What is Wilde Pedique?

It’s an extremely elastic UV gel (one component Acrylester resin) which when exposed to LED light sets. LCN Wilde Pedique was developed specifically for corrective and restorative toe nail treatments. The gel resin has the ability to bond to a surface, add strength and harden with a glossy finish, whilst at the same time adapting to the movements of the toe due to its flexibility.

The results can be achieved even on callus layers of skin- very suitable where a toenail is missing or damaged or in the case where a nail has surgically been removed and there is an unsightly regrowth; thus effective on scaly nail surfaces as it can conceal ridges and deformations and hide discolouration (in the case of fungal nails). The Wilde Pedique gel once applied and cured will essentially look like and cut like a regular toe nail. It is an ideal solution for those clients who are looking for a cosmetically pleasing look and at the same helping stopping the snagging of the nail and possible infection. It does need refilling every 6/8 weeks until the nail is grown fully.

Who would want a WILDE-PEDIQUE treatment?

Fungal - this treatment can be used in conjunction with fungal nail treatment either in the form of topical or oral anti-fungal treatment. Although Wilde-Pedique is not a cure in itself, it should help in limiting the spread of the fungal infection and it will certainly go along way in boosting one’s confidence in being able to show off their feet.

Nails damaged by trauma (missing) – a prosthetic nail may help the new nail grow into place along the nail bed thereby minimising risk of an ingrown nail.

Cracked/split nails - LCN gels helps further damage by covering the crack/split, preventing further snagging.

Other Properties:

• No Odour
• No Discolouration – Once an Acrylester Resin has been cured for about 2 minutes under a LED light, the material is completely cured and will not change.
• No Primer/Chemical Activator – LCN gels use no aggressive acidic primers which damage the natural nail plate.
• No Damage to the Natural Nail – As the gel cures to a flexible surface, it will not damage or hinder the natural nail growth.
• Non Porous – neither moisture or air can penetrate the material and therefore, fungal nails can be covered with the gels helping prevention of further spread or development of the infection.

Wilde Pedique comes in 6 shades – clear, opaque, pastel, clear pink, soft beige and cool pink, and now natural nail suitable for both men and women.

CHARGES for Wilde Pedique treatment?

There will be a minimum charge of £30.00 dependant on the work required on the primary toe (such as the big toe), and a small additional fee of £5.00 for any others in need of work. These charges will be in addition to the standard professional fees (consultation / chiropody treatment).
