KeryFlex Nail Restoration is a painless, in-office application that restores the appearance of an individual’s natural nails. This system remodels an individual’s damaged nails affected by fungus, defects or trauma. The composite resin creates a flexible, but durable, non-porous nail that allows the remaining natural nail to grow. The KeryFlex nail is an immediate cosmetic improvement providing a natural-looking nail. It is unaffected by acetone, nail polishes or detergents.
The KeryFlex Nail Restoration System consists of three components:
-
KeryFlex Bonding Agent optimizes the adhesion of the KeryFlex Resin to the natural nail.
-
KeryFlex Resin is a lightweight, medical-grade gel used to build up the nail and allows for sculpting and contouring
-
KeryFlex Sealant is a UV curing top coat to seal the KeryFlex nail making it non-porous and non-permeable.
