TREATMENT
1- 3 treatments at 1-2 weekly intervals (its effectiveness is 96% of 1-3 treatments)
VerruTop is an new revelation in wart treatment in the UK & proven very successful. Unlike Cryotherapy or other chemical treatments, VerruTop does not act by freezing or Caustic burning of the tissue. Instead it denatures the viral protein and desiccates the wart tissue, which then falls off the skin, leaving intact skin underneath
Treatment is normally quick and painless although some children may experience a temporary discomfort, stinging to slight tenderness.
After the treatment your child will be able carry on with your day as normal.
