<p>A hand held device for removing hard skin from calluses comprises a barrel 1 enclosing a fluid reservoir, a dispenser applicator 3 at one end for dispensing fluid from the reservoir and applying it to the skin to be treated, and at the other end a cutting head 2 having a base 8 and several tubular cutting elements 10 for scraping away hard skin softened by the fluid. The cutting head preferably has two or more cutting elements having a substantially annular (ring shaped) cutting edge that are mounted at an inclined plane to the skin contact plane. For more than two cutting elements they are preferably mounted in staggered rows to form the cutting head. The delivery means for the skin treatment fluid, which may be a softening fluid, or hydrating gel, is preferably a roller ball applicator.</p> |
