I left my liquid wart remover on over night, and it turned my skin white?
Written by admin on Mar 3rd, 2010 | Filed under: wart remover
I applied liquid wart remover on my hand on my wart and 3 other little ones that were just popping up. i fell asleep with it on and when i took it off in the morning the area of my skin that was around the 3 littles ones turn kind of white and and a little tough…. my question is is this bad or normal and will it go back to the regular color,
also how long should i keep the remover on for?
It’s supposed to turn white and rough… try taking en emery board to it, but don’t go overboard or you’ll break the skin. You only want to take off the dead skin on top. Do this every other day until the wart is completely gone, but continue with the wart remover.
thats what any wart remover does, it turns white. just leave a bandaid over it. itll go back to normal color in like i think it was like a week or two after the wart healed.

that is normal. in the end the liquid wart remover does not work. it only has 17% salicylic acid. the best would be to cover the wart with duct tape for 7 days continous. take off duct tape pick or scrub wart until it bleeds. wash off dry and cover up with duct tape again for 7 continous days. this will take about 12 weeks. the area will turn white also

Liquid wart remover is made primarily from salicylic acid. The reson your skin turns white is because the topmost layer is actually disolving. It will go back to normal a few days to a week after you stop using the liquid.
And you should keep it on for however long the instructions say to. Every brand is different.
Though honestly… the liquid stuff doesn’t work very well. I’ve had better luck with the stuff that freezes the wart off.
