Warts are common, harmless viral skin growths. Because facial skin is delicate, treatments differ by location to prevent scarring. For your fingers, topical salicylic acid or in-office cryotherapy (freezing) is highly effective. For facial warts, avoid harsh over-the-counter acids. Instead, a dermatologist can prescribe gentler topical medications like imiquimod cream or tretinoin (a retinoid). They may also recommend in-office procedures like laser therapy or light electrocautery. Since zinc and homoeopathic remedies haven't cleared them, consulting a dermatologist is the safest next step to get a tailored, effective treatment plan for both your face and hands.
