Swift® offers a fast, precise verrucas treatment using microwave energy. Each session takes seconds, targeting lesions effectively while minimising damage to surrounding skin.
Developed in the UK, Swift® is a licenced microwave therapy used by podiatrists and dermatologists to treat verrucas and other skin lesions. A specialised probe delivers controlled microwave energy to destroy infected tissue beneath the skin’s surface.
Most patients describe discomfort as brief, similar to a scratch or injection (lasting 2–3 seconds). Your clinician may gently prepare the area beforehand to reduce discomfort. Pain levels vary, but many resume daily activities immediately.
The treated area might feel tender temporarily, but this rarely interferes with normal routines. Avoid picking the area to support healing.
This depends on your response. Some require 1–2 sessions, spaced 14 days to a month apart. Your podiatrist will tailor the verrucas treatment plan to your needs.
Most people with verrucas are eligible. Your clinician will assess your medical history and lesion type to confirm suitability.
Always consult a registered podiatrist to discuss your verrucas treatment options.
Case Studies
Microwaves heat water molecules in the infected tissue, generating localised heat.
Energy destroys infected cells at a controlled depth, avoiding harm to healthy skin.
The body begins repairing the area immediately, replacing treated tissue with healthy skin.
