General information about the treatment of core calluses
Methods for removing callus
You can get rid of calluses using a hardware pedicure. Using special equipment, a specialist carefully removes the tumor. The risk of damage to surrounding tissues and the likelihood of developing inflammation or infection are minimized. Other treatment methods include:
- Laser removal. In this case, a laser is used that destroys the callus, including the shaft. This is a quick and virtually painless method, which, due to the complete destruction of the tumor, helps prevent relapses.
- Cryodestruction. This method involves freezing the callus using liquid nitrogen. In this case, the neoplasm is destroyed, which makes it easy to remove it later.
- Electrocoagulation. This method uses high frequency current. This is a safe and effective method that allows you to get rid of callus without leaving scars.
- Radio wave therapy. A modern and minimally invasive technique that allows you to remove calluses using short radio waves. This is an absolutely painless method with minimal risk of complications and a quick recovery period.
How to remove a callus is decided by the doctor based on diagnostic data and the individual characteristics of the patient’s body.

About the disease
Calluses not only cause discomfort and pain when walking, but in some cases lead to various complications.
They differ from ordinary ones in that they have a characteristic compaction or “core”, which consists of dead skin cells and penetrates deep into its layers.
Corn calluses appear due to constant pressure or friction in a certain area. This often occurs due to biomechanical disorders - problems with the bones of the legs, incorrect placement of the foot when walking or running. In response to constant exposure, the skin on the foot begins to thicken. The result of this is the formation of calluses.
The main factor in the formation of calluses is improperly selected shoes. Excessive friction or pressure on certain areas of the foot is caused by shoes (sneakers, boots) that are too tight.
Other reasons for the formation of neoplasms include skin diseases of the lower extremities.
It is important to remember that not every callus can turn into a core callus. This process depends on many factors, including individual characteristics of the body, skin type and the degree of pressure or friction.
