How do you manage a curved nail in practice when you don't have anaesthetic?
Trying to change the shape of a curved nail is a real pain.
Most of the time, the curative solution is to remove part or all of the nail under local anaesthetic and with a chemical to stop it growing back.
That's great if you have access to those things, but if you don't, what options do you have?
Pedisafe Bracing? What the hell is that?
PediSafe is an aesthetic reconstruction and remodelling system.
Curable in both UV and LED light, used for enhancing damaged nails due to trauma, infections or post operative damage from ingrown toe nails.
PediSafe can be used safely on both hands and feet as a simple protective overlay.
It's often used for reconstruction of nails, but it has a useful role in managing involuted and curved nails without the need for surgery.
How can Pedisafe help your practice?
We all have those patients who either don't want nail surgery, or maybe aren't suitable for nail surgery.
The patients that maybe have poor circulation or a condition that would make surgery difficult.
Or maybe you don't have use of anaesthetic as one of your core skills?
This is where Pedisafe bracing comes in.
A simple, effective treatment that helps to change the forces acting on the nail as it grows.
Quite often that is all that is needed. A nail brace reduces the pressure enough to reduce symptoms.

Meet your tutor
Nicola O'Brian is a Podiatrist who gained her BSc Hons Podiatry from Brighton University in 2001. For the last 18yrs has specialised in Cosmetic Podiatry and has a special interest in Dermatology & Rheumatology.
Her interest in Cosmetics meant that she was treating a large proportion of patients with fungal nail pathologies.
Therefore she wanted to develop a way of treating the Fungal Nails and not just disguise them.
A method that didn't require expensive machinery that most small private practices cannot afford.
So Lacuna Method® was born.
It took over 4yrs of development to bring a simple and safe methodology to the public domain.
Nicola now spends her time travelling the UK & Europe delivering training courses to Podiatrists and Foot Health Practitioners so they can deliver The Lacuna Method® service to their patients.
There are now Lacuna Practitioners curing Fungal nails in every county in England, Most regions of Scotland & Wales, Northen Ireland, Ireland, Guernsey, Longuedoc region of France, Gibraltar, Cyprus, Australia and soon to be the USA and Canada.
