Huntington area dermatologist can treat facial warts

Home » Huntington area dermatologist can treat facial warts

Huntington area patients who struggle with the appearance of warts on the facial area often are embarrassed by these unsightly skin formations. Warts come in a variety of types, and are caused by the human papilloma virus. Warts can appear anywhere on the skin, but are most common on the hands. Warts are contagious, and the virus can spread if others touch the exposed wart. These growths can take months to form after exposure, making it difficult sometimes to determine where exposure occurred. Warts on the facial area may make patients self-conscious about their appearance. This is when they call a dermatologist to discuss removal of the wart.
