Frequently Asked Questions
A pedicure at home includes:

- treating calluses, cracked heels, corns, ingrown nails, warts and more,
- personal advice,

We reach our final height by around the age of 20, but our hair and nails keep growing throughout our lives. Toenails grow 1.5 to 1.8 mm a month, four times slower than fingernails. How fast they grow depends on several factors, such as circulation and age.
Well-cared-for feet contribute to your quality of life, so we recommend a pedicure every 4 to 5 weeks, or as often as your individual needs require.
Advice is also part of a medical pedicure, and this is where regular training, knowledge of the latest approaches and treatments, and experience really show. We help you choose suitable foot care products (creams, sprays and ointments) and give you tips on caring for your feet.
Ingrown toenails occur in both men and women, and age is no barrier either: at our clinic we have even treated a 2-month-old baby, so it is not necessarily linked to walking or physical strain. This painful problem affects every generation. People who sweat a lot, such as teenagers, are slightly more at risk, and so are older people, as their nails become thicker with age.
Our feet need care at every stage of life. Most foot problems are caused by various foot deformities. As we age, our body changes considerably: older people start to have problems with the spine, knees and hips. As a result, they unconsciously change the way they walk and load their feet incorrectly, which leads to corns, calluses, flat feet, fallen arches and other problems.
Some deformities, such as hallux valgus (bunions) and claw or hammer toes, can be hereditary. Regular visits to a professionally trained pedicurist, who uses high-quality cushioning aids to relieve pain and provides professional care, help manage these problems too. People with diabetes in particular need to take good, regular care of their feet.
They need to be especially careful with foot care, as diabetes can cause them to lose all sense of heat and pain over the years. Any improper foot care is a potential danger: it can lead to injuries (wounds), and because wounds heal more slowly, in severe cases even to gangrene and amputation.
