What are Papillomas?
Most papillomas are caused by a human papillomavirus (HPV) and are benign growths and can vary between 1-4cm in size. Although these are harmless, with any lump or bump found on the body is best to get checked by a professional.

Before your procedure:

- Patients do not require a hospital bed, therefore, you are discharged home following a short recovery.
- All procedures are undertaken under local anaesthesia, making your recovery much quicker and far less of a risk compared to general anaesthesia.
- For those patients who are a little nervous, we can perform your procedure under light sedation.
- We offer treatment for those patients under 18 years of age.
- We provide all our patients with a free 24 hour on-call services following your procedure.
After your procedure:
- You will be given verbal advice on how to look after your wound, dressings and bathing.
- If advised, your lesion will be sent to our Histology lab and a report prepared.
