CureSpa is a trusted podiatry clinic in Dublin, specialising in advanced nail reconstruction and nail bracing treatments.

Whether the damage is caused by trauma, fungal infection, or congenital abnormalities, our professional podiatry team offers reliable solutions to restore comfort, appearance, and confidence.
What Is Nail Reconstruction?
Nail reconstruction is a specialist podiatric procedure designed to restore the natural appearance and structure of damaged or diseased nails. This is particularly beneficial for individuals suffering from nail deformities due to onychomycosis (fungal infection), trauma, nail surgery, or chronic medical conditions such as psoriasis.
At CureSpa, we use high-quality, medical-grade resins that are antifungal, flexible, and breathable, allowing the nail bed to remain healthy while the new prosthetic nail mimics the look and function of a natural nail. The product used bonds safely to the existing nail plate or nail bed, creating a durable and aesthetically pleasing finish.
Who Needs Nail Reconstruction?
-
Fungal nail infections (after antifungal treatment)
-
Nails damaged by physical trauma or impact
-
Nail loss or distortion due to injury or surgery
-
Thickened or brittle nails caused by long-term neglect
-
Cracked or broken nails that cannot grow properly
What Is Nail Bracing?
Nail bracing is a corrective, non-surgical method used to treat and prevent ingrown toenails and curved nails, a condition that often causes pain, redness, and swelling. This advanced podiatry technique involves fitting a small, discreet brace to the surface of the nail. Over time, the brace gently reshapes the nail plate, reducing pressure on the surrounding skin and encouraging the nail to grow in a healthier, straighter trajectory.
Nail bracing is a modern alternative to surgical nail removal and is particularly effective in early to moderate cases of nail curvature. At CureSpa, we use leading orthonyxia systems that are painless and highly effective.
Post-Treatment Care and Advice
After both nail reconstruction and nail bracing, we advise patients to:
-
Avoid moisture for 24 hours post-treatment
-
Wear breathable socks and well-fitting footwear
-
Use antifungal sprays or creams if prescribed
-
Refrain from cutting or filing the nail without professional advice
-
Attend regular check-ups for maintenance
