  • What is the cost of different types of corn removal surgery?

    There are various types of corn removal surgeries performed by dermatologists. The specific procedure chosen will depend on the severity, location of the corn, and the recommendation of the medical professionals.

    Here are some common types of corn removal surgery:

    • Excision: This process involves surgically cutting out the corn and its surrounding tissues. It is generally performed under local anaesthesia, and the area is stitched afterwards. On average, the cost of excision corn removal surgery in Chennai can range from Rs.5,000 to Rs.10,000. 
    • Curettage: This surgical procedure involves using a small, spoon-shaped instrument called a curette to scrape away the corn and the thickened skin. It is often performed under local anaesthesia. On average, the curettage corn removal surgery cost in Chennai can range from Rs.5,000 to Rs.15,000. 
    • Laser surgery: In some cases, laser surgery can be utilized to remove corns. Laser surgery is used to vaporise the corn and surrounding tissues. Laser surgery is generally less invasive and may result in less bleeding and faster healing compared to traditional surgery. On average, the laser corn removal surgery cost in Chennai can range from Rs.15,000 to Rs.20,000. 
    • Chemical cauterization: This procedure involves applying a chemical agent, such as salicylic acid, to the corn to dissolve and remove it. It is often combined with other treatments, such as curettage or excision. On average, the cost of chemical cauterization corn removal surgery in Chennai can range from Rs.15,000 to Rs.20,000. 
    • Electrosurgery: Electrosurgery is also known as electrocautery, this procedure uses an electric current to burn and remove the corn. It is generally performed under local anesthesia. On average, the electro-corn removal surgery cost in Chennai can range from Rs.10,000 to Rs.15,000.

      Cost of different diagnostic tests performed before Corn Removal Surgery

      The doctor suggests several diagnostic tests to get a proper analysis of the foot before the corn removal surgical procedure. Below are some of the diagnostic tests recommended by dermatologists, along with their approximate costs.

      • Physical Examination: This assessment involves doing a comprehensive physical examination of the corn to evaluate its size, depth, and appearance. The doctor also checks for signs of infection or inflammation. The cost of the physical examination is generally covered by the consultation fees of the dermatologist, ranging from Rs. 500 to Rs. 1000.
      • X-ray Test: An X-ray test is done to determine if any underlying bone or joint damage is contributing to the development of corns. The cost of an X-ray can range from around Rs. 500 to Rs. 1500. 
      • Blood Tests: Blood tests are performed to rule out any underlying medical conditions. The cost of blood tests can vary depending on the specific tests ordered but may range from around Rs. 500 to Rs. 2000 or more. 
      • Skin Test: A skin test is performed to rule out any skin conditions or allergies. The cost of skin tests may range from around Rs. 1000 to Rs. 5000 or more. 
      • Biopsy: In rare cases, a biopsy may be suggested to determine if the corn is cancerous. The cost of a biopsy may range from around Rs. 3000 to Rs. 10000 or more.

      The cost range is an approximation and is subjected to variations based on the healthcare provider and the location of the diagnostic center. It is highly recommended to communicate directly with the hospital or clinic to get accurate and up-to-date pricing details. 

      What are the factors determining foot corn removal surgery cost in Chennai?

      Surgery is a safe and effective way to remove calluses or corn on the feet. The corn removal surgery cost may vary in Chennai depending on several variables.  Some of the factors are given below:

      • Medical history: Any previous surgery, particular medications, or supplements taken by the patient should be well informed to the doctor before corn removal surgical treatment.
      • Type of surgery: If the infection gets prolonged in the foot area, the surgeon recommends a surgical process. 
      • Financial plans: Patients who generally cannot afford the upfront cost of the corn removal surgical treatment may confide in the financial plans available at various medical organizations. However, these plans often have interest rates and some other hidden charges, which ultimately increase the total amount that needs to be paid by the patient over a certain period. 
      • Choice of hospital: Selecting the right healthcare facility is important before undergoing any treatment. The cost structure of any hospital varies depending on the type (private or government facility), infrastructure, choice of rooms (deluxe or super deluxe), etc. Less financial load and high success rates are two benefits of a good hospital.
      • Consultation fees: The general surgeon’s fees vary depending on the experience, areas of specialization, the location of a clinic, and the condition of the patient.
      • Experience of the general surgeon: The experience and expertise of the surgeon performing the corn removal surgical treatment can also affect the cost of the procedure. Experienced and skilled surgeons may charge higher fees. 
      • Post-surgery medications: After the corn removal surgical treatment, some patients might require medications for comfort and improved healing, such as topical antibiotics and painkillers. These medications may add to the budget of the surgical procedure.
