Wart Removal in Colorado Springs, Pueblo & Trinidad, CO
Warts are skin growths caused by certain strains of the human papillomavirus (HPV). They can appear on the hands, feet, face, or other parts of the body and are often rough in texture. While warts are usually harmless, they can be aesthetically displeasing, spread to other areas, or cause discomfort, especially if they develop on the feet or hands. Many people try over-the-counter remedies first, but stubborn or recurring warts often require professional treatment.

At Skin Cancer and Dermatology Center, with offices in Colorado Springs, Pueblo, and Trinidad, our dermatology team provides safe and effective wart removal options. Because warts are caused by a virus, they can be difficult to treat without medical care. Our providers take the time to evaluate your skin and recommend the best option for lasting results.
Wart Removal Treatments We Offer
There isn’t one “right” way to treat warts, which is why our dermatologists offer several proven methods. Depending on the type, size, and location of your wart, your provider may suggest:
- Cryotherapy – Freezing the wart with liquid nitrogen to destroy the affected tissue.
- Prescription Medications – Topical treatments that help the skin shed infected cells.
- Surgical Removal – Carefully removing larger or resistant warts under local anesthesia.
- Laser Therapy – Using focused light to shrink stubborn warts and reduce recurrence.
Our goal is to provide treatment that clears the wart while minimizing discomfort and preventing it from coming back.
When to See a Dermatologist for Wart Removal
You don’t have to live with warts that are painful, spreading, or resistant to over-the-counter remedies. It’s especially important to see a dermatologist if:
- Warts interfere with activity or cause pain.
- Warts spread rapidly or appear in multiple areas.
- You have diabetes, poor circulation, or a weakened immune system.
- You’re unsure whether a growth is a wart or another type of skin lesion.
Our providers can evaluate your skin and rule out other concerns to make sure you get the right diagnosis and treatment.
