Laser removal of callus

There is a huge load on the human foot. Uncomfortable shoes, heavy physical activity (long walking, standing), as well as pose - affect the degree of load and the level of its distribution throughout the foot. In places of excessive congestion or physical friction with shoes, corns appear as a protective reaction of the body.

Corns are of three types:

water callus, formed from physical friction with shoes, as a rule, passes by itself after changing shoes or taking measures to treat it (protection with a patch, treatment with wound healing agents);
dry corn or corns - corn, which is formed due to prolonged rough exposure of shoes to the soles of the feet and foot. Dry calluses occur, as a rule, in places of the greatest protrusion of the joints - on the pads under the fingers, heels, on the fingers;
callus - occurs for the same reason as dry, but has a different structure: the callus has a denser core that goes deep into the skin, which causes inflammation of the surrounding tissues and causes pain.

Callus removal methods

If the water callus passes by itself, then corns and calluses require the intervention of a specialist.

Some corns are easily removed with a hygienic or medical pedicure. While the core callus may require manipulations to remove it.

To remove the core callus, various hardware techniques and surgical intervention are used. One of the most effective and simple solutions is the removal of callus with a laser.

For laser removal of callus, devices with a large wavelength are used that can penetrate the deeper layers of the skin. Under the influence of a light beam, the tissues are heated, the coarsened tissue is separated from the healthy ones, and after the procedure, it is removed. A callus that has undergone laser removal can leave behind a small depression, which is naturally tightened by newly growing healthy tissues.

When should a callus be removed?

It is necessary to contact our Center of the medical network of clinics "Dobrobut" in Kyiv to a specialist regarding the removal of callus if the presence of callus causes pain and discomfort when walking, as well as:

if the tissues in the area of the callus grow and increase in size;
if cracks and bleeding appear in the area of the callus;
if there are concomitant diseases, such as diabetes.
In the medical network of our Dobrobut clinics, during a consultation, a dermatologist will examine and assess the degree of callus ingrowth, as well as select the most effective method for its removal.

Corns cannot be removed if there is:

oncology;

pregnancy;

lactation;

diabetes mellitus in the stage of decompensation.

Benefits of laser corn removal

It is impossible to get rid of the core callus by medical or folk methods. Also, this type of corn cannot be removed at home.

The laser technique for removing callus has several advantages compared to other methods:

manipulation lasts 5-10 minutes;
removal of corns with a laser is painless;
the risk of infection during removal is minimal since the laser beam is disinfectant;
minimal risk of bleeding during the procedure, since natural coagulation of blood vessels, occurs with the help of a laser beam (cauterization, which leads to soldering);
absence of scars after the procedure;
short recovery period;
the cost of the procedure.
