Here at Walsh Podiatry we are pleased to announce a brand-new treatment option for those pesky verrucae! Due to the viral nature of a verruca, they can be exceedingly difficult to treat and get rid of. The varying treatments we use all aim to try and encourage a response from your body’s immune system by targeting the virus in different ways. 

Verrutop® is a new acid treatment which when applied to the skin creates a chemical reaction that aims to dehydrate and break down the proteins within the verruca virus. Unlike many other verrucae treatments, Verrutop® is generally painless and once the treatment has been applied and has dried it allows you to carry on with your day to day activities with no interruption. After application, you will notice the area change colour, during this time we hope that the virus becomes dehydrated enough that the verruca detaches itself. As with all verrucae treatments there is no guarantee for success however recent results and studies for Verrutop® have been very promising.

If you have verrucae and are interested in Verrutop® as a treatment option or have any further questions, please give us a call on 0121 749 6313 and we can book you in with one of our HCPC registered Podiatrists.
