Description of the drug
Wartner is a remedy for the removal of common and plantar warts. This happens by freezing and necrotizing pathological tissues.
If the instructions are strictly followed, detachment of the tumor can be achieved in a short period of time. The big advantage of using the drug is that after removing the tumor there are no scars, cicatrices or other marks left.
Important!
Strains of papilloma virus may have different oncogenicity index. In case of high oncogenicity, the tumor should be removed only by a qualified specialist in a clinical setting.
If the formation has an average oncogenic status, home removal should be carried out only according to the doctor’s instructions; neoplasms of low oncogenic risk can be removed at home if the instructions for use of the drug are strictly followed.
Active substance
Wartner aerosol contains:
- Dimethyl ether is a gas classified as an ether. Chemically inert, colorless, but with a sharp specific odor.
- Propane is an alkane, a component of natural gas. Odorless, explosive, slightly toxic. The medicinal properties of the drug are based precisely on the interaction of the skin with propane.
The Wartner pen contains trichloroacetic acid concentrate.
Release form
The drug is available in three forms - aerosol, pen applicator, gel.
Wartner applicator pen
The drug is placed in an oblong plastic bottle with a soft tip. This makes it convenient to use for spot application.
Aerosol "Wartner cryo"
The aerosol is in a container. Volume 50 ml. The kit includes the aerosol itself, a plastic holder so that the product does not get on healthy tissue, 12 disposable applicators and a file for removing the stratum corneum of the tumor.
Gel
The gel contains trichloroacetic acid. Designed for local spot application.
Mechanism of action on warts
The principle of action of the drug is based on the instant freezing of pathological tissues, which leads to their necrosis. After applying the product to the neoplasm for three days, a bubble forms on it, which has a protective function - it prevents the addition of a secondary infection and accelerates the process of cell regeneration.
After a couple of days, the bubble bursts on its own, and a crust forms in its place. Then, after a little more time, the crust gradually disappears, and healthy skin is restored in its place.
Reference! At first, the treated area has a lighter tone, but over time it blends into the skin tone.
Removal of warts and spines
Amphibians have nothing to do with the appearance of warts on the human body. The human papillomavirus is to blame for this. More than 600 species of this noncellular infectious agent are known. About 40 species cause the formation of benign epithelial tumors, which are called warts, papillomas and condylomas.
Modern medicine is unable to destroy the virus. She struggles with eliminating the consequences of his activities. Special medicines have been created to destroy growths. In addition , neoplasms are eliminated in medical institutions using the following procedures:
- Surgical removal.
- Chemical cauterization.
- Cryodestruction.
- Electrocoagulation.
- Radio wave removal.
- Laser coagulation.
Cryodestruction is the destruction of pathologically altered tissue by exposure to extremely low temperatures. For this, liquid nitrogen is used, the temperature of which is minus 196 degrees. The procedure is painless and does not require anesthesia.
After a correctly performed procedure, the patient is left with no scars. Another advantage of the method is the absence of bleeding. Cryodestruction is effective against vulgar, flat and plantar warts. And also from papillomas, genital warts and fibroepithelial polyps.
Indications for use: do you need a prescription from a doctor?
Despite the fact that the drug is dispensed from pharmacies without a doctor's prescription, this does not eliminate the need for consultation with a specialist.
It is impossible to independently determine the type and nature of a skin growth, and given the fact that the product is repurposed to remove only benign tumors, a visit to a doctor is mandatory.
Indications for use Wartner:
- common vulgar warts;
- plantar warts, the diameter of which does not exceed 7 mm.
Destruction of neoplasms of unknown etiology is strictly prohibited.
Instructions for using the product
Step-by-step instructions for using Wartner aerosol:
- Take the applicator by the blue part and insert the holder rod so that the rod is not visible.
- Take the canister vertically and insert the holder with the applicator so that the applicator is not visible. The aerosol can should be held at the bottom with one hand and pressed on the holder with the other until a hiss appears. Hold in this position for 3 seconds.
- Remove the holder with the applicator from the bottle opening.
- Immediately press the end of the applicator onto the tumor, making sure that the contact is complete. If the size of the tumor is less than 2.5 mm, the duration of exposure is 10 seconds, if the size is 2.5-5 mm - 15 seconds. For larger tumors, the application is applied for 20 seconds, but no more.
- After finishing treatment, wait 2-3 minutes, then remove the applicator from the holder and throw it away.

- 100% guarantee that the growth will disappear within a few weeks;
- no traces after removing the growth;
- Possibility of use in childhood;
- convenience and no need for pain relief;
- effective even against old warts.
Cryopharm has a slightly different medicinal formula, but in fact, both drugs are analogues.
The positive qualities of Cryopharm are:
- ease of use;
- gentle effect;
- quick removal of skin growths.
After using this product, scars may remain on the skin. However, this is a temporary effect that disappears after a few months.
The cost of these products also does not vary much; depending on the pharmacy chain, you can purchase Wartner and Cryopharm from 550 to 1200 rubles.
Side effect
- It is important to use the product exactly according to these instructions, as if frozen too deeply, it can cause damage to the skin, resulting in scarring, hypo- or hyperpigmentation, or nerve damage.
— It is not recommended to keep the applicator on the wart for more than the time indicated in the table, because freezing the skin too deeply can lead to local tissue damage and hemorrhage.
— The applicator should be on the affected area for at least 10 and no more than 20 seconds. Use the diagram to accurately determine the time.
— As with any freezing method, the skin may become damaged.
-For some people, using the applicator may cause pain.
— In some cases, age spots or small scars appear after using the product.
- After using the drug Wartner, minor skin damage in the area of the wart may occur due to low temperature, as described above.
— If the wart is not completely frozen out, relapses are possible with an increase in the size of the previous neoplasm.
-The use of this method does not guarantee the complete destruction of warts and the absence of recurrence in the future.
— Since the diameter of the applicator is approximately 10 mm, you need to remember that the destruction area will be the same size.
Therefore, if the wart is small, the healthy skin around it will be injured.
Reviews about the product
Kolesnichenko Maria, Syktyvkar.
“Wartner Cryo is a very good and effective product. I removed warts from myself and my 11-year-old daughter - we waited for the results with some concerns, but everything went smoothly, the drug helped from the first use. It’s easy to use and the instructions explain everything in great detail.” Proskurina Elena, Mogilev. “I used this drug to remove an old wart on my leg. Once in childhood I already removed it with liquid nitrogen in the clinic. I remember that it was very painful then, and a large bubble appeared that did not heal for a long time. Wartner's freezing is more gentle, and therefore the procedure is absolutely painless. Efficiency is 100%, I am satisfied and recommend it to everyone.” Sapronova Emma, Bogoroditsk. “There was a small wart on my finger, which was often injured and was very annoying. I’ve wanted to have it removed for a long time, but I never had time to go to the clinic. When Wartner showed up at the pharmacy, I decided to try to remove the wart at home. And I didn’t regret it at all. In just two weeks there was no trace left of the growth. And why didn’t I do this before?” Melnik Svetlana, Ekaterinburg. “Wasted money. I tried to remove a wart on my finger – it was small, about 5.5 mm. Neither the first, nor the second, nor the third time the drug removed the tumor; apparently, you will have to use all 12 applicators, that is, carry out 12 procedures for such a small wart to finally disappear. A friend of mine removed a similar wart in a salon in 1 session, and has already forgotten about this problem.” Preparations for home removal of skin growths are easy to use and quite effective. If you follow all the precautions and instructions for using the product, you can get rid of cosmetic skin defects very quickly.
