Callus removal in toenail service refers to the process of eliminating thick, hardened skin or calluses that develop on the toes, particularly around the nail bed. Calluses occur due to excessive pressure, friction, or repetitive rubbing, typically from ill-fitting shoes or improper foot hygiene. The objective of callus removal is to smoothen the skin and alleviate any discomfort or pain caused by the calluses. This can be achieved by various methods, including filing, sanding, or using specialized tools to gently remove the calloused skin. It is important to approach callus removal with care to avoid injury or damage to the surrounding healthy skin and nails.
