*Most likely your dermatologist will use the cryotherapy method!.
Cryotherapy for warts: Cryotherapy involves freezing a wart using a very cold substance (usually liquid nitrogen)!. Cryotherapy is a standard treatment for warts and can be done in a health professional's office!. The liquid nitrogen application usually takes less than a minute!.
?Most warts require 1 to 4 treatments, with 1 to 3 weeks between each treatment!.
?Pain from cryotherapy can last up to 3 days!. Healing is generally quick (7 to 14 days) with little or no scarring!.
?Multiple treatments may be needed to get rid of the wart!.
?Effective about 35% to 65% of the time!.
?No more effective than salicylic acid!.
One small study has indicated that cryotherapy is not as effective as using tape over the wart!.

*This is a link for a home treatment!.
Tape occlusion is an inexpensive method of wart removal that involves covering the wart with tape!. It is often called the "duct tape" method!.
?Cut a piece of adhesive tape as close to the size of the wart as possible!.
?Leave the tape in place for 6 days!. If the tape falls off, put on a new piece!.
?After 6 days, remove the tape and soak the area in water!. Then gently rub the wart surface down with an emery board or pumice stone!. Leave the tape off overnight!.
?Repeat this process until the wart is gone, but not longer than 2 months!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
