Toenail appearance matters for many of our patients. To the point that they purposefully choose closed-in sandals over the
summer, wear socks around their home, or feel they must constantly have their nails painted, which may cause even more damage. Yes, toenails
may seem like such small things, but if you’re living with nails that have turned white or yellow, have become thick or distorted, or
are brittle and flaky, then you may know - you’d do anything to reverse time and have them be healthy and clear again.
This is where we have good news. Our podiatrists can fix your nails. In three ways.
Keryflex is a popular way to get clear, healthy-looking nails in a single visit with us. Yep - it’s as instant as it gets! With Keryflex, your podiatrist moulds and creates a new flexible, breathable and natural-looking nail over your existing damaged nail. The best part? We do it without causing any damage to your nails beneath - which makes this treatment very different from any other nail salon ‘artificial’ alternative out there. Your nail gets to grow out in a healthy environment and be primed to look fantastic once the Keryflex nail is removed.
Keryflex is perfect if you’re unhappy with the current look of your toenails, such as if they’re discoloured (often white, yellow, brown, or green), flaky or brittle, look moth-eaten, or anything else similar.
Our Remuera podiatry team is renowned for our medical pedicures, which give you professional nail care without the stress or worry over fungal or other infections from unsterilised instruments, as we see in many nail salons.
In our medical pedicures, a few of the steps include trimming your nails and reducing their thickness using a medical burr over the nail. This actually goes a long way to helping improve the appearance of toenails for many people:
A big difference with our Perform Podiatry team compared to any traditional nail and skin services is that we follow very strict infection control protocols to a medical level that you just don’t get outside of a medical or health-focused clinic like ours. Safe foot care is particularly important if your feet are considered high risk from conditions such as diabetes or problems with wound healing.
Fungal nail infections are the most common reason toenails lose their lovely, healthy appearance. Nail fungus damages toenails by feeding on
the keratin, which is what your nails are made of and gives them strength. Over time, this damage leaves nails looking less than ideal: they
may become streaky, discoloured, brittle, flaky, or crumbly. Unfortunately, fungal nail infections don’t get better on their own. They
actually worsen, making the nail more damaged and unsightly.
This is where PACT + Laser Antifungal Treatment can make a big difference. We are proud to be Auckland’s only podiatry clinic offering a dual-action fungal nail treatment that combines PACT® LED photodynamic therapy with high-level K-Laser therapy—a powerful, non-invasive option for stubborn fungal infections.
Most clinics use a single approach—often relying on topical creams, oral antifungals, or standalone laser sessions.
At Perform Podiatry, we take it several steps further by combining two advanced, evidence-based technologies to
address the infection from multiple angles.
This combined approach enhances success rates and helps reduce recurrence—without oral medication, pain, or downtime.
Once the fungus is gone, your nail is free to grow healthy and strong. Keep in mind that no antifungal treatment can reverse the damage already done to the nail, but PACT ensures that the new nail growth will be clear and healthy. During this regrowth period, many people opt for Keryflex Nail Restoration over the nail, which has your nails looking healthy, clear, and polished (in one appointment) while the natural nail recovers.
Don’t worry, we absolutely understand. We can help you find the best treatment for your circumstances - book in for a consultation and we can go through all of your options. If you’re not sure if you have a fungal nail infection, that’s absolutely fine too - we offer a quick test in our clinic where we test your nail sample and know within 5-10 minutes if you have a fungal nail infection and would benefit from antifungal care, or if your nail appearance changes are being caused by something else.

There’s been a lot of buzz about going barefoot. Some say it helps strengthen feet and improves performance, while others warn it can do more harm than good. The truth? It depends on the person, the surface, and how it’s done.
At Perform Podiatry, we specialise in conservative, evidence-based treatments that are safe, effective, and suitable for patients of all ages. One of the most successful options we offer is high-strength salicylic acid therapy.
When most people think of podiatry, they picture orthotics, skin/nail care, or sports injury treatment. But podiatry isn’t just about what’s
happening mechanically in your feet, it’s also about supporting the body’s natural healing processes.
One treatment that’s gaining popularity in podiatric care is acupuncture — a technique with ancient roots and modern
scientific backing.
Keeping your family on their feet and helping them to walk, run, play and exceed their goals is why we love getting up in the morning.
