From Infection to Restoration: A New Era in Fungal Nail Management

Fungal nail infections remain one of the most persistent challenges in podiatry, with high recurrence rates and incomplete recovery even after successful antifungal treatment. This workshop explores why fungal nails are so difficult to heal and how a restorative approach can transform outcomes for patients.

We will discuss the nail as a damaged organ, often presenting microcracks, detachment, and matrix trauma that compromise its structure and defense mechanisms. While targeting infection is essential, it is not sufficient to achieve lasting recovery if the integrity of the nail plate is not restored.

Through the PODERM Methodology, participants will discover a clinically proven restorative treatment designed to:

– Treat fungal nails while reducing detachment and microcracks to prevent recurrence
– Restore the nail’s initial quality, including thickness and color clarity
– Support healthy nail regrowth post-treatment

Clinical data and before/after results will be presented, illustrating measurable improvement in both aesthetic and structural parameters.

This restorative technology can also be applied to ingrown nails, with supporting clinical evidence demonstrating improved nail alignment and patient comfort.
