Summary

Warts may be common, but when they linger, cause discomfort, or begin to spread, they quickly become more than just a minor skin issue. If you're in Calgary and dealing with a stubborn wart, you're not alone—and you don’t have to keep battling it on your own.

At Calgary Vein and Laser, our Wart Clinic offers medically guided, effective wart treatment solutions tailored to your skin and condition. If over-the-counter remedies haven’t worked, it’s time to consider expert care. But how long does wart removal actually take? The answer depends on a few key factors.

What Affects Wart Removal Time?

Wart removal isn't one-size-fits-all. The time it takes to fully remove a wart depends on several factors:

  • Type of wart (common, plantar, flat, etc.)
  • Location on the body
  • Size and depth of the wart
  • How long it’s been present
  • Your immune response
  • Previous treatment attempts

Some small warts may respond to treatment in just a few sessions, while others—especially deep plantar warts or those that have resisted other treatments—may take several visits to resolve completely.

How Long Until I See Results?

Most patients start noticing improvement within the first few treatments. For many, complete wart removal can take between 2 to 6 sessions, spaced a few weeks apart.

While there’s no instant fix, professional treatment significantly reduces the chances of the wart coming back—and helps clear the virus at the source, not just the surface. Our team works with you to monitor progress and adjust your plan as needed to get the best results in the shortest time possible.

Proven Wart Treatment Options Available in Calgary

At Calgary Vein and Laser, we offer the most effective clinical wart removal methods, all supervised by trained medical professionals. These include:

Cryotherapy

  • This freezing technique uses liquid nitrogen to destroy wart tissue at the root. It’s quick, safe, and suitable for most common and plantar warts.

Topical Prescription Medications

  • We may recommend advanced topical treatments that stimulate your immune system to fight the virus internally—something drugstore options can’t do.

Laser Therapy

  • Ideal for stubborn or recurring warts, laser treatment targets the blood supply feeding the wart, cutting it off and helping the body clear the infection.

Combination Therapy

  • For more persistent cases, we often combine treatments to target the wart from multiple angles. This approach helps speed up healing and reduces recurrence.
