What is Swift Pro?
Swift Pro is a new technology that has been developed in the UK to treat verruca(s) and wart(s) which are caused by the human papilloma virus (HPV). Swift Pro uses microwave energy which is delivered through a special probe applied to the skin to treat the affected tissue.
Swift Pro has approximately an 86% success rate of helping to clear up your stubborn verruca(s) and wart(s)
How does Swift Pro Work?
The infected tissue can exist several millimetres below the surface and can be difficult to treat.
Swift Pro delivers a precise and highly controlled energy dose. As microwave energy travels into the tissue, water molecules begin to collide which creates a localised heat energy.
In just seconds the treatment is complete and the healing cascade begins immediately. Treated tissue is quickly replaced, repaired and regenerated.
What should I expect at my appointment
Alternative verruca and wart treatments will be discussed at your first appointment. A consent form will also be completed at your first appointment. Photographs of your verruca(s)/wart(s) may also be taken prior to treatment with your consent or measurements of the verruca(s)/wart(s) may be taken.
Hard skin from the verruca(s)/wart(s) may be removed before or after treatment. The Swift Pro probe is place directly over the verruca/wart for 2 seconds, this will be carried out 5 times. During treatment you may feel a sharp sensation, this discomfort should quickly subside.
How many treatments do I need?
It is recommended to have 3-4 treatments, 4 weeks apart, after the last treatment a follow up review appointment will be made for 12 weeks, this is the allow the immune response to work. At the review appointment it will be discussed if the verruca(s)/wart(s) have cleared up or whether any further treatment is needed.
