At Livingstone International, we know how much the right tool matters in podiatry. That’s why we’ve made it our mission to offer reliable, high-quality podiatry supplies that meet your everyday needs. One product that has stood the test of time is the professional foot dresser. It has evolved over the years, and today, we’re proud to offer a better version — the metal handle foot dresser.
Let’s examine how footdressers have changed and why our modern version is a more intelligent choice for your practice or personal care kit.
Where It All Started: Wooden Foot Dressers
In the past, foot dressers came with wooden handles. They were the standard tool for managing thick skin and calluses. Many podiatrists and care workers use them daily. Wooden handles had a solid grip, but over time, they wore down. Moisture, cleaning agents, and regular use would lead to cracks or splits.
You may remember using a wooden-handled foot dresser at some point. While they served their purpose, they often needed replacing, making long-term use more costly and less hygienic.
Why Change Was Needed
Hygiene and durability became key concerns. In busy clinics or care homes, tools must last and stay clean. Wooden handles absorb moisture and can’t handle high heat or harsh cleaning, which is not ideal in today’s podiatry settings.
As demand grew for better podiatry supplies, it became clear that the old wooden models needed an upgrade. We listened to feedback and found a stronger, cleaner solution — metal.
The Rise of the Metal Handle Foot Dresser
Now, we bring you a smarter option, the metal-handle foot dresser. This design offers clear benefits for professionals and personal users alike. At Livingstone International, our model features a rough surface and is 6cm x 18cm in size.
It’s just right for controlled, effective filing.
A professional foot dresser with a metal handle lasts longer, cleans easier, and resists wear. Whether you’re in a clinic or caring for someone at home, this tool adds confidence to your work.
Why Metal Handles Make a Difference
Metal handles do not absorb moisture, so they stay safe from rust, mould, and bacteria. You can sterilise them quickly and reuse them without worry, which is a must in healthcare.
They’re also more durable, with no cracking, splinters, or breaking. This saves you time and money in the long run, as you won’t have to replace them as often, making them a smart buy.
Our metal handle foot dresser is designed for a comfortable grip. It’s lightweight, but strong. The rough filing surface helps you treat hard skin with less effort.

At Livingstone International, we supply clinics, aged care centres, and hospitals. But we also think about you, the individual carer or user. Our metal-handle foot dresser is easy to use, even if you’re not a trained podiatrist.
