About this item
- FAST INGROWN TOENAIL RELIEF - CurveCorrect is a nail brace that corrects the curve of your nail. By lifting each side of the nail, its pressure against the toe is eliminated. Most users experience relief in 1-2 days and full correction of the nail by 4 weeks.
- A UNIQUE TREATMENT - Known medically as orthonyxia, independent tests have shown this process has a low recurrence rate similar to surgery. Unlike surgery CurveCorrect can actually change the shape of your nail - the root cause of ingrown toenail pain. No cutting. No recovery. Lower cost.
- 90 DAY RETURNS - Use CurveCorrect for up to 90 days. Return it if you’re unhappy for any reason. Limitations apply. See safety information below.
- NAIL BRACE TENSION LEVEL - .140 (for the nail on the first toe of most adults 18+ years. Smaller nails, thin nails, highly curved nails and children’s nails will require a different brace)
- THE ORIGINAL - Proudly developed and manufactured in the USA. CurveCorrect pioneered nail bracing for personal use. Specializing in ingrown toenail treatment since 2008, no one has our level of experience.

Product Description
What is CurveCorrect?
CurveCorrect Ingrown Toenail Treatment is a truly unique and incredibly effective way to get rid of ingrown toenails. Ingrown toenails are the result of a toenail in which each side cuts into the surrounding skin due to increasing curvature of the nail. The obvious solution is to correct the curve of the toenail, a smarter approach not achieved using any other method, not even surgery. CurveCorrect fixes curved toenails, lifting each side and reducing its pressure against the skin.
How Does it Work?
The toenail brace is a composite strip applied across your toenail. The strip behaves like a spring so when it's bonded to the curved surface of your toenail it applies a gentle force that helps straighten the nail. Pressure from the side of the toenail is eliminated.
Most users notice reduced pain in 1-3 days, the nail is visibly less curved and pain-free within 7 days. Each brace will stay on for 3-6 weeks. Some users will require one application while chronic ingrown toenail sufferers should maintain continuous treatment for one complete toenail regrowth cycle to minimize the possibility of recurrence. Ten braces per kit.

Important information
Safety Information
Do not use if your ingrown toenail has caused an open wound. The adhesive cannot bond to a nail saturated in body fluids like pus or blood. Do not use if infection exists. Additionally, the adhesive cannot bond to your nail if you've recently applied treatments such as ointment, topical fungal medicine, nail softeners or any other chemical substance applied on or around the nail. The nail brace offered in this listing (.140 tension level) should only be used by adults on the largest toe. Toenails on the smaller toes, children's toenails, very thick or thin toenails, toenails with very high or low curvature may require a different nail brace tension level. Over-correction and injury is possible with too much brace tension.

There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
This. Works.
I had this on my wishlist for a while before buying, because it IS expensive, but I finally hit the point where I was like “it looks promising so let’s get it because this is getting past unbearable and I am tired of doing nail trimming yoga to do the necessary pruning to have painless toenails.” I ordered it, it came, and yes I read the instructions in advance before trying it. We’ll get to the tips for how to use it later, but suffice to say that it DOES take a little practice to get it on really good. However it isn’t as hard as some of the other reviews make it out to be, once you figure it out. But again, more on that later.
I’m going to start with it wasn’t the most comfortable thing at first, not at all. It made my toes tender when I started them, for a couple days but no more than that. Yes, it could be interpreted as a bruised feeling, but frankly the ingrown toenails hurt me worse and I have a higher than normal pain tolerance anyway so it was tolerable for me. for others, putting this on before a couple days of staying at home might be the best course of action. However, I noticed a change right away. For me, because the cuts I used on my nails was so deep, I placed 2 strips the first time I put them on; one at the mid-nail to lift the cut out of the skin groove, and the other at the tip to keep it up, too. (I did put it on other toes, as well, that was a terrible idea, please check the tips for the different strengths because it’s important. But it worked on those too, just with bruising painfulness.) The relief was pretty much immediate, no lie the pain from the ingrown nails was gone nearly the moment I got it on. It was tender and sensitive where it had been dug in for a few days to a week, but even that little bit got better, too. And then was the slow growing out process, and reapplying, and getting way better at that too, and even more waiting.
Now to the reason I have done the review now, and how I know it works 100%. It’s been about a month since the last time I had them on, and I will be putting them back on for another period soon to continue this, but last week I was binging on Netflix and had a foot propped up and absently ran my finger over my big toenail. It. Felt. Weird. I freaked out, because why would I have a ridge in my nail?? But lo, after inspecting, I got really really REALLY excited, because I DO have a ridge, but it’s not a ridge. IT IS NEW NAIL GROWTH IN THE APPROPRIATE CURVE TO NOT GROW BACK INGROWN. So that right there proved to me that while I was sure it was working because the ingrown nail is over the skin and long enough not to go back in, and it’s not hurting, and everything is fine. It has corrected the sharp curve cutting it back so far created, and all the new nail growth is going to be normal again.
I CAN’T STRESS ENOUGH THAT IT WAS A PROCESS BUT IT WAS SO WORTH IT.
Now, the tips and tricks.
1. The biggest one is that this is the curve strength for the big toenail, not any other nail. You can order other strength kits on their website, or as they specify you can also narrow this one to be weaker for smaller nails. Don’t just put this on anything but the big toe. If you put it on the big toe and it feels bruising, take it off and thin it out, it’s too strong for that nail.
2. You can contact their customer service to order new strips sans the kit.
3. When applying, roughing the nail is so needed, it makes the glue stick better. Make sure you take that step instead of skipping it.
4. A pair of tweezers to sit the strip with glue on it in place is very helpful, and not putting too much glue is also helpful. Less is more.
5. Don’t use the swabs in the kit for what they’re for. Use regular swabs, and take the ones from the kit and use those wooden ends to hold the strip down while the glue sets. The longer you hold it tight to the nail while the glue dries, the longer lasting it is. Rotate the swab so it doesn’t get glued down while doing this.
6. The strips stay on for ages if properly applied, and the company has reassured me that you can reuse them. So do that instead of ordering more if you can!
7. If you are ready to reapply the strip, you can help with the initial “I just put this on and the ingrown area hurts as it lifts out” with liberal application of Neosporin and many bandaids to keep it in.
Pretty sure that is all the tricks I learned. It takes practice. If you fail at first, keep trying. Use acetone or something to clean the glue off, and go for it again until you get it right. It’s like anything else, you are not going to get it perfect the first try. Perfection isn’t even necessary, good enough will work because that is what happened to me most of the time.
This product works. I can’t believe it, honestly, I am still in delighted shock that it’s corrected so much to give me perfect new nail growth. 20+ years of ingrown toenails? Fixed.
UPDATE 11/2020: I see tons of negative reviews, so I wanted to continue my own positive story. I am still using them, I haven't managed to wear them nonstop like I know I should, but it turns out the older I get the more V shaped my nails become like my grandmothers snaggletoes. However, popping these bad boys on every couple of months has made my life so much easier and pain free. I still do have good nail growth, the problem is no longer the big toes for the most part. The little toes next to them have started that old lady shape, and I just trim a strip thinner and glue it in place and BOOM. Little toe is tender for a couple days, not painful I am super careful of that, and now little toe does not give me issues with bad nail shape. I imagine to counter that hereditary problem I might be looking at lifelong usage, but when the alternative is pain or having a procedure to stop the nail growth on the sides of the nail (which looks very unsightly to me, I'd like to skip it personally if I can, because I live in a beachy place and open toed shoes are a daily thing) which I don't want. I'm still very pleased with the product and I hope that my tips and trips help anyone who uses them.
I will say it is not that easy to get the placement right the first time. Be patient. Better yet, get help from a friend. And follow the great tips other reviewers give. In my first attempt, the strap just came off as I was so over-shy with the glue. 2nd time it worked. I also soaked my foot for 5 minutes before applying as suggested.
Buy with confidence. You'll be SO happy you did.

Their customer service is super helpful. I contacted them before application and they answered all of my questions. They explained how I could use the same braces I already had instead of trying to sell me more. I am happy with the result so far, only 5 days in. This will be a long term commitment, but the pain from the nail growing into the toe is gone and I’m never going back!

I thought I was writing the company directly but I unintentionally left a negative review on the site.
This product Curve correct ingrown toenail treatment has been such a great product that I am a return customer.
I have struggled with ingrien toenails my whole life. I would try treating them myself and leave my toes looking like a mess and very painful. While getting a pedicure, the lady commented on my toenails being ingrown and that she could fix them. She was trained further than a pedicurist so I went to her shop and she began a process of correcting my nails using bands. Unfortunately she moved and nobody around my town does this. So then I went on the search on the intern and found Curve correct. I have used them for over a year. I taught my husband to apply the bands on my nails and I have been able to keep my nails from becoming ingrown again.
Do not hesitate, these are easy to apply and you can paint over them if you like. I don’t even bother painting my nails, the band is clear and it doesn’t make the nail look untidy.
I am grateful to this company for making my quality of life better. Anyone who has suffered from ingrown nails will understand this.
The company is very good to deal with as well. If you require customer service, they are prompt and professional.

Make sure you read instructions, follow everything perfectly and you won't have a problem. If you use too much glue or have difficulty applying them then the adhesive isn't as good and will pop off after few weeks. If you apply it correctly with not too much glue (see instructions in kit) then I felt that it stuck better. Avoid soaking and baths if you can (even though it says you can swim etc, I found it lasts longer if you don't). It does take time to apply them correctly!
Within a few hours I could feel pressure and slight discomfort as my toenail started to lift right away. It wasn't painful per day, but more tender that night and the next day. By day 3 it felt back to normal and I could already see improvements. My nail appeared flatter and less curved! I was shocked how fast it worked.
Now it's been only two weeks and these are my results!! I'm very pleased. I had to reapply the strips a few times.
I read that it may be best to keep them on for a full nail growth cycle for Chronic issues, so I plan to keep paying them for at least 4-5 months and hope that it is fixed permanently and doesn't go back. I'll update my post in the future.
