The key ingredient is Piroctone Olamine which is a slow release anti fungal agent.
The applied breathable resin will not crack and will expand with any growing nail beneath making them a long lasting treatment for unsightly toe nails including;
- Fungal Nail
- Minimal Nail due to Trauma
- Partial Nail/Total Nail Avulsion Disaster
- Rams Horn Nail
- Cracked Nail
