Main causes of calluses & corns
Ill-fitting or tight shoes are one of the leading causes of callus and corn formation. Continuous rubbing creates thickened skin, especially on the heels, toes, or sides of the feet.
Standing or walking for long hours puts extra pressure on certain parts of the foot. Over time, this pressure can cause hard skin to build up, often needing professional callus removal for relief.
Conditions like bunions or hammertoes change the way your feet bear weight, making corns and calluses more likely. In some cases, corn toe treatment is the best way to reduce pain and prevent recurrence.
Runners, dancers, and athletes often develop calluses from repeated impact and friction. While sometimes protective, they can become painful and require podiatry-led callus treatment to stay comfortable.
Walking barefoot on hard or uneven surfaces can cause skin to thicken as a natural defense. Over time, this thick skin can turn into stubborn calluses that only professional callus removal can fully address.
Jobs that require standing all day or wearing safety boots can increase the risk of corns and calluses. Regular corn removal keeps your feet healthy and stops pain from interfering with daily work.
Everyone’s feet are different. If you roll your feet inward or outward when walking, certain areas may take on more pressure, leading to hard skin and corns. Identifying this early helps prevent repeat problems.
How we treat calluses and corns
We use a range of tailored approaches to ensure your feet get the expert care they deserve. Here are the four core services we offer:
Corn/Callus Removal
Precise and professional callus removal to gently smooth thickened skin and help maintain long-term comfort, an essential step in effective podiatry callus treatment.
Custom Orthotics
Custom foot inserts that align the foot and gently redistribute pressure, effectively preventing recurring corns and keeping calluses at bay naturally.
Laser Therapy
Low-level laser treatment that reduces inflammation, promotes healing, and supports healthier skin, especially useful for stubborn or painful corn removal cases.
Pressure Mapping & More
We use pressure mapping and gait analysis to find callus hotspots. With stretching plans and tailored corn treatment, we help prevent future flare-ups.

How many treatments will I need before my feet feel comfortable again?

Your podiatrist will give tailored advice, which may include footwear changes, pressure mapping, or orthotics. These steps reduce the friction that causes hard skin, helping your results last longer.
