Genital warts can be removed with an electric scalpel using local anesthesia, by using liquid nitrogen, which destroys them by freezing (cryotherapy), or by using laser light.
Condyloma removal surgery
When medication is ineffective, wart removal is necessary. The surgical technique will depend on the specialist's recommendation.
Surgical excision: This involves the surgical removal of warts by cutting or electrocoagulation. It is performed under local or general anesthesia, and discomfort is usually felt after the procedure.
Cryotherapy: Liquid nitrogen is used to freeze and destroy the wart. A blister forms around the wart, and it eventually falls off, revealing healthy skin underneath.
Laser treatment for warts: The warts are burned off using a beam of light. This procedure is usually reserved for cases where the warts are widespread and difficult to treat.
This approach, which uses an intense beam of light, can be expensive and is generally reserved for extensive and difficult-to-treat warts. Side effects may include scarring and pain.
