Overview
Molluscum contagiosum & Warts
Warts and Molluscum Contagiosum are benign epidermal eruptions resulting from viral infections of the skin
Warts are small lumps that develop on the skin, either singularly or in clusters. Commonly occurring on the hands and feet, warts are non-cancerous and non-harmful but can be embarrassing and unsightly. Warts are caused by an infection of the human papilloma virus, or HPV. This causes an excess of keratin, a hard protein that occurs naturally in the skin, resulting in the appearance of warts. The infection can be transmitted skin to skin contact or contact with contaminated surfaces.

What are Molluscum Contagiosum?
Molluscum contagiosum (MC) is sometimes called water warts. It is a viral infection of the skin that results in small raised pink lesions with a dimple in the middle. These lesions can become sore and itchy. They are also known to either appear on their own or in groups.
MCs can appear in any area of the skin such as:
- Abdomen
- Legs
- Neck
- Arms
- Genital areas
- Face (which is one of the most common areas MCs appear.)
People will usually notice the lesions after around seven weeks after infection.
Molluscum contagiosum will usually go away on their own within a year. However, on some occasions, these lesions can last for serval years on the skin.
MCs are more common in children than in adults. They spread by skin to skin contact or through sharing clothes and towels.

Can you remove Molluscum Contagiosum lesions?
Yes, you can easily remove molluscum contagiosum lesions at a dermatologist clinic. The most effective treatments for molluscum contagiosum are performed by a doctor.
At Dermasurge Clinic, Dr Hiba Injibar removes such lesions by a procedure called Cryotherapy. During this procedure, the doctor freezes each bump with liquid nitrogen.
In a few minutes, using local numbing cream, the lump can be easily and immediately removed.

Dr Hiba saved me. I need to see someone urgently about a fast growing/change growth under my eye. Dr Hiba took me in on her break. She did a wonderful job on removing the growth at a sensitive area. Stitches out this morning and it is almost invisible. Professional, soft-spoken – could not recommend her enough!
I had nose Surgery with Dr Hiba Injibar. I couldn’t be happier with the results. From the initial consultation, it was apparent that Dr Hiba Injibar has a lot of experience in the procedure which made me feel very secure. She was very clear about what can be done and was also very attentive to my requests. I would not want anyone else to operate me 🙂 I Recommend 100%.
Couldn’t Be More Happy
Really positive experience. Beautiful building, small but well maintained and laid out spaces. Friendly, welcoming and very professional reception staff. Efficient registration. The consultation was expert, careful and thorough. Treatment effective. Plus Dr Hiba is a warm and lovely person!
Her team was also outstanding and every staff member I interacted with was warm, supportive, and knowledgeable. The receptionist in particular went out of her way to help me and made the whole experience smooth and stress-free.
Highly recommend Dr. Hiba and her team for anyone looking for expert, considerate care.
Dr. Hiba is amazing, very professional and approachable. During my initial consultation Dr. Hiba provided clear advice and direction, regarding the treatment I was seeking. I felt supported and listened to. A treatment plan was drawn up and each treatment explained in detail.
My laser treatments were done by Manuela, who has been incredible. A top therapist, professional and so friendly. Thank you Manuela for the high standard of care you gave me!
I highly recommend Dr.Hiba and her team.
