How is it applied?
Your podiatrist will gently file the surface of the affected nail with a burr, and then apply a priming agent to the nail. This is cured under a LED blue light.
Onyfix composite is then applied to the nail and shaped into a discrete brace that is cured under the LED light. This composite brace remains in place on the nail as the nail grows out. When required, your Podiatrist will remove the brace painlessly using a burr. Check out the video below to see the process.
