Nail correction system and nail prosthetics

Ingrown toenails and an inflamed nail fold can cause severe pain. Incomplete or missing toenails are also not just an optical deficit. With the right products in professional quality, you can relieve the affected areas quickly and sustainably. Whether braces and instruments for nail correction systems or gel, plastic and plaster for nail prosthetics: at Hellmut RUCK you will find everything for successful podological treatments.

Nail correction system: mild and effective

Correction instead of surgery: The nail correction system with its various methods offers a painless and relieving solution to nail problems. Thanks to the application of half, full or adhesive braces, you can effectively treat ingrown or curled nails. The irritated or inflamed nail fold usually benefits immediately from the mechanical pressure relief. For most patients, the conservative aids are hardly noticeable.

You should always determine individually which brace models are perfectly suitable. You will find an extensive selection of different brace sizes, wire thicknesses and material variants in our online shop. Good to know: Reduced irritation adhesive braces are perfectly suitable even for diabetics and other high-risk patients.

Nail fold tamponades: Effective protection, convenient help

Tamponades placed in the nail fold can serve several purposes. On the one hand, they enhance the beneficial leverage effect of nail braces; on the other hand, they serve to protect and simplify the application of ointments and tinctures. Nail fold tamponades are therefore indispensable both for ingrown nails and for claw or rolled nails.

In addition to widening the fold, they are used in particular to protect against adhesives and in contact with peclavus PODOmed pre- or post-treatment tincture. Tamponades are also the first choice for pain relief and soothing of the treated areas.

Nail prosthetics: For strong nails

In the case of severely injured toenails due to deformities, mycoses, trauma or nail extraction, nail prosthetics provide a quick remedy.
