I often tell patients that post bone surgery (something which I generally do not recommend for aesthetic issues except for a few unique cases) range of motion of the toe can be affected, which can lead the force being placed elsewhere on the foot, see the video below to learn more

Nike trainers are a widely popular footwear brand, however, for individuals of Afro-Caribbean descent, particularly women, these sneakers may not be the optimal choice. One of the primary concerns is that Nike sneakers tend to have a narrower design in comparison to other brands such as Adidas. This can pose a problem for individuals with wider feet and lower arches, which are common characteristics among individuals of Afro-Caribbean descent. Nike sneakers have become a cultural icon, worn by people of all races and backgrounds. However, individuals of Afro-Caribbean descent have a special relationship with the brand, and many choose to wear Nike sneakers as a symbol of style, status, and identity. One reason individuals of Afro-Caribbean descent may be drawn to Nike sneakers is that the brand has a long history of marketing to and collaborating with Afro-Caribbean athletes and cultural figures. This has helped to establish Nike as a symbol of excellence and achievement within Afro-Ca...

  I have been honoured to have completed over 370 toe lift procedures and 120 skin surgery procedures to patients from around the UK and France, Belgium, Italy, Switzerland with patients visiting from as far as South Africa! I understand the frustration and self-consciousness that these scars can cause. These raised scars are often the result of the incorrect use of corn plasters and tight footwear, and can be painful and unsightly. They can also lead to social isolation and a reluctance to wear open-toed shoes or go on holiday to warm countries. In many cases, women with these scars do not even show their feet to their partners. It's a absolute honour to be able to help so many women from around the world. My dedication to improving these toe scars has not gone unnoticed, as I now have podiatrists from the UK and USA seeking to learn my innovative techniques. Despite initial skepticism and disparaging comments from my peers, I have persevered in my relentless drive to push the bou...

Hypertrophic scars are a type of scar tissue that form when the body produces an excess of collagen during the healing process (Ogunleye, 2014). They are raised, thick, and there is often a change in colour, and can occur on any part of the body (Ogunleye, 2014). One area where hypertrophic scars are commonly seen is on the tops of toes, particularly among African Caribbean women who have used corn plasters in correctly containing salicylic acid to treat lesions that were not actually corns. This can be classed as burn injury to the dorsum (top of) toes.  A corn is a small, circular patch of thick, hard skin that forms on the tops or sides of the toes or feet.  A corn, also known as a "clavus," "heloma," or "focal intractable plantar hyperkeratosis," is a type of callosity however they should  be distinguished from a callus, which is a more diffuse type of callosity. Thus, a corn is a well-delimited focal area of hyperkeratosis. Corns are caused by repeate...

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 This patient's lesions were all risen and dark, all of the toes have completely changed except one, the patient visited the clinic for top up procedure for one toe. The skin still has not changed to the same colour and tone as the rest of the toes, it takes a little patience! Once the skin on the lesion/ scars are on the same level as the skin on the rest of the toes then it can take another 3-4 months for the toes to recover, it all depends on how long you have had the lesions and how many times you have used corn plaster on your toes.
