Professional ingrown toenail cutters are specialized tools designed to safely and precisely remove ingrown toenails. These clippers are different from regular nail clippers in a few ways:
- Curved Blades: They typically have a slightly curved blade that conforms to the natural curve of the toenail, allowing for more targeted and controlled cutting under the curved nail edge.
- Sharper Points: The points of the blades tend to be sharper than regular clippers to make clean cuts through tough or thick toenails.
- Wider Jaws: Some professional ingrown toenail cutters have wider jaws to accommodate thicker toenails.
Uses:
- Ingrown Toenail Removal: Specifically designed to safely and effectively remove ingrown toenails.
- Cutting Thick Nails: Strong enough to cut through thick toenails that regular nail clippers can’t handle.
- Trimming Nails at Precise Angles: The design allows for precise cutting at angles to prevent future ingrown toenails.
- Cleaning Under Nails: Some models come with a pointed tip or included tools for cleaning under the toenail.
- Managing Nail Fungus: Helps in trimming and removing nails affected by fungal infections.
- Preventing Nail Splitting: The sharp, precise cutting edge reduces the risk of nail splitting.
- Reducing Pain and Discomfort: Proper use can alleviate pain and discomfort caused by ingrown toenails.
Key Features:
- Sharp, high-quality stainless steel blades for clean and precise cuts
- Curved or angled blades for better access to ingrown nails
- Comfortable handles for ease of use
- Some may have built-in spring mechanisms and widened jaws for thicker nails
Frequently Asked Questions:
What is the proper way to cut an ingrown toenail?
When the toenail grows out, cut it across in a line that mimics the curving line of the toe tip; do not round the corners down.
What causes thickening of toenails?
The most common cause of thickened toenails is aging.
What color is toenail fungus?
Nail fungus is a common infection of the nail. It begins as a white or yellow-brown spot under the tip of your fingernail or toenail.
