CORN - Laser Treatment

What is it?

Also known as calluses, it is mostly seen in areas of continued pressure such as the top of ankle, side of the feet, between the toes, and also seen in areas under continuous weight.
Corn is actually a thickened part of the skin caused by a medical condition called hyperkeratosis on those areas.
For many people the most common cause of developing recurrent corn is ill fitting shoes.
It looks like a hard raised skin with inflammation around it. Its very painful, and sometimes it gets difficult to walk if it's in your feet.
Continuous movement of corn area tend to make it more infectious and it grows in size and becomes painful. So, it’s very important to remove it as soon as possible.

Corn Treatments at Skinfinity Clinic?

1. Electrocautery- removal of corn by cautery is done to burn out the edges of corn that aids in proper healing of corn from the depth of infected area.

2. Co2 Laser- laser light gives an instant relief to the patient by targeting and removing dead cells from the corn that accelerates healing of corn.

Avoid Self-Treatment

Sometimes, we observe people applying corn caps or certain acidic medications to remove the corn. Many times this causes allergy in the surrounding skin leading to secondary infection, inflammation and pain. Doctor’s advice is to avoid self treatment methods to prevent these side effects that require long courses of medications to recover the skin.
