Grinding cap LUKAS SK Thermo Podo MEDIUM ø10mm 10 pieces

Fine - 150 grit. Recommended speed: 7,000 – 10,000 (max. 11,000) revolutions per minute.

The innovative company LUKAS produces abrasive points with thermal effect: the patented colour change technology enables early detection of overheating risks. This makes both patients and podiatrists or pedicure specialists feel more confident.

The color change technology provides two levels of warning and informs in time about the risks of overheating of the skin. The specialist performing the procedure can react immediately to the danger by reducing the pressure, starting the treatment of another area or temporarily stopping the work. The patient does not experience any unpleasant sensations, such as itching or pain. The risk of burns due to overheating is virtually excluded.

Diabetics will especially appreciate the use of this advanced solution in medical pedicure and podiatry procedures. Due to the reduced sensitivity of the feet, diabetics often discover overheating too late or start to feel pain (neuropathy). In the worst case, neither the podiatrist nor the patient notices the increase in temperature during the procedure. The situation is further complicated by the slow regeneration that is typical of diabetes. Conventional tools such as drills, diamond drills or scalpels can cause injuries such as burns or cuts and are therefore not recommended for use in diabetics. Modern THERMO grinding points reduce the risk to a minimum.
