Warts are not just skin growths, they are actually caused by a virus. Find out more and how to properly get rid of them once and for all.
What are Warts?

Warts are benign tumors that from in the deep layers of your skin. They are caused by a virus called the Human Papilloma Virus or HPV. Warts are really just extra skin cells - the virus causes a problem in your skin where too many cells for that area are made and the result is the mosaic like bump that you see as a wart.

How Do You Get Warts?

Believe it or not, warts are contagious! Yes, you can catch them from your friend that has warts and you can also catch them from inanimate objects. So if you share personal items like razors, towels, shoes etc... the HPV virus can be lurking on them waiting to get under your skin and give you warts!

Why Wart Treatments are not Working for You

What are warts remedies and why don't they work? Some common remedies include freezing, surgery to remove the wart, laser surgery, burning the wart with salicylic acid and other methods that actually remove the wart itself. You may even have tried some of these yourself, only to find that your warts return weeks or months later.

Why don't These Treatments Work?

Unfortunately, the HPV virus can lodge in the deepest layers of your skin and if you don't remove all the skin with the virus, it will just keep growing and eventually cause more warts.

How You can Get Rid of Warts Once and for all

The best way to get rid of warts is to attack the virus itself. After all, what are warts if not just a simple viral infection?
