Has Anyone Had Their Toes/finger Nails Done For Surgery?



Recommended Posts

I had mine done the day before surgery. Toes are pink. Nails were Axxium gel. Clear with french tips. No problems.

Toes are ok--fingernails must be natural where I had my surgery done.

You will likely have an oxygen saturation/pulse monitor on your index finger. My preop instructions said no nail polish on fingers, and that your nail would be cut in the event that it interfered with the monitor. My toes were done and that did not cause an issue.

I left my fingers and toes sans polish but I would recommend waxing down there though for when they put the catheter in you. Just a thought

I had acrylic nails (solar nails) and my toes were painted. No one said anything...

I could have toes polished, but no polish on nails.

I had to take my polish off finger nails but could keep on toe nails if it was put on within 2 weeks because they said less chance of infection.
