Dealing With Thick, Yellow, Painful, or Damaged Nails?

Nail infections often begin gradually. You may first notice yellow or white discoloration, nail thickening, crumbling edges, bad odour, pain, or swelling around the nail.Self-treatment may not always work because different infections need different approaches. A proper diagnosis helps confirm whether the problem is fungal, bacterial, inflammatory, or due to another nail condition.

What We Offer

Diagnosis-Based Nail Infection Care

At SkinSculpt, we assess the type and severity of nail infection before starting treatment. The examination may include checking the nail plate, surrounding skin, nail fold, colour, texture, pain, and spread of infection.Treatment may include topical medication, oral medication, infection-control guidance, nail care advice, or minor procedures when required. We also guide patients on prevention to reduce the chances of recurrence.
