Corn Caps 40% Salicylic Acid Plasters - 1 Pack of 4 Plasters
Tight footwear, extensive walking, and prolonged standing often result in the buildup of hard, hyperkeratotic skin layers known as corns or calluses, which can make every step excruciatingly painful. Corn Caps provide a concentrated dermatological treatment. Each adhesive plaster contains a potent 40% Salicylic Acid paste located perfectly in the center of a protective felt ring. This targets the dead skin cell structures directly, softening the corn for easy removal while shielding the surrounding healthy skin from pressure.
How to Use / Operate
Soak the affected foot in warm water for 5 minutes, then dry thoroughly. Remove the backing paper and place the felt ring directly over the corn. Secure the adhesive straps firmly. Leave in place for 2 days. Repeat with a new plaster until the corn is easily removed (usually maximum 3 plasters).
Frequently Asked Questions
What are Corn Caps used for?
They are medicated plasters used to safely dissolve and remove painful, hard skin corns on the toes and soles of the feet.
Can diabetics use these plasters?
No, individuals with diabetes or severe circulatory issues should not use high-strength salicylic acid products without strict medical supervision due to the risk of foot ulcers.
Important Clinical Considerations
Do not apply to healthy, normal skin or over broken, infected wounds. If severe burning or inflammation occurs around the corn, remove the plaster immediately and wash the foot.
