MD Podiatrist Discusses Medical Pedicures 

A medical pedicure (sometimes called a “medi-pedi”) differs from a regular pedicure in several ways. A foot specialist performs a medical pedicure rather than a traditional pedicurist. It is geared toward preventing infection by using sterile tools and being mindful of health issues affecting feet.

“A medical pedicure is great for people with complex foot issues or health problems and for people with trouble trimming their nails and calluses. The podiatrist and nail techs can advise you on any issues present, says Dan Michaels, DPM.
