What tool is used to remove heavy calluses?

Manual removal involves tools like foot files, pumice stones, and electric callus removers that physically buff away the layer of rough skin. Both methods vary in strength (more on that soon) and in some cases can be used in conjunction with each other.

What dissolves a callus?

The acid content in apple cider vinegar can soften the hard skin of a callus. Mix together a solution of four parts water and one part apple cider vinegar and soak your callus for about 20 minutes. When you remove your skin from this soak, you may be able to better peel a layer or two of the callus off.

Is there a way to permanently remove calluses?

Some calluses need permanent removal by a minimally invasive in-office procedure in which the underlying area of bony pressure is reduced. This often requires no stiches and most patients are in regular shoes shortly afterwards.

How do you get rid of calluses overnight?

Skin-softening creams: try applying a healthy amount of moisturizing cream or petroleum jelly (eg. vaseline) to callused areas and leave on your feet overnight. This can either prevent the skin from drying out or soften the calluses.
