Homer Glen Podiatrist Vittori Foot & Ankle Specialist Is Offering Microwave Based Wart Treatment for Plantar Warts

Vittori Foot & Ankle Specialist, a podiatry clinic with multiple locations in Illinois, is now offering patients plantar warts treatment using the Saorsa Swift System, a revolutionary new medical device that utilizes the power of microwave energy. Readers in Homer Glen and New Lenox can find out more about the podiatry clinic by visiting https://www.vittorifootclinic.com/.

The Saorsa Swift microwave-based plantar warts therapy has been hailed by podiatrists around the world as a game-changer. The machine distills down the lessons learned by scientists over decades of microwave radiation research into a portable tabletop machine that excels in outpatient settings. The Saorsa Swift system allows clinicians to offer a cleaner, safer, and more effective treatment for plantar warts than what current methods allow.

The microwave-based system is far more accurate at pinpointing and targeting the affected plantar wart tissues. Traditional methods of addressing plantar warts, such as cryotherapy, salicylic acid, laser ablation, or electrocautery, are imprecise and end up damaging the nearby healthy tissues during the procedure. Some of these methods are also painful to patients and may need the use of anesthesia. Moreover, laser and electrocautery devices create hazardous plumes requiring additional extraction equipment during the procedure for safety.

The Saorsa Swift microwave-based therapy solves all the problems of conventional plantar warts treatment methods. Saorsa’s research found patients did not develop any scarring after the procedure and reported only a few instances of low post-procedural pain. The requirement for dressing or padding is also greatly reduced. The appointments last anywhere from just 5 to 10 minutes in length, allowing clinicians to serve more clients throughout the day and reducing wait times for patients.

At Vittori Foot & Ankle Specialist, the application of the Saorsa Swift System will be overseen by Dr. Christopher Vittori, DPM, and Dr. Ameet Thakrar, DPM. Dr. Christopher Vittori, DPM, is Board Certified by the American Board of Foot and Ankle Surgery and has been selected for inclusion in the Guide to America’s Top Podiatrists, 2010 and 2011 Edition. He holds several hospital affiliations in Illinois, including Silver Cross Hospital in New Lenox, Advocate South Suburban Hospital in Hazel Crest, Loretto Hospital in Chicago, and Justice Med-Surg Center. Dr. Ameet Thakrar, DPM, received his Doctor of Podiatric Medicine from Dr. William M. Scholl College of Podiatric Medicine at Rosalind Franklin University, followed by an intensive foot and ankle-focused residency at Weiss Memorial Hospital, where he is still actively involved, and Cook County Health and Hospital System in Chicago.
