Swift
Microwave Therapy for Warts
Swift is changing the way dermatologists treat warts. Leveraging the unique properties of microwave energy, Swift rapidly increases tissue temperatures to target the root cause of warts without anesthesia, bandages or downtime.
Time
5-10 min
As the name indicates, treatment times are very quick and can be performed during a routine office visit.
Results
3 Treatments
Depending on response to the treatment, most patients will see results after 3 treatments, one every 4 weeks.
Pain
Mild
Some minor discomfort may be experienced. Pain levels vary from person to person but most people undergoing Swift liken it to a pain similar to an injection or a scratch, lasting 2 - 3 seconds then quickly subsiding.
Price
$$
A Swift treatment costs $250. Swift treatments are not covered by insurance plans.
About Swift Technology
The use of microwave energy is what makes a Swift treatment so quick. Swift delivers a precise, highly controlled energy dose to a pre-determined depth into the skin. The latter part is crucial, and is what sets Swift apart from traditional treatments.
As microwaves travel to a pre-determined depth, they don’t break the surface of the skin and destroy tissue from the point of application – like Cryotherapy, Salicylic Acid or Laser Ablation. As soon as the treatment begins, microwaves are working within that defined field – and no deeper. Water molecules within the tissue begin colliding and creating localized heat energy, targeting the root cause of the issue.
Microwave energy rapidly elevates tissue temperature, triggering a natural immune response.

| Infected tissue can exist several millimeters below the surface and can often be difficult to treat using traditional methods, resulting in either untreated tissue or significant damage. | Swift delivers a precise, highly-controlled energy dose. As microwaves travel into the tissue, water molecules begin colliding and creating localized heat energy. | In just seconds, the treatment is complete and the immune response begins immediately. Heat shock proteins within the HPV infected cells are released, alerting the body to the presence of the virus. |
