Medical Pedicure Q & A

What is a medical pedicure?

A medical pedicure is a comprehensive foot treatment that goes beyond the aesthetic aspects. Unlike a standard pedicure, which primarily focuses on beautifying your nails and skin, a medical pedicure is performed by trained staff at Hammond Foot and Ankle. Furthermore, many ailments such as warts, foot fungus, ingrown toenails, and nail infections can be caused by unsanitary pedicures at standard salons. A medically-safe pedicure at Hammond Foot and Ankle will not only address both the health and appearance of your feet, but will prevent you from developing one of these problems after an unsanitary pedicure.

When is a medical pedicure necessary?

You may need a medical pedicure if you're dealing with specific foot conditions or concerns that require professional attention, such as:

- Thickened or discolored nails

- Ingrown toenails

- Calluses and corns

- Cracked heels

- Fungal infections

If you experience any of these issues, book a medical pedicure with Hammond Foot and Ankle today.
