Dr. Scholl's Duragel Callus Remover 12 Count

I never do product reviews. Nothing has been so extraordinary that I felt compelled to write one. Most products live up to why I bought them or may not have been great in my opinion and thus not worthy of a review one way or another. But this callous removal product exceeded my expectations by a long shot. I purchased the product and applied the pad. I read about people who had difficulty keeping the pad on, so I used surgical tape to wrap around it as the callous was on the lower side part of my foot. I replaced it daily, but by the third day, I tried the product without the surgical tape. The adhesive pad stuck extremely well and was much more convenient to use without the surgical tape. I would replace the pad daily and I went through two boxes before eventually being able to peel the softened callous from my foot. The adhesive was on a part of the foot where you would think it would eventually fall off from sweat but it stayed on firmly. I only replaced the product daily because there were no instructions regarding how often to remove and replace the pad (which is my only criticism of the products directions). But overall after replacing daily and using 7 pads, a painful and annoying callous is gone. Great product!

I had a corn for about a year before I decided to do something about it. My dermatologist said she could cut it out or I could use Salysilic Acid pads. I opted for the pads. It took 2 boxes and about 3 weeks for the corn to be completely gone. As it began to shrink, I cut the pads so I could get more use out of them, and then I put a typical Band-Aid type bandage over it to keep it in place. Slow and steady and patience, but the corn is gone using these pads. Some people say the pads don't stay in place. In my experience the type of shoe or sandal I wore made the difference. Wearing socks helped it stay put. After a shower, it always moved around so I replaced it with a fresh pad. It will do the trick but don't expect an overnight miracle.

Had a callus on my foot that drove me crazy for years. Used the product as directed and within 14 days the callus was gone!!

It works but it does not stay in place. I used them for the bump on the outer edge of my big toe. Had to use a couple, not a big deal because it does say that in the instructions, but it does not stay in place. I had to wrap it with Band-Aids to secured in place and even that didn’t hold it more than a day, but that being said it did remove my calluses.

Easy to use and it works

Worked great! Took about 10 days to completely remove the callus. It has not returned.

A pretty decent callus removal method for a great price, as it will get the job of eliminating annoying or obstructive calluses done in time, just with a few caveats. The strength and effectiveness of it could definitely be better, as the amount of treatments/bandages needed for one spot can vary greatly, from anywhere between 1 to 4 depending on the callus itself. With each one needing to be on for 48 hours, with another 48 hour period needed before you're recommend to put another one on, at worst (4 treatments), that could be more than 2 straight weeks before seeing the results that you're looking for. And the bandage itself, while thin, comfortable, and unobtrusive, is a complete joke when it comes to staying in place, its stickiness, and its durability. Whether you're up and moving around on your feet all day, or doing something as simple as taking a shower or two with them on, they will lose their adhesive properties extremely easily and could end up falling out early as a result. I often end up having to wrap tape around my foot just to ensure that the bandages can be where I want them to be for the full 48 hour period, and you probably will face a similar scenario. Overall, not a bad purchase, considering the value bundle offering that you get from this, but from the bandages themselves to their strength, be prepared to face an annoyance or two trying to get these calluses out with this removal pack.

Using these on my son who is 18 nonverbal autistic currently has a callus on both ball of his feet. This was recommended and so far it is helping it heal almost to the point that it’s going to be easier to prevent surgery.
