There is a range of alternative treatment available for it, including cryotherapy, chemical cauterisation, curettage, electrodessication and laser removal. However, a majority of these treatments can leave scars or may provide only temporary relief.

The improvement was assessed through photographs taken in subsequent follow-up visits. The case was monitored further for a period of six months without any recurrence.
