How Does Swift System Work?
Swift delivers a precise dose of microwave energy directly to the affected tissue. The controlled heat stimulates your body’s immune response, helping it recognize and fight the HPV virus responsible for plantar warts.
Unlike traditional treatments that destroy the wart itself, Swift works by encouraging your immune system to eliminate the underlying infection, helping reduce the likelihood of the wart returning.
Why Is Swift Different?
Traditional wart treatments often focus on removing visible tissue, which may not eliminate the virus causing the infection. Swift System takes a different approach by activating your body’s natural immune response, helping treat the source of the problem rather than just the symptom.

Swift System FAQs
Have questions about Swift System?
Here are answers to some of the most common questions about how the treatment works, what to expect, and who may benefit from this innovative procedure.
How does Swift System work?
Swift System delivers precise microwave energy directly to the affected tissue, creating a controlled heat response that stimulates your body’s immune system. Rather than simply removing the visible wart, the treatment helps your body recognize and fight the human papillomavirus (HPV) responsible for the infection, reducing the risk of recurrence. Each session takes only a few minutes, and most patients can return to their normal activities immediately afterward.
How safe are microwaves?
Microwaves are a form of non-ionising radiation, which means that they can’t cause damage to the DNA of living things. The same fundamental technology that powers Swift, is also being used in the treatment of lung, liver, kidney and breast cancer in countries all over the world.
Are there any harmful side effects?
There are no harmful side effects to the Swift Treatment. The treatment is not recommended for patients with pacemakers and you should avoid interaction with metal implants. Do not point the Swift Applicator at the eyes or the testes.
Is there any downtime after Swift Therapy?
No. Swift Therapy requires little to no downtime, allowing most patients to return to work, school, sports, and other daily activities immediately after their appointment. Some mild tenderness or discomfort may occur for a short time following treatment, but it typically resolves quickly without affecting normal routines.
Who is a good candidate for Swift System?
Swift System is ideal for patients with persistent or recurrent plantar warts that have not improved with traditional treatments such as topical medications, freezing (cryotherapy), or over-the-counter options. It is especially useful for individuals who want a non-invasive treatment that targets the underlying HPV virus rather than just removing the visible wart.
Both children and adults may be candidates, particularly when warts are painful, spreading, or returning frequently. A proper evaluation is needed to confirm if Swift Therapy is the right option for your specific case.
Can I finance my Swift System treatment?
Yes. We offer flexible financing through Cherry, allowing patients to receive care now and pay over time. The application takes about 60 seconds, does not require a hard credit check, and eligible patients may qualify for 0% APR and other promotional payment options.
