I have been with Skinlab for over a year now and I enjoy their services. Love how my skin feels after each facial session :) I'm well taken care by Vicky for my facial and am very happy with my experience so far.
I have seen Dr Ho for many years now and she has always been professional, careful and kind. She also sees my two young children and husband and has diagnosed and treated us swiftly and accurately.
Booked for a teledermatology consultation since the circuit breaker started after reading about TWL Dermatology on 8 Days. I had a rash on my feet that won’t go away for a Long time and definitely got worse after CB started. I was planning to see a dermatologist even in February but got busy and now I thought I wanted to avoid hospital visits due to COVID. Helped that my friend also seeing Dr.Teo for last 2 years, but for different problem. But my friend got better and now just maintain with skincare. Don’t really know what to expect for video consultation but must say it really exceeded my expectations. First Dr.Teo and her team of staff nurse Lakshmi is so professional, very detailed in the assessment form and consultation itself very smooth. I send over some pictures according to what they ask and I was given a diagnosis and understand perfectly the treatment and cause given to me. Being skeptic before, now I think this is efficient and effective COs my rash all disappear and not just that, the creams and moisturiser given to me was very very good and not expensive at all, compare to what I been using from pharmacy for years and never have any effect
If you are looking for an amazing skin specialist in Singapore, Dr Priya is simply the best! I highly recommend making an appointment at her clinic. She is one of the loveliest doctors I have ever met, and she has been wonderful with my children too. She has been able to solve skin rashes to acne to sunburn, and I would recommend her to everyone! I have been using her product range for over a year, and I love the way her products feel on my skin. Thank you Dr Priya!
I have been seeing Dr Joyce Lim for 25 years.Till today my skin looks radiant and youthful.Thanks for your caring and it gives me very confidence in your treatment.
Joyce, Jerlyn and Rebecca helped me with my Oxygen Therapy and the results were great! They were very informative and sweet as well, it was enjoyable to go for the facial sessions.
I've had pretty severe rosacea for about 15 years, and have consulted with at least 3 dermatologists and purchased countless of products off the counter before discovering this clinic. Nothing worked. I've been seeing Dr Lynn Teo for about a year now and I am pleased to say that for the first time in years, I finally saw drastic improvements.
Went for my 1st consultation with Dr Tan and felt that he is one of the doctors that have my best interest at heart. He wasn't pushy in selling me anything but gave me sound advice based on his experience. Overall, felt that he is a really nice and genuine doctor. Can't wait to see my condition improve from here.
I’ve been a patient of Mr Khoo for around 20 years since I’ve first visited him during my army days. Saw his transition from Changi General Hospital to his own specialist clinic now in Naaman skin. Mr Khoo has been a very reliable and knowledgeable dermatologist, whom I’ve always go to for serious skin conditions that he will find a way to cure. Lately I’ve also sought his expertise for improving my face condition due to aging and he has prescribed the suitable creams and lotions that have improved my condition greatly. In addition, the front staff of his nurses and assistants have always been helpful and kind to my requests. There are always 4 assistants that will be around in the clinic to ensure the customers are attended to with care and attention. Overall, a continued wonderful experience whenever I made my trip down to Naaman Skin and Laser Center for any skin conditions.

An ingrown toenail, also known as onychocryptosis, is a condition that occurs when the edge of the nail grows into the skin of the toe. It can result in swelling, pain, and redness. Sometimes, you can take care of ingrown toenails on your own. However, if the pain is spreading or severe, you may need medical treatments. You may also want to promptly seek medical treatments if you have diabetes, a compromised immune system, or poor circulation.
The treatment option for ingrown toenail may include lifting the nail, removing some of the nail (partial nail removal), and removing all of the nail and tissue (total nail removal). The type of treatment you will undergo depends on your specific condition.
Lifting the nail
If your problem is mild, meaning the nail is only slightly ingrown and there is no pus, your doctor may be able to carefully lift the edge of the ingrown nail and place a splint, dental floss, or cotton under it. The splint, dental floss, or cotton will set the nail in a new position, separating the nail from the overlying skin and helping it to grow above the skin.
Partial nail removal
Partial nail removal may be needed for a more severe ingrown toenail. This means that there’s redness, pain, and pus.
During partial nail removal, your doctor will cut away the sides of the nail so that the edges are completely straight. Then, a piece of cotton or a splint is placed under the remaining portion of the nail in order to stop the ingrown toenail from recurring. In some cases, your doctor may also use a compound called phenol to treat your toe. Phenol can keep the nail from growing back.
Total nail removal
If you experience ingrown toenails repeatedly on the same toe or if your ingrown toenail is caused by thickening, your doctor may remove your whole nail along with the underlying tissue (nail bed).
To start the procedure, your doctor will loosen the skin around and from the nail. Then, the nail is separated from the skin by using a special tool under the nail. Your doctor may use a laser, a chemical, or other methods to remove the nail.
All procedures are performed under local anesthesia, which is injected directly into the toe. With local anesthesia, you will be awake but your toe will be numbed, so you will not feel anything throughout the procedure.
You are allowed to leave the hospital on the same day of your ingrown toenail treatment. However, it is recommended that you stay in Central for a few days following the surgery, at least 3 days, to let your toenail to recover before you travel home. It may be uncomfortable for you to travel long distances during your initial recovery time.
Recovery can be different for everyone. On average, it takes about four to six weeks to heal after partial nail removal and around 10 to 12 weeks after total nail removal. During the recovery time, you should be able to walk and carry on your life as normal after 3 days of rest. However, you need to avoid strenuous activities, including running and jumping for 2 weeks. It is also advisable that you avoid taking part in sports activities and dancing until you have fully healed.
Your doctor will give you specific aftercare instructions, which may include:
If your doctor gives you pain reliever make sure to take it as directed. Your doctor may also give you oral or topical Medication (antibiotics) which helps get rid of the infection.
Keep your foot raised for a day or two to allow your toe to heal properly.
Wear special footwear for the first few days. Then, you can slowly start wearing sandals or open-toed shoes until the area feels better.
Avoid picking at the wound.
Keep the wound clean and dry, except when cleaning the area or showering.
Soak your toenails with salt water daily.
Ingrown toenail treatment is a safe procedure. According to the National Health Services (NHS), partial nail removal is 98% effective in preventing future ingrown toenails. It is important, however, to remember that every type of surgery carries some possible risks, such as toenail deformity, infection, and anesthesia complications. Serious complications are typically rare and untreated ingrown toenails carry a much higher risk of complications.
If your ingrown toenail is not infected, you should be able to treat it with home remedies, such as keeping your feet dry, soaking your feet in warm water, using a wedge to lift your nail and apply antibiotic creams. However, if your ingrown toenail is infected, there’s no alternative than to get the medical treatments mentioned above.
Before ingrown toenail treatment, you may experience swelling, tenderness, hardness, redness, bleeding, pain, and pus coming out of your toe. In some cases, the condition can be serious and cause an infection in the bone, leading to foot ulcers and tissue decay at the site. After treatment, all of the painful symptoms you experience before will be relieved and the chance of the condition to complicate will be reduced.
