Swift Microwave Therapy
The new Swift treatment is getting results where other treatments fail. By activating the body’s own immune system, Swift gets to the root cause of the problem – the HPV virus itself. Most traditional treatments for warts and plantar warts aim to destroy the skin – Swift delivers a short burst of microwave energy into the skin, without breaking the surface. No scarring, no mess, no dressings. Clinical research suggests that almost 8 out of 10 patients will experience success – no matter how long the lesion has persisted – with many clinics reporting success rates with Swift above 95%, compared to just 30% for traditional destructive therapies and 95% of patients would recommend Swift treament to a friend.

Benefits of Swift Microwave Therapy?
Immune Modulation vs. Tissue Destruction
The Swift treatment is different. Rather than destroying a wart by burning it off, freezing it, or pouring corrosive acid over it, Swift delivers a short, sharp dose of energy into the tissue to a pre-determined depth, only millimetres below the surface. Leacing the skin intact, Swift works by activating dendritic cells – they signal to the body that the virus is present, and t-cells clear the infection
Warts and plantar warts can be persistent because the body doesn’t know they are there. Swift wakes up the immune system, allowing the body to fight back – often clearing warts in distal sites that haven’t even been treated
No invasive surgery
No surgery means no down time for you. It means less pain after the procedure, and it means no bandages, no need to keep your foot dry, and no interruptions to daily life. In fact, 95% of patients have been able to continue daily activities (even vigorous exercise or training, an active job, or just a walk in the park) within 30 minutes of treatment.
Success rates
Some independent clinics see success rates in excess of 95%. An independent, university-led clinical trial in the UK saw results of 76% resolution across all cases. In this trial all plantar wart cases were long standing, some in excess of 10 years and other treatments had been used and failed before. Swift allows clinicians to finally treat with confidence, and patients can benfit from a very high chance of success.
Shorter treatments & appointments
Avoid disruption to your day and take advantage of a quick treatment. All Swift certified clinics offer fast and efficient services, letting you get back to what’s important.
Reduction in Pain
Patients undergoing this treatment see a significant reduction in pain associated with the plantar wart – freedom for what many patients have suffered with for months, years, & even decades.
Suitable for use with children
This treatment is safe for children, & the research tells us that children will resolve quicker, & in fewer appointments, than adults.
