Service Details
What is Nail Surgery?
Nail surgery is a minor surgical procedure performed under local anesthetic for the permanent cure of ingrown and problem nails.
It is generally performed when conservative nail care treatments only provide temporary relief or where the nail or nails have become damaged.

WHAT TO EXPECT AT
Your Appointment
HISTORY
Your practitioner will take a full medical, medication & lifestyle history if you have never visited the clinic before, or review it if you have. All your information is taken in a private room and stored on our secure database for your privacy & security.
ANESTHETIC
On the day of the surgery we will review your medical history and assess the blood flow in your feet using a doppler. This is a painless procedure and when you and our podiatrist are both happy we administer a local anesthetic to numb the toe or toes
SURGERY
Once the toe or toes are numb and you are happy to proceed our podiatrist will perform the surgery in a relaxed professional manner using sterile instruments in an aseptic environment. The procedure often takes less than 10 mins per toe and you leave with aftercare advise and a follow-up appointment
