Painless Ingrown Toenail Treatment
Ingrown toenails are a literal pain. They can start off a little annoying, to uncomfortable, to flat out painful and even infected. The earlier you seek treatment, the less painful it will be for you.
In cases of severely infected ingrown toenails, these must be treated right away to prevent it from getting worse. Removing an ingrown toenail includes a numbing injection and cutting out a sliver of the ingrown nail back to the nail root. To prevent recurrence, the root of the nail is burned with a chemical or with cautery.
But what if it isn’t that bad yet, is there a less invasive way?
Yes, there are many products on the market and several that look very concerning for public use, so be careful with taking the short cut to treating it yourself. There is a professional product called Onyfix that is applied directly onto the nail by a professional that helps train the nail to grow out less curved.
The benefits of Onyfix includes:
Rapid pain alleviation
Corrects the nail through physiological nail growth
Effective without exerting force on the nail
Combinable and individually adaptable system
Effectiveness confirmed by a study
Particularly suitable for those with diabetes
No restrictions on patient activities (incl. swimming/sauna)
Nail polish can still be used
This is a quick painless application that can be done at your consultation. Request an appointment to learn more.
