Frequently Asked Questions

Is the callus peel safe for sensitive skin?
Yes. We use controlled formulas and gentle techniques to minimise irritation. If your skin is broken or inflamed, we will postpone the peel and focus on a simple tidy.
Can I book this as a standalone service?
This is an add-on to a pedicure only. Please request it when booking your pedicure so we reserve the additional time.
How long do the results usually last?
You will see smoother skin straight away. With good aftercare and sensible footwear, results typically last several weeks. Regular maintenance helps prevent hard build-up returning.
Will it make calluses grow back faster?
No. Callus formation is caused by pressure and friction. Gentle, targeted removal plus moisturising and proper footwear can help slow hard skin build-up over time.
Is it suitable during pregnancy or with diabetes?
Yes, with care. Please tell us before your appointment so we can adapt products and pressure. For complex concerns, we may suggest guidance from your GP or a podiatrist first.
