The dermatologists often encounter such questions as “Doctor, recently my face suddenly appeared a lot of small bumps, no pain, no itch”, “Doctor, my face a few years ago suddenly appeared a lot of small bumps, originally thought it would eliminate itself, but more and more, the area is getting bigger and bigger, and the color The actual fact is that they all belong to the same disease: flat warts.
The actual fact is that you can find a lot of people who are not able to get a good deal on a lot of things. The surface is smooth, scattered or dense, and can be fused into small patches, or arranged in a bead-like pattern along the scratches (isomorphic reaction). There are no conscious symptoms, but itching often occurs before it subsides. The course of the disease is slow and can last 3 to 4 years without healing, and a few are self-limiting.
So, how to self-judge in life? The actual fact is that you can find a lot of people who are not able to get a good deal on a lot of things. The color of the warts is light brown or dark brown; for more than 6 years, the color of the warts is grayish brown. The current methods used for the treatment of flat warts are more, currently often choose the treatment include.
The actual physical therapy
1, laser treatment: laser treatment of flat warts in the clinical advantages, laser can act to the wart body, so that the coagulation, carbonization and vaporization, to remove the warts purpose.
(1) CO2 laser as the traditional treatment of flat warts, with good efficacy, quick results, short course of treatment, low price, easy to accept and other advantages. However, because the depth of laser action is difficult to predict, often the treatment is too deep to cause scarring, affecting the aesthetic; treatment is too shallow to remove warts is not complete, easy to recur. Especially for the number of warts or fusion of flat warts, CO2 laser can easily cause large area trauma, scarring and pigmentation, or cause high recurrence, so it is not considered as the first choice if the technical level is not in place.
(2) KTP frequency doubling laser is 532 nm YAG laser, which is more easily absorbed by protein tissues than general YAG laser, with shallow tissue penetration, obvious vaporization effect on tissues and less thermal damage to surrounding normal tissues. There are fewer complications and less pain during surgery, and the postoperative recovery is fast. Our years of clinical application suggest that KTP/YAG 532 nm laser is the ideal light source for light brown flat warts treatment.
(3) QS1064 nm laser has blasting effect on dark colored warts tissue cells, which can remove warts well. The QS1064 laser is less likely to cause pigmentation and scar formation. It can significantly improve the cure rate of flat warts, low recurrence rate, safe and inexpensive, and easy to operate. The application of our light source suggests that this is currently an effective treatment method for dark flat warts.
2, freezing method to treat flat warts is through low temperature repeatedly freezing and thawing to make the lesion tissue necrosis off, so as to achieve the purpose of treating the disease. It has the advantages of simple operation and safe and easy to perform. However, it is easy to repeat, the effect on the deeper lesions is not good, and local pain, edema, blistering, bleeding, etc. When the number of flat warts is large, it needs to be frozen several times, and the treatment period is significantly longer compared with laser treatment.
3, other physical therapy methods and microwave therapy, high-frequency electrocautery scraping, scraping, etc. have some effect, but also scarring, discoloration and recurrence of adverse reactions.
Chemical methods
1, trichloroacetic acid can be destroyed by local corrosion flat warts to achieve the purpose of treatment, but can not completely remove flat warts, easy to recur. It is also easy to leave a scar, affecting the beauty.
2, the ghost of the toxin can also be through the local corrosion damage flat warts to achieve the purpose of treatment, but the effect is not good, the local skin has a certain stimulating effect, can cause local pigmentation.
Three, biological methods
1, the topical use of opium seeds is a traditional treatment of flat warts, but because of the local irritation, resulting in skin burning sensation and redness, patients are often unacceptable, is rarely used.
The actual fact is that you can find a lot of people who are not able to get a good deal on a lot of things.
3, Imiquimod not only has the role of reducing warts, but also has to regulate the local immune function, to inhibit the virus, to reduce recurrence function. But the course of treatment is long, the efficacy is uncertain, patients often complete treatment.
Fourth, other
The clinical treatment of flat warts is mostly a combination of drugs, mostly from the anti-virus, enhance the immune function to start.
Chinese herbal medicine can better treat the disease and complex recurrence.
In conclusion, flat warts are found on the face, face and neck, back of the hand and other exposed parts of the body, seriously affecting the appearance of patients, causing great psychological stress to patients. The actual fact is that there are many ways to treat flat warts, but there are not many methods that are effective and have few side effects, and are prone to recurrence. The traditional carbon dioxide laser, chemotherapy, immunotherapy cure rate is low, easy to recur. KTP/YAG 532 nm laser and QS1064 nm laser is a new type of flat warts treatment method, with selective killing of infected cells, good efficacy, high cure rate, low recurrence rate, small side effects and other advantages, and safe and inexpensive, easy to operate, so is the current treatment of flat warts preferred method.
