Does it work well to thin down thick toenails due to nail fungus?
144505
I can only answer for what I use it for. I use it for acrylic nails, which are thicker than regular nails. I think it would file the fungus off. I would try getting a acrylic nail file and lightly file the fungus off first before I spent the money on a drill. Because with the drill you would want to file lightly or you will harm your nail bed. Just my thoughts.

I also use it to trim my own nails, both finger and toes. Works great!I use the fine grit sand disk.Drs used to use these things for trimming toe nails but claimed it caused nail fungus and they stopped using them.However they used a hard rock grinder and not a fine sanding disk. I think this was the difference. I've had my Stylus 1100 since it first came out, which was in the late 90s, I think. It has never failed after hours of use. Only thing I see different compared to the new ones is the price. Mine cost about 60 bux when I purchased it. Now they are about 1/2 that with more accessories. Although I doubt the news ones are as well built as the one I have. Michael-- Deo Vindicabamur I also use it to trim my own nails, both finger and toes.

I don't know if it will help as I didn't have splitting nails, just weak,dry nails. I find that this stuff burns a bit if I get too much around the side of the nail, but it may be from the formaldehyde in the Rejuvacote.

For toe and finger nails. But, it doesn't really work since the fungus is underneath the nail.

Yes, this toe nail clipper will handle thick toe nails. My big toe is pretty thick,also. I have no problems cutting my toe nails. I really love the sturdy handle, as it doesn't bend like others I have had. Hope this will help you. Works great for me.

Sorry i didn't respond earlier, but when the product thickens - usually when you get closer to the bottom of the bottle - i just add a little bit of nail polish thinner to it; and yes, it really really does work... i have never tried any of the others that you have listed. Before using it, my nails were very thin and split alot; do be sure to use it as it says, daily application and then take off after a week and re-apply...I would highly recommend this product.

I think this product will work on nails because I had no choice but to use it on my nails because I already had ordered it. It works very slowly though. I would not take any medication for a fungus because I heard that it damages the intestinal tract.

I would say unless your nails break some sort of record for thickness, you should be able to hone them down to the point that you could trim them.

If it works on toe nails it should work on finger nails too. Be noted that the product only works if the fungus has not spread on the whole nail. It only works on partially infected nails.

Yes, I have used it on my toenails to buff them down before polishing them.

I would think you could. However I think I would talk to a dermatologist if it involves your hands. You can wear socks and shoes to cover ugly toenails but your Hans are impossible to hide. If it were my hands I would see a doctor.

No--I just apply it before bedtime and remove the softened nail after swimming in the morning. Then apply an antifungal cream.wbd MD

this doesn't damage the nails. I was using shellac and when they would take it off eventually it began to whittle away the top of my nail until they were paper thin. My nails are generally very strong. I was ticked because I thought it would strengthen not break down. I am looking for something that will help my strong nails stay strong not damage them.

I don't know about toe nail fungus but it certainly helps with athletes foot and soothes shingles beautifully.

Yes. I use it on my clients that have acrylic nails that are thick. It has a high speed and it comes with the sand bits that are very effective.

According to my Dermatologist, yes. It works through your cuticles, not the nail itself.

Yes it is very effective on thick toenails because it has the right attachments bundled with. It has been used in beauty salons so for sure it can be used at home.
