Nail Reconstruction in London (Croydon, Sydenham & Covent Garden)
If you're struggling with disfigured nails caused by fungal infections, trauma, or other issues, Flawless Feet in Sydenham, Croydon, and Covent Garden offers effective, safe, and long-lasting solutions.
What is Nail Reconstruction?
Nail reconstruction is a non-invasive procedure used to restore damaged, deformed, or missing nails due to various conditions such as fungal infections, trauma, or genetic abnormalities. At Flawless Feet Podiatry & Laser Clinic, we offer state-of-the-art nail reconstruction treatments designed to provide both functional and aesthetic solutions for damaged nails.
This treatment involves applying a special nail gel that is shaped to replicate the natural nail and is cured under a UV light. Not only does it improve the appearance of the nail, but it also helps protect the nail bed and promotes the natural nail’s healthy regrowth.
How Does Nail Reconstruction Work?
This procedure is non-invasive, painless, and requires no downtime. Most patients are able to return to their normal activities immediately after the treatment. The nail reconstruction process is straightforward, and here's how it works step by step:
Nail Preparation
The nail is first prepared to remove any damaged or infected parts and to ensure a clean, smooth surface.
Application of Reconstruction Gel
A special gel is applied to form the nail structure. This gel is designed to provide strength and a natural look.
UV Light Curing
The gel is cured under a UV light to ensure it hardens into a durable, long-lasting nail surface.
Shaping & Refining
The reconstructed nail is shaped and refined to match the natural nail’s appearance, ensuring it blends seamlessly with the surrounding nails.

How Long Does Nail Reconstruction Last?
The results of nail reconstruction typically last between 4-6 weeks. This depends on how quickly your natural nail grows and how well you care for the reconstructed nail. Over time, as the new nail grows, the reconstruction gel may need to be touched up or reapplied.
Aftercare for Nail Reconstruction
After your nail reconstruction treatment, here are a few aftercare tips to ensure long-lasting results:
-
Avoid trauma to the nail: Be careful not to put pressure on the newly reconstructed nail until it has fully set.
-
Keep the nail clean and dry: Regular cleaning and drying of the reconstructed nail will help prevent infections.
-
Wear appropriate footwear: Avoid tight shoes or anything that could cause damage to the newly reconstructed nail.
-
Follow-up visits: Regular follow-ups are recommended to ensure the reconstruction is holding up and to monitor the growth
of your natural nail.
