What Is A Wart?

A common skin condition, warts are most often found on the hands, fingers, and around the fingernails. Warts generally look like little, fleshy peas, but they may differ in size. It is also normal for warts to appear in clusters on the knees and elbows. Warts are brought on by the human papilloma virus (HPV). They can be brought about from making direct contact with HPV. It can be spread from direct person-to-person contact or from making contact with an object used by a person with HPV, such as gym equipment, a towel, or the tile surrounding a pool. Though warts are usually harmless, they may be annoying and unattractive. Store-bought wart removal products aren't usually enough to treat warts so dermatologist Dr. Austin Mitchell provides wart removal at his office in Nashville, TN. If you or your child have a wart you'd like removed, schedule a consultation with Dr. Mitchell at Brentwood Skin Clinic.

How Are Warts Removed?

There are a few different ways we can treat warts. However, even after your first treatment, warts can reoccur so it's crucial to get the right treatment to minimize outbreaks. Freezing a wart is a normal treatment and can be done with success. With this technique, Dr. Mitchell applies liquid nitrogen to freeze the wart away. A blister will develop around the wart, and the frozen cells will fall off in a week. Another treatment is applying cantharidin, a substance that can cause redness of the skin once applied to a wart. The cantharidin is applied to the skin to form a blister around the wart, and it is a typical and popular treatment because the technique causes little to no discomfort. Burning (electrosurgery) or cryotherapy (freezing) can also be used, as well as curetting (scraping) or excising (cutting) the wart(s). Laser treatments, chemical peels, immunotherapy, or bleomycin injections may also be treatment options when the wart(s) is difficult to treat.

I have never had an extended wait beyond my appointment time with Dr. Mitchell. He is very informative in explaining what he finds and what should be done to cure the problem. I have had some skin moles removed there that required minor surgery. Never felt any pain and no problems with healing. I have been to many Dermatologists in my life and Dr. Mitchell is the best I have found.

Dr. Mitchell is the best/friendliest and coolest/young dermatologist that you will ever find. I personally have not seen any person like him. He is so kind, gentle, clean, intelligent and very understanding. He will do whatever he can to make you happy. Not only is he handsome :-) but he has the expertise at what he is doing and will listen to you and help you find a solution that you are searching for. He checks your skin and listens to your concerns carefully and respectfully. He has awesome bed side manners. He comes to you like a great friend instead of a doc. I can’t forget to mention his wonderful receptionist Kimberly and his great staff, they really seem to be happy there. I had some acne and moles on my face and the very first visit he prescribed meds and such, typically other dermatologists will make you wait and wait then come back several times until you get what you want. His office is like a spa honestly, it is very clean, calming, and quite! I am usually only waiting 10 minutes until I am called to the back which is a A+++. I would give him more starts and longer review if It allowed me. Highly highly highly recommend him. I will be sure to recommend him to all of my family and friends. Thank you doc Mitchell for everything you have done to my face! H.Sindy

I Googled for a dermatologist and Found Bentwood Skin Clinic. I noticed all the stars and said, that has to be honest because people are not gonna sugar coat anything. I made my visit today and was taken care of the right way from the second I walked in. Kim got all my info, walked me through the process and within 10 minutes I was in my room waiting for the DR. He knocked about 2 minutes after the Nurse left the room. Fast! Dr was young and cool. Had a great smile and wasn't all jaded from working a million years. Knew what was going on right away and had a solution. Checked the rest of my body for Moles etc and I was out in 30 minutes. Everyone was great and I was on with my day. Thank you If only everything could go that smoothly. :-)
