Wart Removal
Fast, safe, and professional wart removal with expert cryotherapy in Nuneaton
Looking for effective wart removal in Nuneaton? Crowhill Pharmacy offers professional cryotherapy treatments that safely freeze warts for fast, targeted results. Warts are common skin growths caused by the human papillomavirus (HPV). While usually harmless, they can be uncomfortable, unsightly, or persistent. Our experienced team provides personalised assessment and treatment, helping you get clear, healthy skin quickly and conveniently.
What is Cryotherapy Wart Removal?
Cryotherapy is a method of removing warts by applying extreme cold to the affected area. At Crowhill Pharmacy in Nuneaton, our trained pharmacy staff use a controlled cryotherapy wand, typically employing liquid nitrogen or an equivalent cooling agent, to freeze the wart tissue safely.
The freezing process destroys the wart cells, triggering the body’s natural healing response. Most warts require one or two treatments to fully resolve. Cryotherapy is widely recognised for its effectiveness and speed compared to prolonged home remedies, making it a popular choice for those seeking professional wart removal in Nuneaton.
Who Can Benefit from Wart Removal?
Our wart removal service in Nuneaton is suitable for adults and children with:
—> Common warts on hands, fingers, or feet
—> Plantar warts on the soles of the feet that cause discomfort or pain
—> Flat warts on the face, arms, or other areas
—> Warts that have not responded to over-the-counter treatments
—> Anyone looking for a professional, clinic-based treatment rather than extended home therapy
Cryotherapy is generally safe, but certain groups may require additional assessment or referral, including:
—> Individuals with diabetes or poor circulation
—> Those taking immunosuppressive medication
—> People with warts on sensitive areas, such as near the eyes or genitals
—> Anyone uncertain about whether a skin lesion is a wart
Our pharmacy team will discuss your medical history and skin condition to ensure cryotherapy is suitable and safe for you.
What to Expect During Your Appointment
Booking a wart removal appointment in Nuneaton at Crowhill Pharmacy is simple and convenient. Here’s what happens during your visit:
1. Booking: Reserve your appointment by phone on 02476 329806 or via our website.
2. Consultation: On arrival, we review your medical history and examine the wart.
3. Treatment: The area is cleaned and isolated. The cryotherapy wand is applied to the wart for a short, controlled freeze, typically lasting a few seconds. You may feel a brief stinging or burning sensation.
4. Aftercare Instructions: A blister or scab may form within 24–48 hours. Our team will provide guidance on how to care for the area and what to expect as it heals.
5. Follow-Up: Some warts require a second session after 2–3 weeks. We can schedule a follow-up during your visit.
Most patients can return to normal daily activities immediately after treatment, and appointments usually take around 15 minutes.
Aftercare Advice
Proper aftercare is essential for effective healing after cryotherapy:
—> Do not pick or peel the treated area; allow any blister or scab to heal naturally.
—> Keep the area clean and dry. Follow any dressing or cream recommendations provided by our staff.
—> Avoid prolonged soaking in baths or swimming for the first 24 hours if a blister has formed.
—> Monitor for signs of infection, such as spreading redness, pus, or severe pain. Contact the pharmacy or your GP if these occur.
—> Healing may take several weeks, and most warts resolve after one or two treatments.
Our team is always available to answer questions about aftercare and to provide reassurance during the healing process.
