Nail Avulsion Partial Nail Avulsion with Phenol Matrix Cauterisation<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

At Podcare, partial nail avulsion with phenol matrix cauterisation<\/strong> is the most reliable and effective method for the definitive treatment of ingrown toenails (onychocryptosis). It is the technique associated with the lowest recurrence rates and the fewest complications, according to international scientific studies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

How is the procedure performed?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2013 Local anaesthesia<\/strong>
The area around the nail is fully anaesthetised so that the patient does not feel pain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2013 Removal of only the problematic section<\/strong>
The part of the nail that grows into the skin and causes pain or inflammation is removed (partial nail avulsion), together with the corresponding part of the nail matrix.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2013 Phenol cauterisation<\/strong>
Phenol is carefully applied to the nail matrix in order to deactivate the cells that produce that specific part of the nail. In this way, recurrence in the same area is prevented.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2013 Gentle on the tissues \u2013 minimal bleeding<\/strong>
Phenol has antiseptic and haemostatic properties, reducing the risk of infection and excessive bleeding.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2013 Fast recovery<\/strong>
As there is no skin incision and therefore no sutures, the patient returns quickly to daily activities. Simple dressing changes and home cleansing are then required for a few days.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Advantages & Scientific Benefits<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2714 Success rate above 96%
\u2714 Very low recurrence compared with other methods
\u2714 Minimal pain and rapid healing
\u2714 The healthy growth of the rest of the nail is not affected
