SWIFT Microwave Therapy for Verruca in Limerick

The Only SWIFT Provider in Limerick – Evidence-Based Verruca Treatment

If you’ve been dealing with a stubborn verruca that just won’t go away, you’re not alone.

Verrucae can persist for months, sometimes years... especially when traditional treatments like acids, freezing, or home remedies fail.

At My Podiatry, Limerick, we are proud to be the only clinic in Limerick offering SWIFT® Microwave Therapy, an advanced, clinically proven treatment designed to stimulate your body’s immune response and clear verrucae effectively.

What Is SWIFT Microwave Therapy?

SWIFT is a medical microwave technology developed in the UK specifically for the treatment of verrucae.

Unlike freezing or topical acids, SWIFT does not destroy tissue chemically. Instead, it delivers a precise burst of microwave energy into the verruca tissue, stimulating your immune system to recognise and clear the viral infection.

The treatment works by:

• Raising tissue temperature rapidly

• Triggering an immune response

• Targeting HPV (human papillomavirus) within the verruca

• Encouraging natural resolution

It is needle-free, drug-free, and non-surgical.

What Happens During a SWIFT Appointment?

At My Podiatry, every SWIFT treatment begins with a full assessment.

The typical appointment process includes:

1. Gentle preparation of the verruca surface (light filing if required)

2. Precise microwave energy application

3. A 2-second pulse delivered 5 times

4. Intensity adjusted to your comfort level

You may experience brief discomfort during the pulse, often described as a sharp heat sensation, but this lasts only seconds. The energy level can be adjusted depending on individual tolerance.

There is no need for anaesthetic, injections, or dressings, and you can walk out immediately after treatment.

How Many SWIFT Treatments Are Needed?

Most patients require a course of treatments spaced a few weeks apart. The exact number depends on:

• How long the verruca has been present

• Previous failed treatments

• Immune response

• Size and depth of the lesion

Your Podiatrist will assess and create a personalised plan.

Why My Podiatry Is Different

We are not general therapists, we are CORU-Registered Podiatrists.

This means:

• Accurate diagnosis (not every lesion is a verruca)

• Full vascular and neurological assessment where required

• Evidence-based clinical reasoning

• Safe treatment protocols

• Clear follow-up strategy

As the only SWIFT provider in Limerick, we combine advanced microwave technology with specialist podiatric expertise.

Our goal is simple: resolve the problem safely, efficiently, and professionally.

Is SWIFT Safe?

Yes. SWIFT is CE-marked medical technology and has been widely used across the UK and Ireland.

It does not create an open wound and does not involve chemicals or freezing agents.

Because it stimulates immune response rather than damaging tissue extensively, many patients prefer it over traditional options.

Who Is a Good Candidate?

SWIFT may be suitable if:

• Your verruca has not responded to freezing or acids

• You want a non-invasive option

• You prefer a treatment without dressings or downtime

• You have a painful plantar verruca affecting walking or sport

A full assessment will determine suitability.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does SWIFT treatment hurt?

There is a short, sharp heat sensation during each 2-second pulse. Intensity can be adjusted to your tolerance.

Is there downtime?

No. You can walk immediately after treatment and continue daily activities.

Is it better than freezing?

SWIFT works differently by stimulating immune response rather than causing tissue destruction. Suitability depends on the individual case.

Can children have SWIFT?

Yes, following assessment.

Why choose a podiatrist for verruca treatment?

Correct diagnosis and risk assessment are essential. Not all skin lesions on the foot are verrucae.
