SERVICES: CURVE CORRECTION
Correcting Involuted Nails
​
Revive Nail Studio offers the Curve Correct bracing system to painlessly correct your overly curled nails.
​
Sometimes correction is for purely esthetic reasons, but most of the time the deep curve is causing the client pain and could potentially lead to an ingrown nail.
​
Your nails must be assessed in person before a suggested plan of care is provided.
Curve Correct is a topically applied, flexible brace that corrects unhealthy nail curvature. When affixed to the nail, tension gently lifts the sides of the nail out of the nail groove, alleviating pain. As the nail continues to grow, the nail curvature is corrected and proper pressure in the grooves is restored. Flattening of the nail CAN be permanent, as long as external influences on the nail shape are being addressed (i.e. toe spacers, wider toe box in shoes).
​
Application takes between 10-15 minutes per toe. Each brace should last at least 2 weeks, and up to 8.
CURVE CORRECT
Additionally, you can opt to polish over the brace which makes it nearly indistinguishable from the rest of the nail. Depending on the nail, correction can take as little as 8 weeks, or as long as a year. Generally, because of the tension of the band lifting the nail out of the grooves, this method gives faster relief than Option 2. Curve Correct is most effective on the large toenails. While it CAN be used on smaller nails, it is more difficult to achieve optimal placement with the bands on a smaller nail.
