Wart Removal
Wart removal is a medical procedure used to eliminate warts, non-cancerous skin growths caused by the human papillomavirus (HPV). Depending on the size, location and number of warts, various techniques such as cryotherapy using nitrogen, electrocautery or laser surgery may be employed. The goal is to destroy the wart while minimizing damage to surrounding healthy tissue.
In France:
Wart removal in France is typically carried out through cryotherapy, where a freezing agent such as liquid nitrogen is used to destroy the wart tissue. The cost for this procedure can range from 30 to 150 euros depending on the location and size of the wart.
Additional:
Waiting times for wart removal appointments in France can vary from 1 to 3 weeks. In addition, some dermatologists may offer alternative treatments like laser therapy or surgical excision for more persistent warts at additional costs.
