In the professional pedicure eliminate the fact that you have to soak in water for an hour or more his feet, and then ablating the cornea with a small knife. All in all, tedious and expensive.
After many attempts, I have developed the optimal treatment method I find:
1. A good foot cream (eg Celyoung) on the heels Apply before going to bed in a good layer thickness. Guideline in the initial treatment about 1.5 cm from the tube. But Grob evenly distributed, not rub. Now with cling film (!!) wrap (ie twice around the heel). Then a sock over it, so that the film does not go down overnight. Who does not like sleeping with socks (like me), just take old socks with holes and cut off the toe. In this way, the toes do not feel "concentrated" on (I can not suffer).
Leave on for at least overnight if much cornea, possibly also the whole day. Check that the film is still sitting well.
2. After removing the film, the entire cornea is quite to very soft. Who has a good method to remove these now soft cornea, it may now do.
Remaining cream with toilet paper or paper towel to wipe.
My method is very effective and efficient, but is only suitable for people with a little courage and a lot (!!) sensitivity:
I take a snap-off of a carpet knife (ie the ones you can break off 10 times or so). Now I use the bare blade on the entire width of the affected area at an angle of 30 ° to the skin and gently scrape the skin off. Important: do not overlap Proposal has no lateral movement of the blade, but cockroaches !! The blade should not be too sharp, so either buy a cheap model, or the blade to make a little example duller with a grindstone. And run the whole thing very slowly so you can stop quickly if you cut yourself but once (but this is then only a small section (not worse than the crack itself)). Basically, it's like a shave with a classic razor. Important: the skin needs to be quite soft, only goes skin by gently scraping gone !!!
For people who do not trust, the following method (which I use in the 2nd step for surfacing):
After many bad investments I have discovered as the product Callus "Ped Egg". Easy to use, clean and safe (only for thick layers of the cornea takes me too long). Everything else can be against it tap into the ton !!
Note, use this rasp only on soft skin, otherwise it will quickly dull (like all other Hornhautraspeln also)!
3. The skin is dry again, and then the game starts all over again. Therefore, once a week, repeat step 1, but with much less cream (about 0.5cm per heel), and then only with the feinraspeln PedEgg.
I had over 20 years to fight with cracks on the heels, because as I was able to run for a week only on tiptoe. I also put a lot of money in professional pedicure.
With Celyoung, PedEgg and above instructions I no longer need it.
PS. The Celyoung socks can save, because the sock still takes a lot of cream on, is totally messed up after some time, and the skin is not soft enough, there is still too much air rankommt.
