At Solewise Clinic we treat problematic fungal nails by addressing the cause and advising on the most suitable treatment method to cure the infection.
Service Details
Fungal nail infections (onychomycosis) are very common. They often start as a small patch of discolouration but can spread, leading to thickened, brittle nails that are difficult to trim and may cause discomfort in shoes. They rarely resolve without treatment and can return if not properly managed.
At Solewise Clinic, fungal nail treatment usually involves:
Nail reduction: thinning down thickened nails to relieve pressure and improve appearance
Application of antifungal solutions: professional-grade products designed to penetrate the nail and target the infection
Ongoing management advice: guidance on foot hygiene, footwear, and prevention to avoid reinfection







WHAT TO EXPECT AT

Before your appointment, we'll ask a few simple questions about your medical history, previous treatments, medications, and how long you've been experiencing your fungal nail infection. This helps us understand your condition and tailor your treatment to your individual needs.

Your practitioner will begin with a warm welcome and discuss any concerns or questions you may have. We'll then carry out a careful visual assessment of the affected nail(s) and surrounding skin to evaluate the severity of the infection and determine the most appropriate treatment plan.

Once we've explained our findings, we'll discuss your treatment options, answer any questions, and begin treatment where appropriate. You'll also receive practical advice on caring for your nails at home, preventing reinfection, and what to expect throughout your recovery.

Experienced Podiatrist
Our fungal nail consultation includes a full assessment of your condition, a discussion of the most suitable treatment options, and personalised advice for ongoing care. Treatment costs vary depending on the severity of the infection and the treatment recommended. We'll explain all fees clearly before any treatment begins, so you can make an informed decision with no unexpected costs.
Fungal nail infections can take time to improve, and the number of appointments varies from person to person. Most patients benefit from review appointments every 8–12 weeks to reduce thickened nail, monitor healthy regrowth, and adjust treatment where needed. Your practitioner will discuss an expected treatment plan during your consultation.
Fungal nail treatment requires patience, as healthy nails grow slowly. While improvements may be noticeable within a few months, it can take 6–12 months, or longer for some patients, for a healthy nail to fully replace the infected nail. Regular reviews and following your recommended home care routine will give you the best chance of a successful outcome.
