What is a Plantar Wart?

A plantar wart is a type of wart that grows on the sole of the foot. It is caused by a virus and can appear as a small, fleshy bump or a rough, hardened area. Plantar warts can be painful and may feel like a stone in your shoe. They usually have tiny black dots in the centre and can be spread to other parts of the foot or to other people.

What is SWIFT Microwave Therapy?

Swift Microwave Therapy is a non-invasive, cutting-edge treatment method specifically designed to eliminate warts. It works by delivering microwave energy to the affected area, which targets and destroys the underlying viral cells responsible for wart growth. The treatment is highly effective, with most patients experiencing complete wart removal within 3-4 sessions. Swift Microwave Therapy is also fast, with each session lasting only a few minutes, and requires no downtime or recovery period. Overall, Swift Microwave Therapy is a safe and efficient treatment option that offers a faster and more convenient solution compared to traditional wart removal techniques.

How Does it Work?

In simple terms, because warts are stubborn and prone to evading the immune system, SWIFT works by activating the body's natural defence system to fight the virus and resolve the wart.

Swift Microwave Therapy vs. Traditional Treatments

Swift Microwave Therapy has several advantages and unique features that make it an attractive option for those seeking wart removal treatment.

These include:

Fast and efficient: Swift Microwave Therapy offers a faster and more efficient solution compared to traditional wart removal techniques. Most patients experience complete wart removal within 3-4 sessions, with each session lasting only a few minutes.

Non-invasive: The treatment is non-invasive, meaning it does not require any incisions or injections. This makes it a more comfortable and less intimidating option for patients.

Safe and effective: Swift Microwave Therapy is a safe and effective treatment option, with a success rate of over 75%. It also has minimal side effects, with most patients experiencing only mild discomfort during the treatment.

Minimal downtime: The treatment requires no downtime or recovery period, meaning patients can resume their normal activities immediately after each session.

Tailored treatment: Each Swift Microwave Therapy session is tailored to the patient's specific needs, ensuring optimal results.

Traditional wart treatments include cryotherapy, which involves freezing the wart with liquid nitrogen, and topical treatments such as salicylic acid or cantharidin. While these treatments can be effective in removing warts, they also have several potential drawbacks and limitations.

Cryotherapy can be painful and may require multiple treatments to completely remove the wart. It can also cause blistering and scarring, and may not be effective for larger or deeper warts. Topical treatments can also be effective, but they require consistent and long-term use, which can be inconvenient for some patients. They may also cause skin irritation or allergic reactions in some individuals. In addition, both cryotherapy and topical treatments may not be suitable for certain individuals, such as those with diabetes or poor circulation, due to the risk of complications.

Compared to these traditional wart treatments, Swift Microwave Therapy offers several advantages, including a faster treatment time, minimal side effects, and a higher success rate. It is also a suitable treatment option for individuals who may not be eligible for other types of wart removal treatments.

Swift Microwave Cost Considerations

SWIFT Microwave therapy cost:

Initial Consultation $160 (Consultation code 004) + $117 (SWIFT code 541) = $277

Follow-up Consultation $120 (Consultation code 010) + $117 (SWIFT code 541) = $237

The treatment protocol for SWIFT treatment is 3-4 treatments, 4 weeks apart and then a follow-up at 12 weeks. At this time, we suspect the lesion will be resolved. Should you require another treatment after this, we only charge a brief consult at $80 each, however we find this is rarely required.
