What is Nail Avulsion?
Nail Avulsion is a minor surgical procedure in which part or all of the nail plate is carefully removed to treat certain nail conditions. Depending on the underlying problem, your dermatologist may recommend a partial nail avulsion or a complete nail avulsion to relieve pain, remove infected or damaged tissue, and promote proper healing.

How Does Nail Avulsion Work?
Nail Assessment
Your dermatologist examines the affected nail and determines whether partial or complete nail removal is required.
Local Anaesthesia
The affected finger or toe is numbed to ensure a comfortable procedure.
Nail Removal
The affected portion or the entire nail is carefully removed, followed by appropriate dressing and aftercare instructions.

Whether you’re suffering from an ingrown toenail, chronic nail infection, or a damaged nail, our dermatologists will assess your condition and recommend the most appropriate treatment.
Frequently Asked Questions
No. The procedure is performed under local anaesthesia, so you should not feel pain during the treatment. Mild soreness after the anaesthetic wears off is normal.
Most Nail Avulsion procedures are completed within 20–40 minutes, depending on the condition being treated.
Most patients can resume light daily activities within a day or two. Complete healing depends on the extent of the procedure and the affected nail.
If only part or all of the nail plate is removed, the nail often grows back over time. In certain recurrent conditions, your dermatologist may recommend additional procedures to reduce the likelihood of recurrence.
Nail Avulsion may be recommended for persistent ingrown nails, chronic infections, severe nail trauma, or nail conditions that have not improved with conservative treatment.
