hi there,
i think you should tell her to go to the doctor.
it is not bad as most women develop small warts as they grow older. well it is bad but then going to the dermatologist can help her.
i know a lot of people had their facial warts removed. they had them cauterized and she should see the doctor soon while they are still small so that way it is easier to remove and also it will be cheaper.

I just heard earlier in a radio station that features natural way of healing. They featured cabbage. According to the station, cabbage can be used in treating warts. Just pound cabbage leaves and put it on warts. I don't know if this will really helps in treating warts.

I don“t think that anyone needs tips in this case. Warts are caused by viruses and she must see a doctor. It could be nothing and it could be potentially dangerous if she does not do something about it. The tip I could give you is to go with her so that she is less afraid. Take care!

First of all: warts are caused by a virus and if so it means the virus is there and you infect yourself.
I would advice to visit a doctor and get rid of them as soon as possible. In only less cases they will disappear by itself in some time but I would not take that risk.
Did anything change with your friend that this suddenly popped up? (life cercumstances or..). Warts grew very quickly so I would not take the chance and remove them before they can. Might be it has to be done 3-4 times to get the virus out.
Warts are also tumors, so might be necessary to let a doctor check out if they are "just" warts, harmless or worse. If your friend is afraid of the doctor go together. Of course it's up to your friend but I think it's a wise to be sure in this case to prefend worser.

Your friend should see a doctor. Small flat warts are usually not dangerous, but it's better to have it checked. Since it's a virus that can develop more easily with weakened immune system, it can be good to boost immunity with healthy foods, vitamins. It's very important not to scratch the warts, because that way they can spread to a bigger area.

She should see a doctor, it is her FACE we are talking about, after all. One should not play games when it comes to ANY part of the body, let alone the FACE. If she does not like what one doctor tells her, then tell her to get a second opinion, and a 3rd and a 4th if need be.
That being said, I would try some witchhazel. Put some on a cottonball and wipe the face with it. Do this about 5 times a day, once every few hours.
