Callus Treatments

Callus is a condition in which the skin becomes thickened due to repeated pressure or friction, commonly occurring on the soles or heels. It is frequently seen in individuals who stand or walk for long periods, wear inappropriate footwear, or have biomechanical foot abnormalities. If left untreated, calluses can become painful, crack, or lead to skin breakdown especially in diabetic patients, where complications may be more serious.

At Footcare Clinic, callus treatment is delivered through a safe, systematic, and cause-based approach, focusing not only on removal but also on long-term prevention.
