SWIFT MICROWAVE THERAPY
Finally, a solution for stubborn warts and verruca
How does the Swift Microwave Treatment work?
Unlike most treatments that are designed to destroy the skin, the Swift Treatment uses thermal energy to heat the skin and produce an immune response. The body’s immune system is very sensitive to heat and achieving a temperature between 41-43C (known as the ‘hyperthermia’ zone) produces a stronger effect, helping the body naturally clear the virus which causes warts and verrucae.
I’ve tried other verruca treatments what makes Swift Treatment different?
The biggest benefit of the Swift Treatment is the high chance of success. Warts and Verruca are notoriously difficult to treat, and many patients have suffered with the condition for years. Swift has shown in clinical studies to be around 83% effective – meaning that most patients successfully get rid of their warts and verruca.
More than 100,000 people have benefited from this treatment since it was first launched in 2017 and it is quickly becoming the gold standard treatment for warts and verruca globally.
Swift is also quick – the treatment is applied via repeated energy doses, usually only a few seconds in duration.
There is no specific after-care required, no dressings and most patients can return to their normal daily activities immediately post-treatment.
How much will my Swift Verruca Treatment cost?
The Price for Swift procedures can vary on the individual and the number of treatments required. Many Swift patients have long-standing and extensive verruca lesions, while some patients just have small, singular lesions. Our expert Podiatrists will be able to provide guidance on what to expect, how many treatments may be required and the cost during the first consultation. T
There is an 83% success rate of clearing a verruca if 3 treatments are carried out, 1 month apart, with a review session 12 weeks later. As every person is different, some patients may require further treatment at the 12-week mark.
Does Swift Microwave Therapy hurt?
Like most treatments for warts and verruca, there is pain at the point of treatment with Swift Microwave Therapy. The pain is usually very brief and felt for just a second or two and when the treatment stops, the pain stops. It is rare for the pain to continue post-treatment and most patients can continue with their day as normal.
Can anybody have Swift Microwave Therapy?
If you have a metal implant at the site of the lesion (verruca), have a pacemaker or suffer neuropathy (reduced sensation/feeling in the feet) you may not be able to avail of the treatment. Feel free to contact us if you have any questions.
