WHAT TO EXPECT DURING THE INITAL CONSULTATION ?

INGROWN TOENAIL TREATMENT & SURGERY:
Nail surgery is a specialized procedure that is designed to address a wide range of issues related to the nails. Whether you are dealing with ingrown toenails, infected nails, trauma nails or thickened nails, our team of experienced podiatrists can help.
At Nail Surgery Clinic, we use the latest techniques to ensure that your nail surgery is safe, effective, and as comfortable as possible. Our team will work closely with you to understand your unique needs and goals and design a nail treatment plan that is tailored to you.
Don't let nail issues control your life. Contact us today to schedule a consultation and learn more about how Nail Surgery Clinic can help you.
Initially, we will assess your toe(s), your general health, medication history and suitability for the surgery, which will be clearly explained to you. Any questions that you may have will be answered, then the nail surgery will be booked for a later date. Nail surgery is a simple procedure, where part or all of the problem nail is carefully removed. We will then provide an informative aftercare pack, to aid you in the recovery process, to get you back on your healthy feet as soon as possible.

Type of Nail Surgery
Partial Nail Avulsion (PNA)
PNA is a minor surgical procedure to remove a narrow strip of 1 side of the toenail. This is the ideal permanent treatment for ingrowing toe nails or involuted nails (which dig into the toe, causing pain or infections). It does not require stitches and is usually fully healed within 4-6 weeks.
Partial Nail Avulsion (PNA)
- Minor surgical procedure to remove a narrow strip of 1 side of the toenail.
- Quick and painless.
- No stitches required.
- Usually heals within 4-6 weeks.
- Ideal permanent treatment for ingrowing toe nails or involuted nails, which dig into the toe.
Total Nail Avulsion (TNA)
TNA is a minor surgical procedure to remove the whole toenail, with the option to permanently prevent nail regrowth. This method of whole nail removal is more favourable than those carried out by orthopaedic surgeons, as it does not require stitches, recovery is quicker (within 6-8 weeks) and there is a lower chance of nail regrowth.

Bilateral Partial Nail Avulsion
Bilateral PNA is a minor surgical procedure to remove 2 narrow strips on either side of one toenail. This treatment is the ideal permanent solution to retain as much of the healthy nail while removing both problematic, curved sides. It does not require stitches and is usually fully healed within 4-6 weeks.
