– KART PODOLOGY Pédicure
A hypoallergenic cushioning material used in chiropody and podiatry to reduce pressure and friction on a sensitive area of the foot. Placed around a corn, callus or irritated area, it prevents contact with footwear and allows the tissue to heal.
Natural merino wool felt. Merino wool comes from selected breeds of sheep: its fibres are finer and softer, and its air pockets are smaller, giving it a supple cushioning effect that does not flatten with use.
Hypoallergenic adhesive backing: the material stays firmly in place whilst worn and can be removed without leaving any marks on the skin. It can be cut to size with scissors, allowing the shape to be adapted to each specific area.

How to use
Cut out the desired shape and size — usually a ring or horseshoe shape with an opening that matches the lesion exactly. Clean and degrease the skin, remove the protective film from the adhesive side, then apply the material so that the area to be relieved remains within the opening, without coming into contact with it.
Replace the dressing as soon as it comes away, becomes saturated or loses its thickness.
Precautions

Do not apply to broken, infected or inflamed skin.
In cases of diabetes, circulatory disorders or neuropathy, the decision to use this product must be made by a podiatrist.
