Dr Scholl's Dual Action Freeze Away Wart Remover, 8 ct – Twice as Effective as Freezing Alone on Larger Warts, Fast-Acting Treatment for Common and Plantar Wart Removal, Safe to Use on Kids Ages 4+

I got this 18days ago. Used it religiously twice a day for approximately 8 days. Since the wart was 3mm big in my finger, i thought the freezeaway can would be overkill. plus i was afraid of giving myself such a deep frostbite that i would definitely end up having to see a doc. So i used the 17% salicylic acid that came with this box. worked beautifully. only thing is, make sure you apply ONLY on the wart and not surrounding tissue. I made the mistake of letting the acid touch surrounding healthy skin , it started to peel off and become raw. So i pulled back, let the rawness heal for a day, and reapplied the salicylic acid only on the wart. You maybe tempted to pick at the wart as it peels off. i would not do that, as it would again make the area raw and painful. not to mention risk of spreading the hpv virus to other parts of your body.I always applied it after my morning or evening shower which helps soften the skin and the salicylic acid penetrates better into the water soaked wart. At ALL times i had it covered with white cloth tape. You can get this tape from walmart. and cut the size you want (cheaper than buying bandaids)Need to cover it because i don’t want it to spread anywhere else. warts are created by hpv virus. and virus spread if you are susceptible.Warts appear when our immune system is challenged.So i started paying attention to what i eat as well, started eating healthy again, fresh or frozen berries full of anti oxidants, lot more hydration with water(2L a day with a spurt of lemon in it) , NO foods that have sugar in it, no fast food, no soda and most of all i started paying attention to my stress levels.What’s the likelihood when you are stressed out, your immune system goes down too?Take a computer and load the software with more than it can handle, what happens? Everything slows down or speeds up?Our brains much like the computer. We stress it out, everything in our body…speeds up working perfectly or slows down?I also did something different, by sending positive intentions to myself, especially the wart area that’s healing. sounds silly i know…But if you believe in the power of healing energy, it doesn’t hurt to do it.Saved my self probably $500 upwards from going to a dermatologist…Read ALL the instructions on the leaflet.Make sure you know it’s a wart and not anything else.You could also get cheap online consultation with Seseme - a platform that offers doctors for much cheaper than if you walked into an office. If you have health insurance then no worries.I am a doctor so i avoided that step by diagnosing myself.I still did my research to make sure it IS a wart.. and not a melanoma(cancer) or something crazy.I trust this was helpfulBelow is a picture when the wart came off after one of my long hot showers.There is still some tiny black spots left on my finger, maybe it’s residual hpv virus, so i am going to treat the area until it completely clears out with minimal salicylic acid.Also i invite you to work on loving your self even more during this healing period.Having a wart can invite you to feel self conscious. People might ask “hey what happened to your finger? Ewww”You may feel a bit embarrassed which i did feel. This is called being ….human.Remember this wart is temporary.So I invite you to focus on what you can be grateful for instead. eg: you have hands and feet, you can see, you are blessed with …etc etcBecause when you feel overwhelming gratitude for what you do have, can fear exist in your mind at the same time?Sending much healing energy your way🦋😘🎁🌎🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

I have a couple small warts on my hands. I’ve tried so many things since January trying to get rid of them. I bought this stuff in June and was skeptical because nothing else seemed to work. As I had been using this product for almost a month it did not seem to work, until I started using a nail file everytime before applying the liquid solution. My last time freezing was 3 weeks ago and 2 of them are almost completely gone, one is completely gone, the other 2 on my hand that are still there are almost not noticeable. The one that is completely gone is the largest one that I had the longest. I’m guessing because I paid more attention to it. But I am shocked how well this works and would definitely recommend to anyone who is struggling with getting rid of their warts.

Better then paying thousands of dollars going to foot dr and dealing w tht and then having to cont going back cuz it usually dont work first or second time round so u gotta fijd time and money to cont going back its terrible ths is big help tho got it for the husband and it works we use file first to get as close to the problem as we can and then lite it up w the freeze stuff

I've paid way too much to my dermatologist to try to get rid of this icky little seborrheic keratosis (a/k/a wisdom wart, a/k/a barnacle of old age) that decided to pop up in my ear a couple years ago. She froze it the first time... And it came back. She cut it out the second time... And it came back. So rather than spend another $250, I did some online sleuthing and read several accounts of people freezing SKs off themselves. I decided to give it a go. At first I was hesitant because using this can of freezy stuff in my ear, close to my face, near my brain - but I was totally over thinking things. I finally committed and was surprised to find it wasn't painful and I was able to completely control the application. I used it several times but didn't see much happening - immediately after application, the SK would turn white, but then went right back to normal. I almost gave up but then figured hey, I bought this darn thing, might as well use the rest of the can. I continued 1-2 times per day for about 2 weeks. Still didn't see much happening... Until this morning! Got out of the shower and was cleaning my ears... And it pretty much fell off!! So happy I can put my hair up without being self-conscious about this creepy ear growth! The skin still feels a bit bumpy so I'm not convinced it's gone for good, but at least now I know I can manage it at home. Also... BIG NOTE: at one of my doctor visits I had the SK biopsied so I knew exactly what this was before I started.

It's a ok product

It works. Follow the instructions and be patient.

Do not buy this freeze away I bought 2 of them and both of them are defective and is only compressed air. It will never get cold to freeze the wart off. And amazon WILL NOT LET YOU RETURN IT. Pick another brand or just go to a store that will let you return a defective item.

I didn’t use the wart gel, but the freezing stick works great. I had a particularly stubborn wart that was growing inward and so it took a few freezes but this one always does the job when others I’ve used don’t even cause the skin to blister.
