Nail problems are more than just cosmetic—they can impact your mobility, confidence, and overall quality of life. At Tender Foot Care, we’ve seen firsthand how persistent issues like ingrown toenails, nail deformities, or trauma-related damage can interfere with daily living. That’s why we’re excited to offer an advanced nail restoration treatment that not only improves the appearance of damaged nails, but also helps prevent future issues.
This innovative service allows us to rebuild and restore toenails using a medical-grade composite system that’s safe, effective, and designed for long-term support. While many treatments offer temporary relief, our nail restoration approach helps correct the underlying nail structure, making it a particularly valuable solution for patients struggling with recurring ingrown toenails.
Nail restoration is a medical-grade, non-surgical treatment used to reconstruct toenails that have been damaged or altered by trauma, infection, surgery, or chronic conditions. Unlike cosmetic overlays or acrylic applications found in salons, this method uses a specialized composite that is biocompatible and clinically developed for the unique structure of the toenail and nail bed.
The result is a natural-looking, durable artificial nail that not only improves the toe’s appearance but also supports proper nail growth. More importantly, it provides structural correction that helps prevent the nail from growing inward, a common issue for those with recurring ingrown toenails.
The process is quick, comfortable, and performed right here in our office.
One of the most exciting benefits of this service is its long-term potential for patients who suffer from chronic ingrown toenails. These often painful conditions can stem from many causes—tight shoes, improper trimming, trauma, or simply genetic predisposition—but they all have one thing in common: once the nail begins to grow inward, it can lead to infection, inflammation, and recurring pain.
By restoring the nail’s shape and structure using a custom-molded composite, we’re able to guide future nail growth in a healthier direction. This reduces pressure on the surrounding skin and gives the natural nail a clear, supported path to grow straight rather than curve inward. For many patients, this has proven to be a lasting solution, especially when paired with appropriate footwear and proper nail care.
The nail restoration process begins with a personalized evaluation of your toenail and the surrounding tissue. We’ll discuss your history with nail problems and determine whether this treatment is appropriate for your needs. If there’s an active infection or severe inflammation, we’ll work to resolve that first before proceeding with reconstruction.
Once the area is prepped, we begin applying the composite—a flexible, light-cured material that bonds gently to the nail bed or remaining nail structure. This composite is shaped to resemble a natural nail and comes in a variety of shades, allowing us to customize the look for a seamless match. After shaping and sculpting, we use a specialized curing light to harden the material in place. The process is completely non-invasive and painless. There’s no cutting, no drilling, and no downtime.
Once complete, the result is a nail that looks and feels natural but provides additional strength and protection. Over time, it can be adjusted or reapplied as your natural nail grows out.
Many patients are pleasantly surprised at how beautiful the restored nail looks. If your nails have been thickened, discolored, or partially removed due to fungal infections or trauma, the restoration offers a significant cosmetic improvement. But this isn’t just about looks.
Because the composite is designed for clinical use, it doesn’t just sit on the surface—it supports the nail and helps promote proper alignment and pressure distribution. This is especially helpful for people who are on their feet all day, wear enclosed shoes, or participate in athletic activities that put extra strain on the toes.
We recommend nail restoration for patients who have experienced damage to their toenails due to a variety of causes—repeated ingrown nails, trauma from sports or injuries, past surgical procedures, or nail loss related to fungal infections. In some cases, patients come to us simply because they’re tired of hiding their toes or avoiding sandals due to embarrassment.
While nail restoration is not a cure for fungal infections or structural foot conditions, it can complement your broader treatment plan by restoring the nail’s function and appearance while we address other underlying issues.
If your toenails are constantly painful, difficult to trim, or growing in unnatural directions, this could be a lasting solution that brings both relief and renewed confidence.
One of the most rewarding aspects of this treatment is that it allows us to take a proactive, rather than reactive, approach. Rather than treating ingrown toenails only after they’ve become painful or infected, we can help prevent them from recurring by restoring the nail’s shape and growth path.
In the months following your restoration, we’ll monitor how your nail grows and make any necessary adjustments. For some, a single application may last for several months. Others may benefit from reapplication or touch-ups depending on how fast their nails grow and the level of daily wear they experience.
What sets this system apart is the combination of aesthetics and biomechanics—it looks great, but more importantly, it helps your foot function better. That’s why so many of our patients who once faced frequent visits for ingrown nails are now enjoying life with healthy, pain-free toenails.
At Tender Foot Care, we take pride in offering services that are grounded in medical science and tailored to real-life concerns. Our nail restoration option reflects that philosophy—it's safe, effective, and designed to solve problems, not just cover them up.
