Do you do hard skin and corn removal?

This involves the podiatrist removing your hard skin with a sterile scalpel blade (not recommended to be done by yourself at home). The podiatrist has had years of training to know how much skin can be safely removed without causing discomfort. Any corns will be removed by using the scalpel but with a different technique called enucleation. After both types of removal, the area(s) will be smoothed with a mechanical file. If any corns have been painful prior to treatment the area will be offloaded with a pad to prevent further pressure to the area, making it comfortable to walk on.
