About this treatment

The full works — for feet that need real attention

This is our most comprehensive cosmetic pedicure — designed for clients whose feet need more than a standard tidy and colour. It includes everything in the Cosmetic Pedicure, with a dedicated focus on removing hard skin, treating cracked heels and eliminating callus build-up.

Toenails are shaped and cuticle work carried out, followed by thorough soaking to soften the skin. Hard skin and callus are then carefully removed using professional tools, cracked heels treated, and the feet exfoliated and finished — leaving skin that feels genuinely transformed, not just temporarily smoothed.

Gel polish is applied with a Victoria Quinn rubber base for a long-lasting colour finish. All foot care products used are diabetic-safe. For very severe callus or deeply cracked heels, more than one appointment may be recommended to achieve the best result — we'll always advise honestly.

Common questions

Everything you need to know

Still have a question? Email us at info@zoe-lavender.co.uk and we'll get back to you.

The standard Cosmetic Pedicure focuses on toenail care, cuticle work and gel polish with general foot care. This version includes all of that, plus dedicated hard skin removal, callus treatment and cracked heel work — making it the right choice for anyone whose feet need more intensive attention.
You'll notice a significant improvement after one appointment — but for very heavy callus or deeply cracked heels, two or more sessions may be needed to achieve the best result. We'll always advise honestly at the time and will never remove more than is safe in a single appointment.
Yes — all foot care products used are diabetic-safe. If you have any specific concerns or conditions relating to your feet, please mention them when booking so we can ensure the treatment is fully appropriate for you.
Toenails grow more slowly than fingernails, so gel polish typically lasts 4–6 weeks on toes — often longer. Victoria Quinn products are formulated for a chip-resistant, long-lasting result.
No — hard skin and callus removal using professional tools is comfortable when performed correctly. The soaking beforehand softens the skin so removal is easy and painless. If you have any particularly tender areas, let us know and we'll work around them carefully.
No deposit is required. We just ask that if you need to cancel, please do so as soon as possible so the slot can be offered to another client.
We're at Hill View, Edginswell Lane, Torquay TQ2 7JF with free on-site parking. Easy access from Torquay, Paignton, Brixham and Newton Abbot.
