AVOCA 40%

The pencils do exactly as the manufacturers state and cleared the problem very quickly. The ONLY down side is that as others have found, the tips are VERY susceptible to breakage and I would urge anyone thinking of purchasing them to consider (2) items, just in case!

Used once, followed instructions..waited a week to use again, took the lid off and the end snapped off, unable to use again. It's gone straight in the bin. Rubbish quality

Heard about this product from a colleague who also had a troubling verucca. None of the usual remedies had worked, Bazuka, Scholl gel, even cider vinegar. I had limited success with freeze spray that removed the verucca but it kept growing back. In desperation I tried Avoca. I could feel the difference within a week (after using it just twice) as the pain slowly subsided and the verucca started to shrink. After two weeks 90% of the pain had gone. 4 weeks after treatment the verucca was dead and fell off and I am now pain free. I think I only used the product four times in all and yet it still worked. The instructions say to use every day but I found that not necessary. I think I only used it twice a week for two weeks and I could feel the difference. The verucca stopped throbbing and started shrinking so I could tell it was working. After the pain subsided I stopped using it. A brilliant product that I can't see why it is for sale in chemists shops. My only word of caution is that the contents are extremely fragile. Rather than touching the stick directly to the skin as the instructions say I found dipping the stick into ONE drop of water for 20 seconds and then applying that water to the area with a fine artists paint brush did the trick and preserved the life of the stick. I'm annoyed at myself for wasting all that time & money on mainstream verucca treatments at chemists (none of them worked) and then finding this was by far the most effective and quickest treatment.

My daughter had about 10 veruccas, we started off with one and tried the liquids and freezing but they just kept spreading and out of control. The freezing made them blister and they were so painful. Doctor recommended this product and then duct tape each day over the top. It has worked wonders. And they are almost completely gone! This has taken about 2 months of weekly applying this product and daily duct taping (mostly overnight as school etc) Brilliant product!

It's a neatly made stick, and delivers a lower concentration of medication than the 95% ones - useful in applications where the 95% is too strong. But the tip is indeed fragile, and I broke one a year ago - my bad. Had to replace it. The trick is to read the instructions first! . We've just replaced our second one, which has worn out with normal use. . For those unwilling to read the directions, they tell the user to put a drop or two of water on a suitable surface, then waggle the tip in the water to dissolve some silver nitrate. When that's done, transfer the drop(s) to the target area. Done! . If (as I did at first) you just try to rub the target with the dry stick, it breaks easily, which was my fault. Moistening the stick helps, but it still breaks eventually with this method. When used as directed it's fine.

Not to good left black marks on skin and tip broke off

Easy to use product with good instructions for safe usage.

Too complicated for something simple. I only wanted the wooden tipped silver nitrate sticks to deal with a small granulation at the edge of a fingernail.

nada que decir excelente, con mucha precaucion, hice un pequeºo agujero en esparadrapo librando la berruga y protegiendo la piel sin problemas

ottimo

Habe die Stifte früher in HH in der Apotheke gekauft, leider werden die in Deutschland nicht mehr über die Apotheke Vertrieben. Bringe mir immer welche aus Frankreich mit. Bei Fersen Rissen (Hornhaut) und Riss/Schnitt Verletzung sehr hilfreich, weil sich die Haut innerhalb von kurzer zeit zusammenzieht (stringierende Wirkung). Und ja die brechen leicht ab, aber das liegt am Mineral und wahr schon immer so.

No vale. Lo unico q hace es causar manchas en la piel q tardan diss en desaparecer. Para nada eliminan las verrugas

Molto itile
