Imperial Feet Urea Foot Cream for Dry Cracked Heels

What Causes Heel Fissures and Deep Cracked Heels?

Main causes include:

  • Dry skin (often worsened by cold weather or low humidity)
  • Prolonged standing
  • Open-back shoes or barefoot walking
  • Callus buildup
  • Skin conditions like eczema or psoriasis
  • Aging, which reduces skin elasticity

When the skin becomes too dry or thick, it loses flexibility and cracks under the weight of the body. This is often the result of underlying issues; for a deeper understanding, you can read more about dry skin causes and treatment.

When heel fissures develop, standard moisturisers are often insufficient. The depth of the crack requires an occlusive, skin-barrier sealing formula like the Foot Fissure Cream to penetrate and repair the damaged layers.

Who Is Foot Fissure Cream Perfect For?

This specialist formula is intended for people with persistent, recurring heel cracks that have not improved with standard foot creams, including those with dry skin associated with eczema or psoriasis. Anyone with diabetes, bleeding fissures, pain when walking, or cracks lasting several weeks should seek medical advice before use. Professional pedicurists should refer clients with severe or open fissures for medical assessment before salon treatment.

How to Use Foot Fissure Cream | 6 Steps

CLEAN AND DRY

Step 01

Clean and dry feet thoroughly before application.

APPLY THE BALM

Step 02

Apply a small amount of balm directly to cracked heels and affected areas.

MASSAGE GENTLY

Step 03

Massage gently until fully absorbed.

USE TWICE DAILY

Step 04

Use twice daily, morning and evening.

LOCK IN MOISTURE

Step 05

For enhanced results, wear cotton socks overnight to lock in moisture.

FILE BEFORE APPLYING CREAM

Step 06

For best results, use the Stainless Steel Foot File to remove softened dead skin around the fissure BEFORE applying the cream.

Pro Tip - The Bandage Method

Apply a generous amount to the clean crack, cover with a plaster or bandage, and leave overnight. The occlusive environment dramatically increases penetration and healing speed. This is the method used by podiatrists for severe fissures.

Why Foot Fissure Cream Works When Regular Foot Creams Don't

Standard foot creams are designed for maintenance. Heel fissures are a wound. A physical break in the skin barrier. They need a formula that seals the crack, delivers deep moisture into damaged layers, reduces inflammation, and supports skin cell repair.

Active Why It Works on Deep Cracked Heels
Lanolin (Wool Fat) One of the most effective occlusive ingredients in skin care. Seals the crack while allowing skin to breathe and heal from within. Used in medical wound care for decades.
Zinc Oxide Anti-inflammatory, antibacterial, and wound-healing. Reduces redness, creates a protective coating over exposed tissue, used in medical formulations for skin barrier repair.
Petrolatum Occlusive seal that prevents moisture loss from the crack, keeping damaged tissue hydrated so it can repair. The gold standard in dermatological occlusive therapy.

WHY CHOOSE IMPERIAL FEET

Why Choose Foot Fissure Cream for Painful Cracked Heel Treatment?

Imperial Feet Urea Foot Cream for dry cracked heels
01

Clinical-grade formula

Lanolin + Zinc Oxide + Petrolatum. The combination used in professional wound care for deep skin barrier repair.

02

Visible results in 3–5 days

Noticeable improvement in crack depth and pain within days of twice-daily use.

03

Jojoba Oil for deep nourishment

Structurally similar to skin's own sebum. It penetrates and nourishes compromised skin layers.

04

Rosemary Oil for circulation

Stimulates blood flow in the heel, supporting the skin's natural repair process.

05

Piroctone Olamine

Antifungal and antibacterial. Open heel fissures are vulnerable entry points for infection.

06

Bandage technique included

Creates a wound-care environment that concentrates the cream's healing action.

07

75ml concentrated formula

A small amount per application is sufficient. This is a specialist, concentrated fissure treatment not a general balm. One tube provides several weeks of twice-daily targeted use at the same price as daily-use balms.

08

Diabetic friendly

Safe for regular use on diabetic skin. Treat heel fissures early. Diabetics are at higher risk from complications.

Results | What to Expect From Foot Fissure Cream

With regular use, many users experience visible improvement in the appearance and feel of their feet within just a few days. Cracks and fissures begin to heal, discomfort is reduced, and skin becomes noticeably softer and smoother. Long-term use helps maintain healthy, moisturized skin and prevents future fissure development.

Day 1–2

Pain from the crack reduces. Lanolin and Petrolatum begin sealing and protecting the fissure.

Day 3–5

Visible healing at crack edges. Gap begins to narrow. Surrounding skin softer and more flexible.

Week 1–2

Deep fissures significantly reduced or closed. Heel noticeably smoother.

Ongoing

Switch to Urea Foot Balm daily once healed. Prevention is easier than treatment.

Our Story

Every bottle carries that same obsession with quality, ingredients, and real results.
Honest answers

Every question you were too embarrassed to ask.

How quickly does Foot Fissure Cream heal deep cracked heels?

Most users see visible improvement within 3–5 days of twice-daily application. For very deep or long-established fissures, expect 1–2 weeks for significant improvement. The bandage method: applying the cream and covering with a plaster overnight. It significantly accelerates healing for severe cases.

Can I use this cream if I have diabetes?

Yes. Foot Fissure Cream is diabetic friendly and regularly recommended by foot care professionals for diabetic heel care. Diabetics are at higher risk from heel fissures. Reduced circulation slows healing and open cracks create infection pathways. Treat early and consistently. Consult your doctor if fissures are deep, infected, or not improving after two weeks.

What is the difference between Foot Fissure Cream and Urea Foot Balm?

Foot Fissure Cream is a specialist treatment for active, painful heel fissures. Lanolin, Zinc Oxide, and Petrolatum seal and repair deep cracks. The Urea Foot Balm is a daily preventive moisturiser that softens thickened skin and prevents calluses. Use Fissure Cream to heal active cracks, then switch to Urea Foot Balm daily to prevent them returning.

Should I use the foot file before or after the cream?

Always before. Use the Stainless Steel Foot File to remove hardened dead skin around the fissure. This layer prevents the crack from closing. Apply the cream after filing so it penetrates directly into fresh skin. Never file open or bleeding cracks.

Why is this 75ml when other Imperial Feet balms are 150ml at the same price?

Because this is a concentrated specialist formula. A small amount per application is sufficient for targeted healing action. Lanolin, Zinc Oxide, and Petrolatum are highly concentrated actives that do not need to be applied over the whole foot. One 75ml tube provides several weeks of twice-daily fissure treatment.
