Conditions Treated
What laser therapy removes
Plantar Warts
Caused by HPV virus, plantar warts grow inward under pressure from standing and walking โ making them extremely painful. Laser eliminates the virus at the root.
Corns
Hardened skin build-up from friction and pressure on bony areas. Laser precisely removes the core without damaging surrounding healthy tissue.
Plantar Lesions
Stubborn skin lesions on the bottom of the foot that resist traditional treatments. Laser therapy targets and destroys abnormal tissue with precision.
Fungal Lesions
Fungal infections of the skin or nails that cause thickening, discoloration, and discomfort. Laser penetrates deep to destroy fungal spores.
Calluses
Thickened skin from repeated friction. When conservative debridement isn't enough, laser treatment provides precise and lasting removal.
Recurring Lesions
Warts and lesions that keep coming back after over-the-counter treatments. Laser therapy addresses the underlying cause, not just the surface.
The Procedure
What to expect at your visit
01
Consultation
Dr. Husein examines the lesion, confirms the diagnosis, and explains the procedure. Most patients are treated the same day.
02
Numbing
A local anesthetic is applied so you feel nothing during the procedure. Most patients report minimal to no discomfort.
03
Laser Treatment
The laser precisely targets and destroys the lesion. The procedure typically takes 15โ30 minutes depending on the size and depth.
04
Recovery
Most patients walk out and resume normal activity the same day. The treated area heals cleanly over 2โ4 weeks with simple at-home care.
Why Laser
Advantages of laser therapy
Painless procedure
Local anesthetic ensures complete comfort. No cutting, no stitches, no post-procedure pain medication needed in most cases.
High success rate
Laser therapy achieves significantly higher clearance rates than over-the-counter treatments, acids, or cryotherapy for stubborn lesions.
Minimal downtime
Walk in, walk out. Same-day return to normal activity for most patients. No crutches, no extended recovery period.
Precise & safe
The laser targets only the abnormal tissue, leaving healthy surrounding skin completely unaffected. No scarring in most cases.
Treats root cause
Unlike topical treatments that only address the surface, laser therapy destroys the virus or fungal infection at its source to prevent recurrence.
Same-day treatment
In most cases, consultation and treatment happen at the same visit. No need for multiple appointments before receiving care.

Questions
Frequently asked questions
Does laser treatment hurt?
โพ
No. A local anesthetic is applied before the procedure so you feel nothing during treatment. Some patients experience mild soreness in the area for 1โ2 days after, which resolves on its own.
How many treatments will I need?
โพ
Most plantar warts and lesions are resolved in one to two treatments. Dr. Husein will assess your specific case and give you a realistic expectation at your consultation.
Can I walk after the procedure?
โพ
Yes. Most patients walk out of the office and resume normal activity the same day. You may be advised to wear comfortable shoes and avoid strenuous exercise for a day or two.
Does insurance cover laser treatment?
