What Are Warts and Why Do They Occur?
Warts are non-cancerous skin growths caused by certain strains of the human papillomavirus (HPV). They can appear as small, grainy bumps and are often rough to the touch. Warts are contagious, meaning they can spread through
direct skin contact or via contaminated surfaces.
These growths can develop on any part of the body, including:
- Hands
- Feet (plantar warts)
- Face
- Knees and elbows
- Genital area
- Around fingernails and toenails
Warts are more common in children and teens, but can affect people of all ages. While most warts are harmless, they can be painful, unsightly, or persistent.

Medical Dermatology

Types of Warts We Treat
At The Skin Clinic, we treat all major types of warts, including:
- Common Warts Usually found on fingers and hands, these appear as rough, raised bumps and may have black pinpoints caused by clotted blood vessels.
- Plantar Warts These occur on the soles of the feet, often feeling like small pebbles. They can be painful when walking, especially in children and athletes.
- Flat Warts: Often found on the face, neck, and legs, these are smaller and smoother than other types and tend to grow in large numbers. Each type requires a tailored approach depending on location, size, and skin sensitivity.
Wart Treatments for Children & Adults
Warts can affect children as frequently as adults. While many warts resolve on their own, others persist for months or years and may require medical treatment. At The Skin Clinic, wart removal is performed with minimal discomfort and maximum care, ensuring children and adults feel comfortable and safe.
Advanced Wart Removal Treatments Available in Karachi
Our clinic offers a range of dermatologically approved treatment options to remove warts safely. After a detailed consultation, Dr. Khilji may recommend one or more of the following:
- Cryotherapy: Freezing the wart using liquid nitrogen to destroy the tissue
- Laser Treatment: Precise targeting of wart tissue and blood supply for removal
- Chemical Peels: Used on flat or stubborn warts for controlled exfoliation
- Cantharidin Application: Causes blistering beneath the wart to lift it off naturally
- Minor Surgical Procedures: For deep or resistant wart growths
Please note That Treatment plans are only recommended after an in-depth consultation and thorough examination. Depending on the type of wart, its location, and your medical history, blood tests or diagnostic procedures may be recommended before treatment.

Are warts contagious?
Yes, they can spread through skin-to-skin contact or shared surfaces like gym floors or towels.
Can warts go away on their own?
Some warts disappear over time, but others can persist and grow. Treatment helps remove them more quickly and prevents the disease from spreading.
Does wart removal hurt?
Most treatments are performed in a controlled, sterile environment to minimize discomfort and ensure your comfort and safety.
Will there be scarring after treatment?
Scarring is rare, especially with expert care. We provide detailed aftercare instructions to minimize the risk of complications and promote optimal healing.
