Salicylic acid softens and dissolves the hardened skin of calluses and corns, facilitating easier removal and reducing discomfort. It promotes exfoliation of dead skin cells.

Salicylic acid, a keratolytic medication, works by increasing the amount of moisture in the skin and dissolving the substance that causes skin cells to stick together. This process softens and loosens the hardened skin of calluses and corns, allowing for their gradual removal through exfoliation. The softening effect facilitates physical removal and reduces pain associated with pressure on the affected area.
