Overview & Procedure

What the treatment is and how it's performed

What it is

Hard skin and corns are caused by pressure and friction, often from shoes or uneven load. A corn has a hard core that presses on the tissue beneath and can hurt when you walk. The practitioner removes the hard skin and the core carefully with a scalpel and file, and gives advice on pressure relief and shoes. The price is per corn.

  1. The practitioner examines your feet and where the pressure comes from.
  2. The hard skin and the core are removed carefully with a scalpel and file.
  3. The area can be relieved with a pad or a plaster.
  4. You get advice on shoes, pressure relief and foot care at home.

The treatment takes 45–60 minutes.

Experience & Recovery

Pain level, downtime and healing

The treatment usually does not hurt. Many people feel relief straight away.

  • Rare: slight bleeding or tenderness where the core was.
  • Very rare: infection.

  • Wear shoes with plenty of room for your toes.
  • Use the pressure relief you have been given.
  • Apply cream for hard skin to your feet every day.

No downtime.

Expectations & Safety

Who it's for and safety information

  • If you have diabetes, reduced sensation or poor circulation in your feet, you should see an authorised foot therapist.
  • Corns come back if the pressure continues. The right shoes and pressure relief help.
  • Do not cut corns yourself, and take care with corn plasters that contain acid.

  • Hard skin under the feet and on the heels.
  • Corns that hurt.

  • Wounds, infection or eczema on the feet.
  • Diabetes with wounds, reduced sensation or poor circulation in the feet. An authorised foot therapist is then the right choice.

Contact a doctor if you get a wound that does not heal, or redness, swelling, warmth, pus or increasing pain in the foot. If you have diabetes, a wound on the foot must be examined quickly.

Many people need treatment every six to twelve weeks, depending on how fast the skin grows back.
