How to use Podofix braces

Podofix is a non-invasive method for treating nail problems such as ingrown nails, nail deformities, and pressure-related discomfort. The method involves attaching a specially designed brace to the nail to gradually correct its shape and alleviate symptoms.

Step-by-step guide for applying Podofix braces:

1. Prepare the nail:
   • Clean and dry the nail thoroughly.
   • Remove any dirt and grease from the nail surface to ensure optimal adhesion.
2. Choose the right size:
   • Podofix braces come in different sizes (small, medium, large).
   • Select a brace that covers the nail's width without pressing too hard.
3. Apply the brace:
   • Place the brace horizontally across the nail and make sure it sits evenly.
   • Fix the brace by applying Podofix Glue for strong and durable adhesion.
4. Fixation with gel (optional):
   • For extra flexibility, Podofix Pedigel can be used instead of glue.
   • The gel provides a softer and more adaptive fixation, which may be more comfortable for some patients.
5. Curing the brace:
   • If Pedigel is used, cure the gel with a UV lamp to ensure stability.
   • Check that the brace is properly attached and adjust if necessary.
6. Final check:
   • Ensure the brace is secure and does not cause discomfort.
   • The patient can return to daily activities immediately after treatment.

Aftercare and removal of Podofix

• The brace can remain on the nail for several weeks and should be replaced as needed.
• Regularly check that the brace remains in place and does not cause irritation.
• When removing, a professional podiatrist or the user can gently loosen the brace with pliers and clean the nail.

Difference between Podofix Gel and Podofix Glue

• Podofix Glue is fast-curing and creates a hard and strong adhesion to hold the Podofix brace firmly on the nail.
• Podofix Pedigel is more flexible after curing, which can provide better comfort and a more adaptable fixation.
• The glue is stiffer, while the gel allows more movement and follows the nail's shape more softly.
