Warts

Overview
Interested in removing warts? Discover what causes warts and the best option for you to eliminate them.
Ever wonder where warts come from? You don’t get them from touching frogs, but they are caused by a viral infection in the top layer of the skin. These common skin growths are usually skin-colored and feel rough to the touch. They can be dark, flat, or smooth. The appearance of a wart depends on where it is growing and which type of virus is causing it. Warts can appear anywhere on the body, but the most common places are the hands and feet. Warts aren’t usually cancerous but if they appear in the genital area, they can spread from person to person and in females (and males) have led to cancerous growths, so they are worth treating.
Dr. Joel Schlessinger, a board-certified dermatologist at Schlessinger MD in Omaha, can assess your skincare concerns and provide treatment options that can help bring your warts under control in most cases. He has the medical background to look at all aspects of this condition and provide effective solutions that can help remedy the problem.
Patient Reviews
I had an appointment there to remove a wart off my face. they called me a day before and said Dr Schlessinger won’t be in office and one of the PAs will see me (which sounded strange to me. I made an appointment with Dr Schlessinger and he won’t be there?!!). Anyway, My visit with PA went very well. The staffs, nurses and the PA all were super nice. The PA looked at all the warts and explained thoroughly about the treatment which was cutting them off from my face. She cut them off very fast using local anesthesia and I didn’t feel anything. I am normally terrified of needles but they really did a perfect job.
