What Is Nail Surgery?

  • Nail surgery is a minor podiatric procedure designed to permanently treat ingrown toenails, infected nails, thickened nails, and recurring nail problems. It is usually recommended when conservative treatments have failed or when the nail continues to grow into the surrounding skin, causing pain, swelling, or infection.
  • At Longwood Foot Clinic in Ilford, nail surgery is performed under local anesthetic, ensuring the procedure is comfortable and pain-free.

Conditions We Treat

  • Painful ingrown toenails
  • Recurrent nail infections
  • Thickened or deformed toenails
  • Fungal-damaged nails unresponsive to conservative treatments

What to Expect during nail surgery

  1. Initial Assessment  : Your podiatrist will assess your nail condition and medical history to ensure nail surgery is the right option.
  2. Local Anaesthetic  : The toe is completely numbed, so you won’t feel pain during the procedure.
  3. Partial or Total Nail Removal :  Only the problematic section of the nail is removed whenever possible.
  4. Permanent Nail Correction :  A specialised solution is applied to prevent the nail from growing back incorrectly.
  5. Aftercare & Dressing : You’ll receive clear aftercare instructions to promote fast healing.
