VERRUCA TREATMENT




Verrucae are caused by the HPV virus and can become painful, especially on weight-bearing areas. At ClearStep, we offer targeted, effective treatments — including silver nitrate and Verrutop® — to remove verrucae safely and prevent them from spreading.

What’s Included / Benefits?

We offer effective verruca treatments designed to reduce discomfort and clear the infection using medicated or specialist therapy.


Your appointment may include:

  • Full Verruca Assessment – Identifying size, depth, and severity.

  • Debridement – Gently reducing hardened skin to improve treatment success.

  • Targeted Treatment Application – Options such as acids, cryotherapy, or needling (if offered).

  • Home Care Guidance – Steps to support healing and prevent recurrence.

  • Follow-Up Plan – Monitoring progress and adjusting treatment where needed.


Before treatment, avoid using over-the-counter acids for 48 hours so your skin isn’t irritated.


Q: How do I know it’s a verruca?
They usually have a rough, cauliflower-like texture with small black dots.


Q: Are verrucae contagious?
Yes — especially in damp areas like pools and changing rooms.


Q: How many sessions will I need?
Most verrucae require multiple treatments depending on severity.
