Hello
Thanks for your query.
There are certain surgical procedures for removal of warts.
One method involves application of topical agents such as TCA, podophyllotoxin, etc on the warts.
Other methods involve physical ablation such as cryotherapy, laser, electrosurgery and excision.
There is always a chance of recurrence of genital warts.
The treatment also takes time to show effect, so you need to be patient.
take care
