When should you use Elastoplast Corn Pads?
Elastoplast Corn Pads help relieve pain associated with corns, calluses, and sensitive areas of the feet. Thanks to their protective pad, they reduce the friction and pressure that cause discomfort, particularly between the toes or on pressure points. Soft and discreet, they adhere effectively to the skin while being gentle on sensitive skin.
Corns, also known as calluses, are localized thickening of the skin’s surface layer. They usually appear as a result of repeated pressure from shoes or certain foot deformities. Although they are usually benign, they can affect daily comfort and cause pain when walking.
These pads provide immediate relief by creating an effective barrier between the skin and sources of friction. Their contoured shape offers long-lasting protection for sensitive areas while minimizing irritation caused by repeated movement.
Designed for daily use, these patches stay securely in place thanks to their high-performance adhesive. Their flexible texture conforms to the contours of the foot toensure optimal comfort throughout the day, even in closed-toe shoes.
Easy to apply and remove, they offer a practical solution for protecting corns and calluses from external mechanical stress. By reducing friction and pressure, they help preserve skin integrity and improve walking comfort day after day.

Our advice and expert opinions from the pharmacy
Unsightly and painful, corns are very common. When shoes are too tight, there is prolonged and repeated friction. The skin thickens in the affected area and hardens, which is what forms the corn. To treat corns, there are dressings that provide relief by protecting the skin from friction. They offer temporary relief and gradually thin the corn by removing a small amount of dead skin.
The main cause of cornsandcallusesis repeated friction between the skin and the shoe, but foot deformities can also lead to the development of corns. Indeed, an unbalanced foot or an angled forefoot causes friction thatpromotes the formation of corns.
Friction and/or excessive pressure on the bones of the foot cause the skin to thicken by stimulating the production ofkeratin, the primary protein in the epidermis.
In addition to thepainandthickening of the skincaused by corns and calluses, they can also lead to limping, a shift in weight distribution that can then lead to bone and joint disorders, and suppuration resulting from infection of the bursa located under the callus or in thearea of friction.
