Ingrown Toenails Treatment

Ingrowing toenails can be extremely painful and can quickly worsen if not treated properly. Whether caused by incorrect nail cutting, tight footwear, trauma, or genetics, prompt podiatry care can bring relief and prevent infection.

We offer a full range of treatments tailored to the severity and complexity of your ingrowing toenail — from simple conservative care to nail surgery under local anaesthetic when needed.

Why an Assessment is Essential

Every ingrowing toenail is different.
Some are mild and can be treated easily during the assessment appointment.
Others may be more complex, infected, or deeply embedded, requiring a minor surgical procedure.

Because of this, treatment and pricing can vary — and an assessment is always required first to determine the safest and most effective option for you.
What the Assessment Includes
During your podiatry assessment we will:
  • Examine the toenail and surrounding skin
  • Assess for infection, swelling, or hypergranulation
  • Determine the cause and discuss the best treatment options
  • Provide immediate conservative treatment if appropriate
  • Offer guidance on footwear, nail care & prevention
You’ll have the chance to ask questions and fully understand your treatment plan before proceeding.

Treatment Options Available

We tailor care to your needs, which may include:
  • Conservative Treatment
    Removal of the offending nail edge, dressing, and ongoing management. Often suitable for mild, early-stage ingrowing nails.
  • Local Anaesthetic Procedure
    For more painful or severe cases, we can remove the problematic section of nail under anaesthetic to provide instant relief.
  • Nail Surgery (Partial Nail Avulsion)
    A highly effective permanent solution where the ingrown edge is removed and the nail root is treated to prevent regrowth. Ideal for recurring problems.
We will recommend the most appropriate option only after your assessment.
