Dry Needling for Verruca’s in Peterborough
Dry Needling for Verruca’s at The Fane Clinic
What is Dry Needling for Verruca’s?
Dry needling is a very effective minor surgical procedure that involves the use of a very fine, sterile needle to puncture the verruca several times under local anesthetic. The purpose of this is to disrupt each individual papillae in the veruca in order to initiate an immune response so that the body can recognise and destroy the virus.
One huge advantage of dry needling over other treatments is that usually, only one session of treatment is needed.
The success rate of dry needling to treat verruca’s is very high compared to other treatment methods. Whilst freezing (Cryo-Surgery) and caustic agents (Bazuka) have a very low success rate – somewhere in the region of 15%, dry needling has a proven success rate of around 73%.
Who Will Carry Dry Needling for Verruca’s At The Fane Clinic?
