Callus Removal

At Bondi Podiatry we treat and remove callus on feet with our Bondi Junction Podiatrists. Our podiatrists will expertly treat callus on feet by removing callous with a scalpel and specialised burrs in our Sydney clinic. Our podiatrist can assess why your skin is thickening and developing callous, and will create a plan with you to reduce the frequency of callous on feet.

What is a callus?

A callus is a portion of skin that has become thickened and often yellowed due to increased friction, pressure, and irritation. This condition is very common on the feet and can cause pain and discomfort.

Callus often forms where skin rubs against bone, footwear, and even the ground. Callus often forms around the bottom of the heels and also under the forefoot.

Callus differs from corns as they are often larger and wider with less-defined edges.

Why see a podiatrist for callus treatment?

It is important to see a podiatrist to manage corns and calluses if you have medical conditions such as diabetes, neuropathy, and poor circulation which may affect your ability to heal. The podiatrist can then safely remove corns and callus with tools such as a scalpel and this can be managed appropriately.

You should not attempt to remove a callus on your feet on your own without a podiatrist due to the risk of infection and poor healing. Podiatrists remove corns and callus routinely with a scalpel and can help you assess how you can reduce the frequency that corns and callus occur. At Bondi Podiatry we also offer medi pedi pamper packs so that you can treat your feet.
