At Dubai Podiatry Centre, our highest success rate for plantar warts comes from our Dermojet treatment.

Dermojet uses a high-velocity stream of liquid delivered through a mechanical device. When the pressure is released, a microjet of liquid is ejected from the apparatus and penetrates through the skin to reach the deeper part of the plantar wart, allowing the treatment to be delivered more efficiently.

Warts elsewhere on the body usually grow outward. However, warts on the sole of the foot grow inward because of pressure from standing and walking. This means that treatments such as liquid nitrogen, salicylic acid, and laser, which may work well on external warts on other parts of the body, can have very different outcomes when used on the sole of the foot.

A wart on the top of the hand, for example, is more exposed and easier to reach with acid or liquid nitrogen. A plantar wart, commonly called a verruca, is inverted into the sole of the foot and is therefore less accessible.

For this reason, Dermojet is mainly reserved for plantar warts and verrucas on the sole of the foot. It is not usually required for outward-growing warts elsewhere on the body, where treatments such as liquid nitrogen or salicylic acid may be more suitable.
