SWIFT

Swift is a new technology, developed in the UK, which has been licenced for the general treatment of skin lesions in Podiatry and Dermatology. Swift uses microwave energy which is delivered through a special probe applied to the skin to treat the affected tissue. It consists of timed bursts of microwaves, usually up to five seconds. Large and multiple sites can be treated during each appointment. The microwaves are applied through a specialised applicator direct to the wart/verruca. Your Podiatrist may prepare the site by gently shaving off overlying dead skin with a scalpel.

Podiatry

A podiatrist is a health care professional who mainly focuses on giving medical care to the foot and ankle. Podiatrists can diagnose, treat and prevent various foot conditions. They also diagnose and treat foot problems caused by underlying medical conditions such as diabetes. A podiatrist’s recommendations may include; orthotics (customized shoe inserts), specific physical exercises or medications to treat for example, specific skin conditions.

All podiatrists at Foot Clinic NI are Healthcare profession council registered and are trained to care for all members of the family from the very young to the very old.
