Warts

Warts are non-cancerous skin-colored growths caused by a virus in the top layer of the skin. Warts may appear as rough, surfaced, thickened lesions or on occasion are flat and smooth. Warts can be present singly or in a cluster (Mosaic warts) such as around finger nails or soles of feet.

There are several different treatments available for warts, both at home and in-office. Salicylic acid is commonly used, but Clarkston Derm can also offer safe, effective in-office treatments with better results.
