Ingrown Toenail Surgery
Ingrowing Toe nails can be treated conservatively, or with a procedure to permanently correct the problem.
The procedure involves numbing the toe with a local anaesthetic. Once numb, the offending nail margin is removed and cauterised to prevent regrowth in the area.
Once numb, there is no pain during the procedure.
The patient is able to walk out, and can wear shoes after 2-3 days
We have a sub-clinic dedicated to this procedure. To find out more, please click the link below
