I found this product to have worked really well for me. I had one plantear wart on my foot that over the course of a year got very large and then spread to make about10-15 other warts on the same foot. When I saw another wart on my other foot, I knew I had to do something about it. I used this, and they are all gone now and my skin looks back to normal. Some tips I have are:
1)You WILL most likely need to re-apply multiple times for the wart to be gone. It took me about 5 times, for them to all disappear. In addition, the package recommends 1 treatment every 4 weeks or something like that, but I did a treatment every 1.5 weeks, and that seemed to work great with no side effects.
2) Before I did the freeze off treatment, I would exfoliate the area as best I could and then wait a day and do the treatment. I felt like that exposed the affected area well and made it more responsive to treatment.
3) The application sticks are quite large, so If youre using them for tiny warts on the face or body, you have to be quite careful not to burn surrounding skin which may scar. However, If youre using the product on the palm of your hand or the bottom of your foot, I wouldnt worry as much because that skin is pretty resilient. Although at first when the wart healed, I had little indentations of dead skin, they eventually smoothed out and look completely normal
Hopefully this helps. I know my doctor was testing out a freeze-off treatment like this for warts as a backup in case their nitrogen tanks fail/are empty. So this kind of thing is getting into mainstream healthcare, so I wouldnt write it off. With a little work, it will save you a few bucks and the time it takes to go to the doctor.

OK, so, if you do NOT use this product CORRECTLY it will NOT work.
If you are a WUSS and can not stand even a LITTLE PAIN, this product will not work for you.....
I had gotten a wart on my left middle finger RIGHT on the edge of my nail (VERY Difficult area to treat). I had tried the liquid treatments that you brush on, I tried garlic, AND I even went to the doctor (who used a VERY similar kit to this..... and who also did not hold it on long enough, or on the WHOLE wart).....
Needless to say I was fed up with having this darn thing on my finger for over a YEAR!!!!!
I went out and bought this kit. I followed the instructions SOMEWHAT to a T. IT says to wait 2 weeks before repeating treatment... I found that if in a couple of days my finger felt fine and was not sore and did not ache, then I would treat it again.
Also, I kept the tip of the applicator pressed on the wart from 40-50 seconds (10 secs longer then they recommend) .... or pretty much as long as I could take it UP TO 50 seconds..... (It REALLY hurts like heck leaving it on up to 50 secs!)
Here are some tips:
1.) Find a way to shave down the top of the wart... use a nail file, sandpaper, scalpel (my mom is a nurse, therefore I have them on hand)... Get all of the top/dead layers off. MAKE SURE YOU DO NOT HANDLE THE SHAVINGS THAT YOU CUT OFF! THEY WILL HAVE THE WART VIRUS CONTAINED WITHIN THEM! WASH THEM DOWN THE DRAIN/THROW THEM AWAY ASAP! (Do NOT cut/file TOO far down! if you get too deep you will cause the wart to bleed, and trying to get a wart to stop bleeding is almost impossible! It has it's own little set of blood vessels and does not CLOT! The bleeding may also spread the wart to other areas also!
2.)SOAK the area to be treated in warm water for 5-10 minutes. The longer the better. It saturates the area, and get's it nice and plump with water so that when you actually freeze it the freezing process can travel through the tissue better and get down deeper to the wart.
3.) Even on smaller warts freeze it until you feel some stinging. Meaning, if you leave it on 10-20 secs and you don't feel any pain, leave it on a little longer (NOT over 50 secs!!!!) If you do not feel pain you're really not freezing deep enough to kill the virus!
4.) If you need to treat more then once, do it BEFORE the end of the two week limit they say on the box. What I would do, is in say 3-5 days, if the area was NOT tender anymore, and it did NOT ache or hurt anymore, I'd freeze it again, repeating the steps I listed above. DON'T overdo it however, you could end up REALLY killing off your good skin!
I froze the one on my left middle finger about 3-4 times in a timeframe of about 2 weeks, and I did ALL the above steps I listed. It finally disappeared! A doctor didn't help, the liquid brush on stuff didn't help! JUST this stuff!!!!!!!!
IT WORKS IF YOU DO IT RIGHT!!!!!

Had two warts frozen off by a dermatologist, but it wasn't until I used this product that they went away & NEVER came back. Save appointment-making time and perhaps even a few bucks, and get this product. It make take a few zaps over a period of a few weeks, but eventually, warts will disappear. Follow instructions closely so as not to permanently damage or scar affected area.

First of all this product does work if it is used correctly. If you want faster and better results take a razor and shave the wart as low as you can. this will allow the freezing liquid to penetrate to its root with fewer treatments. If you have no tolerance for pain just don't go too low. I personally went at it until it bled. Also if it does'nt sting while your applying it your not holding it on long enough or your waiting too long after you apply it to the q-tip before you use it.
