Curacorn®

What is Curacorn

Curacorn® is a revolutionary technique using a sterile gel injection to cushion painful corns or pressure areas in the foot from inside the skin. The procedure can eliminate the need for bulky padding or frequent visits to your podiatrist to have corn or calluses cut away.

HOW MANY TREATMENT‘S ARE NEEDED?

The majority of patients see an improvement after just 1 treatment, some may require more than that.

Your individual treatment plan will be explained by your podiatrist during your initial assessment.

DOES THIS TREATMENT WORK ON ALL CORNS?

All corns or calluses form as a result of pressure from within theskin where the boney structures

 below rub the inner layers of the dermis. By injecting a sterile cushion between these layers, Curacorn can eliminate the skin’s reaction to the pressure & callus does not form.

HOW LONG DOES THE TREATMENT TAKE?

A Curacorn treatment usually takes the same time as your routine podiatry treatment although larger

areas may require more time. Your podiatrist will discuss your individual requirements during your

assessment.

IS THIS TREAMENT SUCCESSFUL?

Curacorn is used in many countries around the world with high levels of success. It has been shown to

drastically reduce reoccurance of stubborn corns & calluses. Every corn is unique, your podiatrist will discuss what you can expect from your treatment & how much gel will be needed to create a sufficient cushion inside the skin for you. Following Curacorn you will be asked to refrain from putting any pressure on the treated area for 48 hours. Keep the foot dry for 24 hours.

CAN I DRIVE AFTER THE TREATMENT?

A small amount of local anaesthetic will be administered prior to your treatment to ensure

the maximum comfort during the procedure. Driving with anaesthetic in the foot is not

permitted.

WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF CURACORN?

Curacorn can replace the need for padding or toe protectors which are unhygienic & bulky in the

shoes. After treatment your cornmay not form as quickly & coulddisappear all-together. Less podiatry clinic visits for callus removal, less pain, saving you money & time.

CAN UNDER 18‘S HAVE THIS TREATMENT?

Treatment is restricted to patients over 18 years of age unless authorised by a doctor/ consultant.

In patients below 18 the podiatrist will discuss your case with the doctor prior to proceeding.

WHATIS THE COST?

Price will depend on the type of corn or issue you have and the volume of injection, please abook a consultation to discuss the procedure and costs associated.
