What is Ingrown Toenail Surgery?

Ingrown toenail surgery (Partial Nail Avulsion) is a minor procedure to remove a nail edge piercing the skin.

When a nail curves and cuts into the flesh, it causes infection and pain. A wedge resection toenail removes this side section down to the root. For severe cases, a toe nail avulsion (removing the whole nail) may be needed. The goal is a healthy, straight nail edge that no longer digs in to your toe.

Wedge Resection Toenail (PNA)

Cautery for Skin Tags

We remove the ingrown edge and chemically treat the root to prevent regrowth.

Total Nail Avulsion (TNA)

Complete removal of the nail plate for severely deformed or fungal nails.

Infected Toe Treatment

Medical management of paronychia (infection), including drainage and antibiotics.

Permanent Nail Removal

Application of Phenol to the matrix to stop the problematic nail section from returning.

Recurrent Ingrown Nail Repair

Revision surgery for patients who have had unsuccessful treatments elsewhere.

4-Step Toenail Surgery Process

We use a proven medical technique to ensure the nail helps you heal:

Step 1

Anaesthetic Block

We inject a local anaesthetic to the base of the toe, ensuring you feel zero pain during the procedure.

Step 2

Nail Resection

Your doctor performs a precise wedge resection, removing only the offending sliver of nail digging into the skin.

Step 3

Phenolisation (The Cure)

We apply Phenol to the nail root (matrix) to destroy the cells growing the spike, ensuring permanent nail removal at the edge.

Step 4

Dress & Discharge

We apply a sterile dressing, and you can walk out immediately (in open shoes) and drive home.
