If every step sends a sharp reminder that your shoes are the enemy, it’s time to intervene. This treatment is well suited for clients tired of “bathroom surgery” and ready for professional, hygienic relief that actually solves the problem rather than just trimming it back temporarily.
You constantly battle recurring pain and inflammation on the sides of your toenails despite trying to trim them yourself.
Runners and tennis players in Boca whose toes take a repetitive beating, leading to pressure that forces nails into the sensitive skin folds.
If your love for pointed heels or narrow loafers has caused embedded nails, we can restore comfort without forcing you to sacrifice style forever.
From painful pressure to walking on clouds
Upon entering Skin Lounge Med Spa, you will be seated in our sanitized, comfortable treatment suite. Your specialist will examine the affected area to determine the severity of the ingrown nail and check for any signs of acute infection that might require specific medical protocols.
We begin with a warm, antiseptic soak to soften the skin and nail plate. This not only reduces inflammation but prepares the area for a painless extraction. If necessary, a topical numbing agent is applied to ensure your absolute comfort.
Using sanitized, Professional instruments, the specialist gently lifts and removes the offending nail spur. Unlike a standard pedicure, we focus on clearing the nail groove and smoothing the edge to prevent immediate regrowth into the skin. If you opted for a correction system (like a brace), it is applied at this stage.
The area is cleansed with a high-grade antimicrobial solution and dressed if needed. We finish with a hydration treatment for the surrounding skin and provide you with a customized plan to keep your toes pain-free.
Tailored solutions ranging from quick relief to complete restoration
Designed for a specific, painful digit. This tier focuses strictly on alleviating the pain of a single ingrown nail. It includes antiseptic cleansing, precision removal of the ingrown spicule, and dressing of the area. Best for those needing immediate emergency relief.
Our signature preventative approach. This includes a full Professional pedicure focusing on cuticle restored and proper nail shaping, combined with the treatment of mild ingrown nails. We remove calluses and ensure the nail plate is trimmed flat to prevent future issues.
For chronic sufferers, this non-intensive tier involves the application of a tension-correction strip (like the BS Brace). This helps retrain the curvature of the nail over time, lifting it away from the soft tissue without surgery. Ideal for preventing recurrence.
A specialized fiberglass strip applied to the nail that gently lifts the edges over time to correct severe curvature ($50 per toe).
If fungal issues are contributing to the nail deformity, a quick laser session can help kill pathogens and promote clear growth.
Deeply hydrating warm wax treatment to soothe the feet and soften the skin after the corrective procedure.
Application of Professional silver gel to accelerate restoreing and prevent bacteria in the nail groove post-extraction.

Most clients feel immediate relief rather than pain. We use techniques to minimize discomfort, and topical numbing is available if the area is extremely sensitive.
No, this is a non-intensive aesthetic treatment. We do not perform external referrals (cutting the root) or use topical comfort protocol; we address the nail plate conservatively and hygienically.
While you can, we highly recommend bringing open-toed sandals to your appointment to allow the addressed area to breathe and avoid pressure for the rest of the day.
Common causes include cutting nails too short or rounding the corners, wearing tight footwear, genetic nail curvature, or trauma from sports like running or tennis.
A nail brace is a small, flat strip glued to the nail surface. It uses tension to gently lift the curved edges of the nail up and away from the skin, training it to grow flat.
If there is severe infection (pus, extreme heat, spreading redness), we may refer you to a podiatrist first. For mild inflammation, our sanitized professional pedicure is safer than a standard salon service.
It can if the underlying cause (like tight shoes) isn't addressed. However, regular maintenance and our corrective bracing significantly reduce recurrence rates.
We generally recommend leaving the nail bare for 24-48 hours to allow the groove to restore, but breathable polishes may be applied at the specialist's discretion.
