foot.  This unique laser uses a specific wavelength that ensures your skin remains unscathed.  The wavelength zeroes in on hemoglobin, using the blood supply below the skin toward the bottom of the wart to attack the virus and eliminate the blood supply to the wart.  Meet with our foot and ankle experts as soon as possible so we can perform a thorough evaluation of your wart(s) and identify the optimal treatment modality.
