An ingrown toenail occurs when the sharp lateral edge of the nail plate curves and pierces the surrounding periungual skin fold, causing severe pain, redness, swelling, and recurrent bacterial infections.
At Dermiiz, we provide immediate pain relief and a permanent cure through minimally invasive partial nail avulsion paired with chemical matricectomy (phenolisation). By ablating only the offending 2mm lateral nail root under local anesthesia, we prevent recurrence while preserving a completely normal-looking nail.
Stages of ingrown nails we treat
From mild early curvature to severe infected granulation tissue, we treat all stages.
Stage 1: Mild Erythema & Tenderness
Slight swelling and pain upon walking or wearing closed shoes without discharge.
Stage 2: Acute Infection & Drainage
Marked redness, throbbing pain, seropurulent discharge, and infection of lateral fold.
Stage 3: Chronic Granulation Tissue
Hypertrophic "proud flesh" overgrowing the nail plate with persistent bleeding.
Recurrent Ingrown Nails Post-Pedicure
Chronic curved regrowth caused by improper bathroom cutting or curved nail clipping.
