Providing a permanent solution to this painful and often recurring issue. When treating an ingrown toenail, we typically remove part of the nail, usually the section that’s growing into the surrounding skin, eliminating the cause of the problem. This approach permanently prevents the ingrown toenail from returning. Once the area has healed, the nail will grow back looking and functioning much like a healthy, normal nail. In most cases only the problematic part of the nail is removed, so there is no need to worry about the appearance of your nail after treatment.
In addition to treating ingrown toenails, nail surgery can also be used in some cases to treat fungal nail infections. If a fungal infection is present, we may need to remove part or all of the infected nail. Once removed, the area is treated with antifungal agents to help prevent the infection from returning as the nail grows back.
So it’s completely pain free. Afterward, we provide careful follow up care. You will return for redressing appointments to ensure the surgical site heals properly. We will give you all the materials you need to care for the area at home, and our team will guide you throughout the healing process to ensure your comfort.
Once your nail has fully healed and the issue is resolved, we will provide you with all the necessary guidance and support, ensuring you’re confident in the outcome before we conclude your treatment.
Nail surgery offers a permanent and effective solution for ingrown toenails and, in some cases, fungal nails, helping to restore both comfort, function and confidence in your feet.
