A member asked:

Could you tell me what happens after you get a wart removed?

Healing without scar: Warts are typically causes by a virus infecting the skin. Wart removal involves destruction of infected cells and the affected area leading to resolution of the problem, ideally without any scarring. Multiple warts, immunosuppression, or re-infected can lead to recurrence of warts.

Healing: Healing should take place to fill the area in with good skin. If a large area it may heal with scar tissue.
