they give you a numbing shot which hurts.

It will be not as wide this way....but you will never have another ingrown toe nail again. This takes more work for the podiatrist. Don't let them just remove the whole nail.
I wish you luck and courage.

Oh thank you so much for the info.
I will be just up front .... I love my pedicures and can’t imagine not have equal sized toe nails. Very few people would likely not even notice, but I sure would ! Hahaha
When I was working in medical many of my positions required business clothes and dreaded heels day in and out, pantyhose hose too ! In freaking Florida. Sadists I swear.
Now I wear mostly flat and boots so I don’t have chronic pain. I think I’ll hold off until they really come down do it.
