Verruca Pen

The Verruca Pen uses plasma technology, to minimise and eliminate verrucae and warts. This means that the Verruca Pen creates energy which ionises atmospheric gases upon contact, creating high energy plasma. This plasma is then delivered in a concentrated arc using a sterile microprobe. The delivery of the concentrated plasma onto the skin destroys the affected epidermal tissue by heating, fragmentation and vapourisation causing trauma to the skin cells and stimulating the body’s immune response.

Unlike other alternative verrucae treatments (like Salicylic Acid and Silver Nitrate) the plasma technology of the Verruca Pen allows for extreme precision, ensuring that only the verrucae tissue is sublimated, leaving any uninvolved tissue unaffected and not causing any side effects. This is particularly effective when working on mosaic verrucae.

One of the best things about plasma technology as an alternative verrucae treatment is that it is virtually pain free. The ergonomic design of the Verruca Pen is comfortable to hold, conveniently cordless, and perhaps most importantly not intimidating or invasive to patients (especially important when treating children). With the precision of the microprobe the verrucae can be targeted and removed with only a minimal amount of discomfort reported by some patients, as the problem area becomes more tender with the disappearance of the verrucae or wart.

Treating verrucae and warts with the Verruca Pen is also a cost effective option, that doesn’t require patients to visit the clinic too regularly. Patients undergoing treatment with our verrucae removal pen only need to return to the clinic once a month (depending on the severity of the case). There is also usually no need at all for dressings after the Verruca Pen treatment. The verrucae treatment pen will automatically cauterise any bleeds, and there is no need to keep the area away from water or under any other special conditions, which can be a convenient and attractive benefit for patients.
