Are there any risks associated with removing calluses?

Carla Kay (Celebrity Manicurist) gives expert video advice on: What is a 'callous'?; How should a callous be removed?; Are there any risks associated with removing calluses? and more...

There are a lot of risks when removing callouses. If you remove too much callous on your foot, it's going to be excruciatingly painful, you're not going to be able to walk on that foot. I had somebody that over-applied a product on their callous, and it almost burnt it, so you need to be very careful. Do not remove your callous - use over the counter diabetic creams that are medicated and specifily for this purpose.
