What Steps Are Included in the Nail Removal Surgery Process?

To reduce the risk of infection, an antiseptic solution will be administered to your toe once it is fully numb (which we always verify!). After that, the offending nail or a portion of it will be cut off.

 

To prevent the nail from growing back, phenol, a chemical solution, is administered.

 

The procedure will be finished with the application of a protective dressing. Within an hour, the entire process is finished (for one toe).

 

The podiatrist will schedule a follow-up visit with you to examine and treat the toe.

 

After that, you can go home and spend the remainder of the day lounging!

 

Our preference is always to avoid doing a full nail extraction whenever possible. Nevertheless, depending on your condition, we might suggest this as the best course of action in some circumstances. The majority of the time, partial removal is carried out.
