Curved and ingrown fingernails and toenails are a common cause of pain, inflammation, and recurring nail problems seen in podiatry clinics, medical spas, and professional nail practices. Inward nail curvature creates continuous pressure against the surrounding skin, often leading to tenderness, swelling, and difficulty walking.

Pōdex™ is an invisible, transparent professional-grade nail-lifting gel polish system designed to support non-invasive correction of curved and ingrown-prone nails which is also compatible with coloured polish.

A modern alternative to rigid nail bracing

Traditional professional treatments often involve unsightly metal braces, bands, clips, or partial nail removal. While effective, these methods can be uncomfortable, highly visible, and require frequent adjustments.

Pōdex™ provides a transparent, gel-based alternative that applies controlled tension across the nail surface once cured under UV or LED light. This gentle lifting action helps reduce inward pressure and supports a flatter, healthier nail growth pattern over time.

Designed for clinical and professional environments

The Pōdex™ system is suitable for use in:

• Podiatry clinics

• Medical spas

• Nail clinics and salons

• Foot care practices

Its discreet appearance allows patients to continue normal daily activities without bulky external devices.

The Pōdex™ 3-step professional system

Pōdex™ uses a structured three-step process:

Prep – Conditions the nail surface for strong, even adhesion.
Lift – Applies the lifting gel that creates gentle upward tension across the nail.
Seal – Protects and stabilizes the correction for maximum durability.

Each layer is cured under UV or LED light, forming a strong yet flexible structure that supports the nail during growth. The more thin layers applied, the stronger the tension. Application every 2-3 weeks or when tension breaks and small cracks appear due to  unusual external pressure and wear and tear.

Suitable for a wide range of patients

Pōdex™ can be used on toenails affected by:

• Curvature or pinching

• Recurrent ingrown edges

• Nail pressure from footwear or activity

• Age-related nail thickening

• Medication-related nail changes

It allows clinics to offer a comfortable, invisible, non-invasive correction option alongside traditional care.
