Papilloma removal

Papilloma removal in Kyiv

A papilloma is a benign skin growth originating from squamous epithelium. Papillomas usually appear as wart-like thickenings on a thin stalk, pinkish or brownish in color, with an elastic consistency. The size of papillomas ranges from 1 to 8 mm. One of the main causes of papilloma formation is the human papillomavirus (HPV). Papillomas are of viral origin and can be transmitted sexually or through household contact from one person to another. Papillomas typically appear when the immune system is weakened — after prolonged medication therapy, severe stress, as well as during pregnancy and in old age. Emerging on the skin surface, papillomas grow slowly, but under unfavorable conditions they can rapidly increase in both size and quantity. When damaged, the base of the papilloma becomes inflamed.

Papillomas are removed to prevent trauma and infection, and in some cases — for aesthetic reasons. If papillomas appear and begin to spread, a consultation with a dermatologist to decide on removal is essential. Before starting the removal process, the dermatologist carefully examines the patient’s skin. If the lesion is identified as a papilloma, and it is not inflamed or damaged, the specialist proceeds with the removal procedure.

Methods of wart and papilloma removal

There are several ways to treat papillomas, but the most common and effective are laser removal and radio wave surgery. Unlike surgical excision, both methods leave no scars or marks on the patient’s skin.

Both techniques are based on tissue coagulation at high temperature. With laser removal, energy is delivered by a fine laser beam and absorbed by the surface layer of the papilloma, which simply evaporates. There is no bleeding, and the surrounding healthy tissue remains unaffected.

During radio wave removal, energy is delivered to the tissue by high-frequency radio waves, resulting in coagulation. The use of radio wave surgery allows for highly precise intervention, so that healthy tissue remains intact.

Papilloma removal with the Surgitron device

Removal of papillomas from the face, neck, and other areas using the Surgitron device is the most effective, painless, and safe radio wave method of removing various skin lesions. The Surgitron device sterilizes the skin and affects only the cells that need to be removed, leaving no scars or marks. Radio wave intervention prevents heavy bleeding, swelling, and complications. The healing and recovery process is very fast.

Using the Surgitron device at the Oxford Medical clinic, the following are successfully removed:

  • papillomas;

  • dermatofibromas;

  • hemangiomas;

  • milia;

  • nevi;

  • warts;

  • other skin lesions.

How the procedure is performed

If necessary, local anesthesia (a pain-relieving injection) is administered before the procedure. During the procedure, a radio wave incision is made using the Surgitron device. With the help of a special tungsten wire — the main working element of the device — papillomas and warts are quickly removed in a single motion.

The procedure lasts from 10 to 20 minutes. The cost of papilloma removal generally depends on the number and size of the papillomas. Removal using the Surgitron device is the most advanced, fast, and affordable method.

FAQ

How long does a papilloma take to heal after removal?

The recovery period depends on the location of the papilloma, its size, and the removal method.

How should I treat the skin after papilloma removal?

To speed up wound healing after papilloma removal, antiseptic and epithelializing agents are used. They should be applied only as prescribed by a doctor.

What tests are done when removing papillomas?

The removed tissue may be sent for histological examination.

Which doctor performs papilloma removal?

Papillomas and other small benign skin lesions are removed by a dermatologist or a surgeon.

Which papillomas must be removed?

Papillomas and condylomas (which form in the anogenital area) that are large or located in areas prone to frequent trauma must be removed. This is necessary to prevent their growth, spread of infection to nearby tissues, and infection of wounds if damaged.

Ростислав 13.01.2026
Звернувся з дитиною після тривалих шлункових проблем. Лікарка швидко зорієнтувалася в ситуації, описала можливі причини та запропонувала план обстежень без зайвих процедур. Ірина Всеволодівна вміє знайти контакт з дітьми, пояснює все так, щоб усе стало зрозумілим навіть батькам без медичного досвіду. Приємне враження. Дякую
