So I've had this callus for about 4 years and just a couple weeks ago I started using Dr. Scholl's Callus Remover. Its been 9 days and my callus is white. Is that a good or a bad thing? Will I get my skin color back?

callus' normally go that colour after most treatments are applied, its basically the fungal area of skin that made up the callus, dying... After a while of using a pummel stone or similar abrasive method, this white bit of skin will literally peel off (with some help from your fingers) leaving a very sensitive area of fresh uninfected skin underneath, this will soon return the surrounding area to normal, itll be fine in a few weeks at most...

Yes, don't worry. After a few weeks, most people notice that it turns white. Soon, you will be able to peel it off, and your normal skin will return.
