Feet care at home for female representatives is quite easy, but it takes time, effort, certain knowledge and skills. The pedicure machine is one of the devices that solve the problem of rough skin. How to choose it and best use it, we will tell you in this article.

There can be many problems with the skin of the feet and nails. These are ordinary calluses, and ingrown nails, and corns, and rough heels, and even warts. A pedicure machine does not solve all of these problems, but it certainly can significantly alleviate the condition of the skin. This tool looks like a scraper with a blade. It is quite easy to use, it cuts off unnecessary rough dry skin from calluses and heels.

On the modern market, the device is sold in the form of many models with different lengths and thicknesses., with different blade and design. Most often, the machine comes with a grinding file and a set of replaceable blades as a gift.

A machine can save you many foot problems, but only if you use it correctly. Below we present you with a short instruction.

• Preparing feet at home. The feet must first be prepared by steaming the skin on them. If you don't have salt for steaming your feet in a foot bath, you can use regular baking soda. A hydrogel does the job best, but again, only if you have one at home. The procedure will take 20 minutes.In the presence of especially dense and rough tissues on the skin, before soaking, it is necessary to apply a cream to these places.
• Instrument preparation. This whole stage consists only in the correct fixation of the blade on the machine. The blade is pressed against the retainer and snaps into place. This also includes the stage of tool processing if, besides you, someone else uses it.
• Antiseptic treatment of feet. This is done so that an accidental cut does not introduce an infection into the scratch.
• Convenient foot placement. It is very important. The razor should be at a 45 degree angle to the surface of the foot. At this angle, you must begin to slowly cut off the skin. It is necessary to take a position in which it would be easy for you to reach the entire surface of the foot. The skin should be cut off without pressure, with light movements, gradually.

• Machining of corns. After you have cut away the hardened tissue, proceed with the processing of the corns. The skin from them must be cut off separately and very carefully, pulling it as much as possible. At the slightest discomfort, redness, you should stop working. Do not under any circumstances lead to bleeding, the wound will then hurt for a very long time. It is better to underdo it than to overdo it.
• Processing with a sanding file. This is required in order to remove all the roughness and unevenness of the skin.
• Moisturizes and soothes the skin. The performed procedure is an experienced stress for the skin, so after it you need to do a foot bath with oils or herbal decoctions.
• Application of the cream. Feet should be lubricated with a moisturizer with a high percentage of fat.

First of all, one must well understand that the use of the machine is not a panacea for all skin diseases on the legs. It only works well for removing horny skin and dry calluses. And for the best result, you will need more than one session, but 2 or even 3 with some frequency. It's important not to overdo it. Too worn out skin will acquire increased sensitivity, and will be susceptible to mechanical injury.

After completing the procedure, it is necessary not only to rinse the machine, but also to disinfect it. You need to disassemble it and follow the procedure with each of its details. At home, alcohol or another similar liquid is quite suitable for this. It is important to wipe the machine dry after rinsing.

First you need to know what the device looks like. It consists of three parts: a holder head, a blade and a handle. It should be noted that such a machine is only suitable for processing horny skin, it cannot be used for other purposes.

Below is a list of firms that produce machine tools, and their brief characteristics.

Before you start working with a pedicure machine, it is important to know that it only carries out "cosmetic repair" of the skin of the feet.At the same time, calluses and corns will soon appear again, since the reason for their appearance lies in the medical field. The machine is a salvation for those who have moderately rough skin, which sometimes you want to "shed" in order to feel lightness in your legs.

There are quite a few opponents of using the machine. Some refer to the fact that they were unable to "fill their hand" and cut their heels, others that such procedures are addictive to the skin, after which other procedures become useless. Be that as it may, caution and accuracy in this matter, as in any other, has not been canceled. This procedure can always be gradually abandoned at any time.

Nevertheless, the processing of heels with a machine is gaining more and more adherents every year. Many users described that now there is no need to go to the salons and spend money on the road and the work of the master. Learning the technique is not difficult at all, you just need patience and perseverance. Most of the girls are happy that if a date suddenly "turns up", then you can not be nervous and do not jerk the master, who has everything busy for a week in advance.
