Surgery for an ingrown toenail (or matricectomy) - PiedRéseau Pointe-aux-Trembles
At PiedRéseau Pointe-aux-Trembles, we offer specialized surgery for ingrown toenails, also known as matricectomy. This procedure is designed to alleviate discomfort caused by ingrown toenails, which can lead to pain and potential complications if left untreated. Our clinic provides a safe environment where patients can receive this surgical intervention with minimal invasiveness and effective results.
The matricectomy procedure is performed under local anesthesia, ensuring that patients experience little to no pain during the operation. Our podiatrists carefully remove the affected portion of the nail, allowing for quick recovery and a return to daily activities. This service is particularly beneficial for individuals who have not found relief through conservative treatments.
Patients who are at higher risk for ingrown toenails, such as diabetics, seniors, and adolescents, may find this surgical option particularly advantageous. Our team is dedicated to assessing each patient’s unique situation to determine the best course of action, ensuring that the surgical approach aligns with their specific needs.
The PiedRéseau Pointe-aux-Trembles team includes Dr. Marie-Eve Berthiaume, podiatrist-owner; Dr. Catherine Roy Bénard, podiatrist; Dr. Océane Daigle, podiatrist; Hien-My-Uyen Sylvie Kong, podiatrist; Naima Hachichi, auxiliary nurse in foot care; Julie Delarosbil, nurse assistant in foot care; Antoine Prach, clinical manager; Jordane Allard Gosselin, assistant; and Érika Ruiz, assistant. Together, they ensure a comprehensive and supportive environment for all patients undergoing ingrown toenail surgery.
