Swift Wart Treatment
Professional Wart Removal
Safe and Effective Treatment for Plantar and Foot Warts
Unlike other types of warts, plantar warts are typically quite painful as the pressure from walking and standing forces them to grow into your skin making them very difficult to treat from the surface of the skin. Mountain Podiatry is proud to announce the acquisition of The Swift Wart Treatment System.
This new device has been FDA approved for the treatment of stubborn plantar warts and clinical studies have proven its treatment to be highly effective. The Swift probe delivers low dose microwave energy that targets and effectively treats the underlying HPV virus by stimulating a natural immune response in the body.
Swift protocol involves 3 to 4 treatments, spaced 4 weeks apart. All patients continue on with day-to-day activities immediately following treatment.
Plantar warts; a common and stubborn Viral Infection
“Plantar” means “Of the sole” in Latin. Unlike other types of warts, plantar warts are typically quite painful as the pressure from walking and standing forces them to grow into your skin. Like all warts, Plantar warts are caused by the human papillomavirus (HPV) virus, specifically types 1, 2, 4, 60, and 63. Underneath the skin, the wart can have finger-like roots that reach down and grow, making them very difficult to treat effectively from the surface.
What is Swift?
Swift is a cutting-edge, FDA Cleared technology that has proven to be highly effective in the removal of plantar warts. It delivers low-dose microwave energy through a specialized probe that targets and effectively treats the underlying HPV virus by stimulating a natural immune response in the body. We like to say that we’re addressing the root cause; not the symptom.
What to Expect
Swift protocol involves between 3 and 4 treatments, spaced 4 weeks apart; aligning with the body’s natural immune cycle. Each treatment lasts only 5-10 minutes and is what we call a “sock off – sock on” treatment: Limited debridement, no breaking of the skin, no bandages. No home treatment is required between treatments and patients are able to resume daily activities immediately post-treatment.
How effective is Swift?
The Swift technology treatment feels similar to the pain of a small scratch or injection, lasting only a few seconds before immediately subsiding. Some may experience some soreness after the treatment, but not anything strong enough to impair normal day-to-day activities.​ To see how effective this treatment is view the images below of one of our patients who went from a really terrible wart to clean smooth skin in just a few treatments.
