Plantar warts are typically treated in the office by gently trimming the lesion without creating pain and application of a chemical agent to burn the lesion. A home program is then begun and 1-2 more offices treatments will generally resolve the warts. If there are too many or they are not responding to topical therapy, the lesions are then excised in the office or out patient surgical setting. Depending on the severity, a LASER may be utilized.
