Ingrown toenail

An ingrown toenail is a condition where the edge of the nail grows into the surrounding skin, causing pain, redness, swelling, and often inflammation.
It usually affects the big toe. Common causes include tight footwear, improper nail trimming, injuries, genetics, or fungal infections.

How the procedure is performed:

The specialist carefully treats the affected area, reduces inflammation, and gently releases the ingrown edge of the nail.
If needed, a special corrective brace is applied — it painlessly lifts the nail edge and guides its growth in the right direction.
The procedure is non-surgical and nearly painless.

Benefits of the procedure:

For many people, it’s important to understand how comfortable the procedure will be and how quickly they can return to daily life.
