Have you ever used those home wart removers?

The kind that freezes the wart off. Did it hurt? Have you ever used it on your face?

I used one a few years ago on my arm and it hurt like ****! Today my doctor told me I could use it on my face, but I'm afraid to. I have had a thing 'frozen' off my arm at the doctor's office and it didn't hurt much at all so I don't know why the home wart freezer would hurt so much.

    The home wart remover kits do NOT work. I've had my share of warts on my fingers and toes (ugh disgusting -_-...) and the only thing that works is the dry ice treatment or the liquid nitrogen at the dermotoligists'. The kits never ever worked for me, not even those nasty smelling gels and things. You just gotta overpay the darn doctors to zap those suckers off =P

    Make sure your home wart kit says it's okay to use on your face if you do choose to use it, though. Mine said never use it on soft skin ie. the face, but I don't know that might've just been the one I had.

    Good luck! ^_^
