You can use the scrapings as a cheese flavoured pasta topping. They're much lower in calories compared to parmesan

Hard skin when there is no systemic pathology is almost always due to mechanical causes. Doesn't matter your age, skin behaves differently when get older and there are multiple ways to deal with it, orthotics and footwear being the simplest. I use dermal fillers to replace the fat lose. There are lots of options.

There are no systematic diseases. How can you change the mechanical causes once you are the wrong side of fifty.
Am I wrong to assume that most people over 50 have a degree of hard skin issues which is normal?

Usually yes. it might require changes to footwear, orthotics or surgery. Occasionally there are systematic disease, smoking and genetic factors that have an influence but at least one of those can be addressed relatively easily, the others can be influenced with treatment. Hard skin is usually a result of excess pressure or shearing stress on the skin, the mechanical causes can be addressed by changing the mechanics.

Usually the problem arises because of inappropriate fit of footwear however it can be because of foot deformity or the functioning of the foot relative to the leg. Everyone is different.

You sure they don't? They do sell consumables for most of their products, online or by phone.

I have been to one. He removed lots of hard skin and said I am walking fine (on my feet all day n work)
I still get hard skin but I deal with it. The same way I get my haircut and look after my nails.
Are you saying hard skin can be prevented ?

Amazing, knocked out all me itches in one go. Lost a ball in the process, but still got one left

I have hard skin on my feet (psoriasis related I suspect) and bought the Lidl one a few months back - it's wonderful. The only thing is that the sandpaper rollers wear out after a while and of course Lidl don't sell replacement rollers. I'll get one of these as you can buy replacement rollers.

Pretty sure blokes don't need these.
Unless "bloke" wears a dress to work.

It removes hard skin from the feet, it's not a hair remover. And some blokes like to remove body hair anyway. :smiley:

Good deal. Micro pedi have been about for a few yrs but now that there is a specific male version, the device is a lot cheaper. ?

Do you need to apply some lotion or what before use this hard skin remover? and this one is rechargeable right.
