CPT 17110 - Destruction (eg, laser surgery, electrosurgery, cryosurgery, chemosurgery, surgical curettement), of benign lesions other than skin tags or cutaneous vascular proliferative lesions; up to 14 lesions

No code for the paring of warts. Ultimately you destroyed it. You can only bill the 17110 x 1 unit.
