Nail Surgery
At 360 podiatry we specialise in nail surgery. The partial or full nail avulsion procedure (nail surgery) is a minimally invasive procedure to permanently treat common nail conditions:
Onychocrptosis (ingrown toenails)
Onychogryphosis (thickened nail)
Onychomycosis (fungal nails)
Retronychia (Condition of the nail root
Paronychia (inflamed nail root)
Treatment
Step 1
First, the toe is numbed with local anaesthetic.
Step 2
Then, either the whole nail or part of the nail is removed.
Step 3
A chemical called phenol is usually then applied if permanent removal of the nail is desired.
Step 4
Special dressings are then applied to the toe.
Step 5
You will attend follow-up appointments to oversee healing.
