How long are products like this usually used, and when can you expect visible results?

The cream balm works by gradually softening the dense keratinised layer of skin — a process that does not happen in a day or two. The manufacturer positions the product as local care that fits into your home routine, not as a product with an instant effect.

The key component — celandine extract — is traditionally used to soften rough areas of skin. In a cosmetic format, its action is gentler than that of concentrated plant juice, so the changes are cumulative.

In practice, with regular use according to the manufacturer's instructions, the first changes in skin texture in the treated area may become noticeable after a few weeks. The exact timing depends on the individual characteristics of the skin, the size and density of the growth, and how regularly the product is applied.

• Use the product systematically — missed applications reduce the cumulative effect.
• Do not apply it more often than the manufacturer recommends in the hope of speeding up the result: this may cause irritation.
• If there are no visible changes after several weeks of regular use and the growth concerns you, it makes sense to consult a dermatologist.

The 10 g pack is designed for spot application, so with careful use it lasts for quite a long course of care.
