Ingrown Toenail Treatments – What Are Your Options?

At-home remedies for ingrown toenails can provide temporary relief, but if your nail keeps growing into the skin, it’s time to look at your options.

At Podiatry Medic, we provide everything from conservative care to minor surgical procedures designed to permanently fix the problem — fast.

1. Conservative Treatment

  • Warm salt soaks

  • Nail bracing or taping

  • Corrective trimming

Best for: First-time cases or mild discomfort without infection.

2. Medical Nail Surgery (Partial Nail Avulsion / Total Nail Avulsion)

We numb the toe and remove the offending edge of the nail. Then we use a chemical to stop that part of the nail from growing back. This is quick, clean, and over 95% effective.

Best for: Recurring ingrowns, infected nails, or when conservative treatment has failed.

Why Our Surgery Is Different:

  • Cosmetically precise

  • Premium sterile dressing packs included

  • Mandatory 2-day review for healing

  • Performed by a surgically trained podiatrist. The only Podiatrist with advanced surgical training in Queenstown!

Don’t keep suffering — book an appointment with Podiatry Medic today and take the first step toward pain-free feet.
