How Non-Surgical Nail Correction Works
01
Your nail surface is roughened with a burr to allow the primer to grip
02
Alcohol is used to degrease the nail to ensure the composite adheres correctly
03
Primer is applied to the entire nail
04
Your nail surface is roughened with a burr to allow primer to grip
05
A composite is applied close to the base of the nail
06
The blue light is used again to harden the composite
As your nail grows, the nail correction will grow out toward the end of the toe, which encourages the nail to grow into a more natural shape.

Non-Surgical Nail Correction FAQs
What is non-surgical nail correction?
Non-surgical nail correction is a treatment that gently reshapes ingrown or curved toenails using a composite applied to the nail surface. As the nail grows, it gradually returns to a more natural shape.
Does non-surgical nail correction hurt?
No. The procedure is typically painless and does not require a local anesthetic.
How long does nail correction take to work?
Because toenails grow slowly, full correction may take several months, depending on the nail and growth rate.
Can diabetics receive nail correction treatment?
Yes. Non-surgical nail correction is often suitable for diabetic patients because it does not involve cutting into the skin or nail.
Will I need surgery for an ingrown toenail?
Not always. Many ingrown toenails can be treated with conservative care or non-surgical nail correction.
How soon can I walk after treatment?
You can usually return to normal activities immediately after treatment.
How do I know if nail correction is right for me?
A chiropodist will examine your nail and determine whether non-surgical correction or another treatment is most appropriate.
