How does LCN work to repair the nail?

LCN Wilde Pedique Silver Plus gels are designed specifically for toenail reconstruction using a light-cured resin. This resin bonds to the natural nail bed, creating a durable, long-lasting artificial nail.

The gel's flexibility allows it to adapt to the movements of the foot, ensuring comfort and a natural appearance. The product contains microcrystalline silver and antifungal agents, which help reduce the bacterial load and prevent infections during the nail reconstruction process.

How does LCN Wilde Pedique allow the nail to repair and grow underneath?

LCN Wilde Pedique Silver Plus gels are elastic and provide a protective layer over the damaged or missing nail. This protective layer shields the underlying nail bed from external stress and infections, allowing the natural nail to grow underneath.

The gel’s breathable yet durable nature ensures that the nail bed receives sufficient oxygen, promoting healthy nail growth while the gel is in place.

Why is LCN Wilde Pedique medically safe to be applied directly onto the skin?

LCN Wilde Pedique Silver Plus is formulated with medically safe components, including microcrystalline silver and Piroctone Olamine, which have antifungal and antibacterial properties.

These ingredients reduce the risk of infections, making it safe for application directly onto the skin or nail bed. Additionally, the gel is designed to be highly elastic and adaptable, minimising irritation and ensuring a comfortable fit.

How should you treat the nail before applying LCN Wilde Pedique?

Properly preparing the nail before applying LCN Wilde Pedique is crucial. This involves cleaning the nail and removing any dead or diseased tissue.

Buffing the nail surface to ensure it is smooth and free of oils or debris is also necessary. Applying an antifungal treatment, such as LCN Mykosept, can provide additional protection.

Once the nail is clean and prepped, the gel can be applied in thin layers, each cured under an LED lamp for optimal adhesion and durability. The prep work, as with all nail treatments, is key!

These steps ensure the best results when using LCN Wilde Pedique Silver Plus gels for toenail reconstruction and health maintenance.

Unlike other gels, they have been made purely for toenails. They were created in the mid-1990s and have had multiple updates during this time. The high-quality ingredients inside the formulation are some of the main reasons why these can be built up in layers directly over the nail bed.

Here are a few key points which are also mentioned above, but it’s for these key reasons that they are safe for this purpose:

Microcrystalline Silver Plus

Bacterial Load Reduction: The addition of microcrystalline silver plus helps significantly reduce the bacterial load on the nail bed during the reconstruction process.

Antifungal Properties: Contains an active antifungal ingredient that helps prevent nail infections, ensuring the nail remains healthy and infection-free during wear.

Elastic Reconstruction

Protection for Nail and Nail Bed: The elastic nature of the Wilde Pedique gel provides necessary protection to both the reconstructed nail and the exposed nail bed.

Stress Resistance: Allows the toenail to grow out naturally, even under stress, offering durability and resilience to everyday activities.
