This is a description of what is visible in your photo, not a diagnosis. Many nail changes look alike, so only a specialist who sees your nail in person can tell what is behind it.

Why nails change

Many causes, one look.

A yellow, thick or brittle nail can have many causes, and they often look alike. That is why a specialist needs to see it in person.

Is my photo private?

Your photo and details only go to Penelope Gomes Beauty, with your consultation request. You can ask for them to be deleted at any time.

Will it tell me what I have?

No. After you send it, we describe what is visible in your photo, such as colour or thickness, but that is not a diagnosis. A specialist looks at your nail in person at the free consultation.

Do I have to book?

No. Sending your photo is free and so is the consultation, with no obligation.

Questions

Before you start.

What does nail fungus look like?

Often a yellow, brown or white nail that gets thicker, crumbly at the edge, or lifts from the skin. It usually starts at the tip or side and spreads slowly, most often on the big toe. Psoriasis, injuries and ageing can look very similar, which is why a professional check matters.

Does it go away by itself?

Rarely. It tends to spread slowly to more of the nail and to other nails, so it is easier to deal with early.

How is it treated at Penelope Gomes Beauty?

At your free consultation a specialist looks at your nails and explains the options, including laser treatment, and how many sessions it usually takes.

What happens to my photo?

It is kept with your consultation request so the specialist can see it, and never used for anything else without asking you. See the Privacy policy.
