does this work on calluses on ball of foot?

That is exactly what I got it for. Kinda gross, but I swear it shreds the dead skin off like Parmesan cheese! I get a painful callus on ball of my right foot during boots season: this thing takes it down like a champ! Also great on tough heel edges!

My room mate is a RN and is constantly on her feet. Over the years she has developed a few really big calluses. I used the regular blue roller on her and it took sometime to get them down but it did work. Once I got the super course rollers it took those bad boys right down. I just have the dry cracked feet, no calluses. And it works amazingly! I prefer the super course because by the time I have time to use it my feet are pretty bad. The blue rollers are great for keep up as long as you use it every couple days. Follow up with a good lotion and you're set. If you're feet are horrible they sell the callus remover used at salons on here. Use that first and then follow up with this to smooth and soften. We had to use that on a man's foot. It was narly! Let me know if you have anymore questions

No it will only stretch the width around the ball of the foot and the the toes

You'll find your callouses will disappear after a few days. I suffered from them quite a bit on my heels and would spend copious amounts of time trying to grind them down with a pumice. They would also crack and hurt. What I discovered was that, after a week or so of using this once or twice a day, they were gone and my heels were soft. However, if you stop using it, your feet will revert back.

It is seriously like a cheese grater...I have the roughest, thickest callouses on my feet and it instantly turns it into a fine powder. Its not a razor blade like the callous removers but a more effective tool to remove the thickest callouses and creates instantly soft heels.

As far as I know it does not. I do like it though. It is a drying agent. I was using Polysporin powder but they took it off the market. I decided to try thisinstead. I just put atibiotic creme on the wound, apply BFI lightly, then a bandage. It is good for between the toes.

I use the foot creams after using the callus remover to soften my feet. There are many on the market but my favorites are Burt's Bees and Heal Genius. Just don't use the creams before using the Emjoi, it will defeat the purpose. I hope this helps.

It will help with the callus areas for sure but I'm not sure about corn areas

For some reason my right foot tends to get thicker callouses built up around the edge of the heel much more so than my left foot...when I used it (I've only done this once, but am now getting ready to do it again) it did absolutely perfect on my left foot, and took an estimated 95% off my right one. Not completely, but so close that it took minimum effort to get my right one as perfect as my left one. I strongly encourage you and anyone else reading this to try it for yourselves so you can really see what this product is capable of! It is well worth the money.

I don't think it would work to remove callouses and that kind of dead skin. Try this: Microplane Colossal Pedicure Rasp. I haven't tried it yet but the reviews were great. Mine is supposed to be delivered today.

It does not. I put it on a pair of boots and it was very ineffective. The problem is that shoes flex when you walk in them. In any spots there is flex the product will flake off and not work at all. Also if your shoes touch anything (just from common movement) it will brush off quite easily in those spots. On my boots (which were much stiffer on the outside then your tennis shoes will likely be) any spots that flexed were no longer waterproof within 2-3 days, and any spots that brushed anything took about a week to 10 days for the product to be ineffective.Also as mentioned by another user it will leave a cloudy white residue on anything it is applied to.

Yes, I used this product on my slightly torn meniscus and after a couple of days I think it actually worked! I am purchasing a 2nd bottle.

This is a great product. I've never used it on calluses on my fingers. But it should work as well as on my heels. I agree with the other poster that you would still need to exfoliate the area.

The best way to remove calluses on the bottoms of your feet is to use a callus remover gel and a cheap pumice stone, both available at Sally beauty or other nail tech suppliers

Yes. The oils in it make the foot soft.This product is for more than fungus and athlete's foot. It helps with dry skin and swelling too.

My understanding is that the gel is applied to the pads, first, Then the pad , gel side towards the skin , is applied to the callous.GOod luck, This stuff did not work at all for me. :(Good Luck, DR

With consistent use it works on calluses. It is a medium roughness. It is very easy to use as it is big and fits your hand. It is also the best stone I have ever used.
