Nail Surgery

Nail problems can be painful, stubborn, and sometimes even embarrassing. Whether it’s an ingrown nail, persistent infection, deformity, or a growth on the nail, we are specially trained to treat nail conditions with precision.

At our clinic, we offer advanced, minimally invasive nail surgeries performed under strict dermatological care—ensuring safety, comfort, and fast recovery.

Why Choose Nail Surgery?

Many nail problems do not respond well to home remedies or repeated medications. Nail surgery helps when you need:

• Permanent relief from recurring ingrown toenails
• Treatment of nail infections or thickened nails
• Removal or biopsy of suspicious nail growths
• Correction of nail deformities
• Accurate diagnosis for long-standing nail diseases

Conditions Treated with Nail Surgery

We perform a wide range of procedures for:

1. Ingrown Toenail

• Painful, swollen nail edges
• Often caused by improper trimming, tight footwear, or repeated trauma
• Surgery removes the offending nail portion and prevents recurrence

2. Chronic Paronychia (Nail Fold Infection)

• Redness, swelling, and pus around the nail
• Surgery opens and cleans infected tissue for faster healing

3. Nail Dystrophy / Thickened Nails

• Caused by fungal infections, trauma, or psoriasis
• Surgical thinning or removal improves function and appearance

4. Nail Tumors & Suspicious Lesions

• Pigmented streaks, masses, or persistent growth under/around the nail
• Surgery allows safe removal or biopsy for accurate diagnosis

5. Subungual Hematoma / Blood Clots Under Nail

• Caused by injury
• Quick surgical release relieves pain and pressure

Types of Nail Surgeries We Offer

• Partial Nail Avulsion

  • Removes only the problematic part of the nail
  • Ideal for ingrown toenails
  • Minimal discomfort and quick healing

• Complete Nail Avulsion

  • Removal of the entire nail plate
  • Done for severe fungal infection, thickened nails, or evaluation of underlying nail bed

• Chemical Matrixectomy (Phenol / NaOH)

  • Permanently prevents regrowth of the problematic portion of the nail
  • Excellent long-term results for recurrent ingrown nails

• Nail Biopsy

  • Helps diagnose psoriasis, lichen planus, melanoma, tumors, or chronic nail disorders

What to Expect

Before Surgery

• Local anesthesia to ensure a completely pain-free experience

During the Procedure

• Quick and precise surgical technique

After Surgery

• Dressing applied to protect the treated area
• Mild soreness for a day or two
• Most patients walk comfortably immediately after
• Normal daily activities can resume the same day (except heavy sports)

Post-Procedure Care

To ensure smooth healing:

• Keep the dressing dry for 24–48 hours
• Soak the toe in warm saline if advised
• Apply prescribed antibiotic/anti-inflammatory creams
• Wear open or loose footwear temporarily
