Carnation Corn Caps Plasters are an over-the-counter medicated corn removal treatment. A standard box contains 5 medicated plasters, each equipped with a therapeutic center ring.
Applied directly to the skin, adults and teenagers use them for the painless removal of hard corns on toes and feet, while protecting the surrounding area from painful shoe pressure.
Corns form when skin thickens into a dense, painful core due to friction and pressure from tight footwear. Carnation Corn Caps use a dual-action mechanism to resolve them:
Active Ingredient (Salicylic Acid 40%): The central medicated ring contains high-strength Salicylic Acid, a keratolytic agent that breaks down and softens the hardened layers of skin forming the corn's core.
Protective Ring Cushion: A soft felt ring surrounds the medicated center, immediately relieving pressure and friction from footwear so you can walk comfortably during treatment.
🚨 Critical Safety Warning: Do NOT use if you have diabetes or severe circulation issues.
People with diabetes, severe peripheral arterial disease, or nerve damage (neuropathy) in their feet must NOT use salicylic acid plasters.
Salicylic acid can cause slow-healing skin ulcers, severe infections, or nerve complications. Consult a podiatrist or doctor for professional foot care instead.
Healthy Skin Notice: Apply the medicated ring strictly on top of the corn core only. Avoid contacting the healthy skin surrounding the corn, as salicylic acid can cause redness, peeling, or chemical burning on normal skin.
Do Not Use on Broken Skin: Do NOT use on broken, infected, cut, or reddened skin, or on moles, birthmarks, or soft corns between toes.
External Foot Use Only: Designed strictly for application on foot skin.
Clean & Dry: Wash the foot thoroughly with soap and water, then dry the skin completely.
Peel: Remove the backing paper from the plaster.
Position: Center the medicated red ring directly over the core of the hard corn.
Secure: Wrap the adhesive side straps securely around the toe or foot skin to hold the pad firmly in place.
Change Frequency: Replace the plaster every 2 days with a fresh one until the corn is ready to be gently rubbed away (maximum treatment duration is usually 10 to 14 days).
Carnation Corn Caps are generally well-tolerated when positioned accurately, but minor side effects can include:
Temporary whitening or softening of the skin directly under the medicated ring.
Mild redness, stinging, or skin irritation if the salicylic acid touches surrounding healthy skin.
How do I remove the corn once treatment is complete?
After using the plasters for a few days, the corn will turn white and soften. Soaking your foot in warm water will allow you to gently lift or rub away the softened corn core using a clean towel or pumice stone. Never cut or pick at corns with sharp objects.
Can I bathe or shower while wearing a plaster?
Yes, but try to avoid prolonged soaking or direct water pressure on the toe to keep the adhesive from slipping off early. If the plaster gets loose, replace it with a fresh one.
How should I store these plasters?
Keep the plasters inside their original box in a cool, dry place strictly below 25°C or 30°C, away from direct heat and moisture, and keep completely out of reach of children.
