A Gentle Solution for Painful Toenails
If you’re dealing with ingrown or involuted (curved) toenails, you’re probably all too familiar with the pain and discomfort they can cause.
These issues aren’t just about physical pain—they can really take a toll on your overall well-being and affects your everyday activities.
That's why, at Blackwood Podiatry, we offer the Onyfix® Nail Correction System as one of the many treatment options for painful toenails.
Whether you’re a child, an adult, an athlete, or someone managing diabetes, Onyfix is suitable for all ages and situations.
What is Onyfix?
Onyfix uses a hardened composite material to correct nail problems.
It’s applied to your nail as a thin strip at the base of the toenail and then cured with an LED light.
Once it’s set, it works like a brace on your nail plate, helping to guide your nail back into its natural shape as it grows.
Clinical studies show that a 12-month treatment protocol results in positive outcomes.
The number of applications required during the 12 months is patient dependant. Some people will require 2-3 Onyfix strip applications to achieve the desired outcome.
What are the benefits of using Onyfix?
Pain-Free Treatment
One of the best things about Onyfix is that it’s gentle and painless. The application process is quick, easy and safe.
PAIN Relief
If you’re struggling with inflamed or painful ingrown or involuted nails, Onyfix can provide relatively quick relief of your symptoms.
Fits Your Lifestyle
Life doesn’t stop just because you’re treating a nail problem. You can keep up with your usual activities, like swimming or visiting the sauna, without any issues. Plus, you can still use nail polish (but not shellac) with Onyfix.
Natural Nail Correction
Unlike traditional nail braces, Onyfix doesn’t force your nail into shape. Instead, it uses your nail’s natural growth process to gently guide it back to where it should be. This approach means no invasive procedures—just your nail growing the way it’s supposed to.
Safe for people with diabetes & circulation issues
If you’re managing diabetes or circulation issues, Onyfix is a safe and non-invasive option for treating nail issues.
Tailored to You
No two nails are the same, which is why Onyfix is so adaptable. We can customise the treatment to fit your needs, ensuring the best possible outcome.
