We understand the discomfort and pain associated with ingrown toenails. An ingrown toenail occurs when the edge of the toenail grows into the surrounding skin, causing redness, swelling, and sometimes infection.
Our clinic offers expert treatment for this condition, including toenail removal, to relieve your symptoms and restore your comfort. Our dedicated team is here to provide you with the best care for your ingrown toenails and other foot-related issues.
Ingrown toenails can develop due to several factors, including:
Cutting nails too short or rounding the edges can encourage the nail to grow into the skin.
Shoes that squeeze the toes can force the nail into the surrounding skin.
Trauma to the toe can cause the nail to grow abnormally.
Some people have naturally curved toenails that are more prone to becoming ingrown.
Not keeping feet clean and dry can increase the risk of developing ingrown toenails.
We provide effective treatment options for ingrown toenails, tailored to your specific needs. One of the most efficient methods is ingrown toenail removal, which can be performed partially or completely, depending on the severity of the condition. Our experienced team ensures a painless procedure using local anesthesia, followed by guidance on proper aftercare to prevent recurrence.

Signs of an ingrown toenail include pain, redness, and swelling around the affected toe. In severe cases, there may be pus or signs of infection.
Toenail removal at FACEMED is performed under local anesthesia, making the procedure itself painless. Some discomfort may be experienced after the anesthesia wears off, but this can be managed with over-the-counter pain medication.
Recovery time varies depending on the extent of the removal. Generally, you can expect to return to normal activities within a few days to a week. Complete healing may take several weeks.
While toenail removal significantly reduces the chances of recurrence, it is essential to follow aftercare instructions and adopt proper foot care practices to minimize the risk of ingrown toenails returning.
Preventative measures include trimming nails straight across without rounding the edges, wearing properly fitting shoes, and maintaining good foot hygiene. Regular check-ups at FACEMED can also help monitor and manage foot health.
Monica is extremely skilled at what she does, every procedure I have had has made me look natural, refreshed and more youthful. She is very professional and gives me confidence in her abilities. The clinic is absolutely spotless and run efficiently. I have been seeing her for several years and would highly recommend her services.
To say I’m pleased with the service is an understatement, outstanding patient care and a first class service. Doctor George and Team are by far the best dental team I’ve experienced. The FACEMED facility is of the highest standard and I highly recommend that anyone looking for any dental treatment to look no further than here.
Monica is truly amazing. The results are phenomenal and very natural. Monica spends time assessing your particular facial structure and physiology and treats accordingly, always being careful to produce the best results – she provides a bespoke service and her years of experience are priceless – I travel an hour to go to her! Would highly recommend and will never go anywhere else!
I hadn’t been to the dentist for year as i’ve always been too scared!! I plucked up the courage after Dr Ketan Sheth treated my 9 and 11 year old children and they were fine. Can honestly say now I don’t know why I didn’t go sooner. Dr Ketan Sheth is a fantastic dentist and all the staff and the surgery as a whole there is 5 star! Thank you for all your help and see you in 6 months.
I have been using FACEMED for a number of years now for natural, painless Botox injections. A few years ago I decided to also have Blepharoplasty Eyelid Surgery. The clinic has its own operating theatre for the Consultant Plastic Surgeon to perform surgery, the results were perfect. FACEMED is immaculately clean, the staff are professional and helpful and Monica is an absolute expert in her field.
I love my experience when visiting FACEMED. Such a relaxing, professional atmosphere. Furthermore, I look forward to seeing the results of my treatments, of which I am never in doubt. I totally recommend FACEMED for truly excellent results.
