Ingrown Toenail Surgery Experts

Your Nail Surgery Journey

1. Book Initial Phone Consultation

One of our podiatrists will contact you to discuss your ingrown toenail.

2. Pre-Assessment Appointment

You will be booked in for a pre-assessment to make sure nail surgery is the right treatment for you.

3. Day of Surgery

You will be attended to by our two podiatrists to perform your ingrown toenail surgery under local anaesthetic. This usually takes 1 hour.

4. Initial Follow-Up

A review appointment takes place 2–3 days after surgery to check the toe and change the dressing with aftercare advice provided.

5. Two-Week Follow-Up

Your healing is reviewed and ongoing aftercare advice is provided.

6. Six-Week Follow-Up

A final review is carried out to make sure the toe is progressing well.

7. Healed

Most patients are fully healed 6-8 weeks post-operatively and discharged.
