If you have diabetes, circulation issues, fungal nails, or thick calluses, request a medical or podiatric pedicure. The specialist uses sterilized instruments, checks for infections, and avoids sharp blades on diabetic feet. Sessions take 60 to 75 minutes and cost more, but reduce the risk of wounds, ingrown nails, and cross-contamination.
Gel polish resists chips for up to 21 days but requires acetone soaking for 15–20 minutes to remove, which can dry the nail bed. Regular polish dries in 10 to 15 minutes and removes easily, but chips within a week. For events more than 2 weeks away, gel is worth the extra cost; for short-term wear, regular is safer.
Ask how the foot bath is disinfected, what autoclave cycle is used, and whether files and buffers are disposable. Ask the technician's training and years of practice. Confirm the exact duration, the polish brand, and whether gel removal costs extra. A clear answer to each question is the strongest sign of a serious, clean service.
A full standard pedicure takes 45 to 60 minutes. Add 15 minutes if you want gel polish or callus removal with an electric file. Express services last 20 to 30 minutes and skip the foot bath and massage. Confirm the duration when you book to plan your visit and avoid rushing the technician.
A medical pedicure, also called a chiropody, is performed by a podiatrist using sterile instruments. It treats ingrown nails, thickened nails, corns and fungal infections. Sessions last 30 to 45 minutes and cost more than a beauty pedicure. Book this option if you have diabetes, circulation problems or recurring nail pain.
Keep feet dry for 24 hours after a pedicure to let the polish cure fully. Warning signs include redness, swelling, pain around the nail fold, pus or greenish discoloration on the nail plate. These symptoms may signal an infection that needs a doctor within 48 hours. Report problems to the salon and seek medical advice.
A basic pedicure ranges from 25 to 45 in many areas. Prices rise by 10 to 20 when you add gel, callus removal, or paraffin wax. Salons in busy districts charge more due to rent. Mobile services add 10 to 25 for travel time and setup. Ask for a written quote before booking.
Tools should come out of a sealed sterilization pouch or be visibly cleaned with hospital-grade disinfectant. Foot baths need to be disinfected between every client, not only rinsed. Linbow boards, buffers, and pumice stones must be single-use or replaced. Watch for dirty towels, reused files, and technicians who skip hand washing before starting.
Ingrown nails appear within 1 to 3 weeks when corners are cut too short or rounded. Fungal infections show as yellow, thick nails 2 to 8 weeks later, often from unsterilized tools. Cuticle damage causes redness and small infections. If pain, swelling, or pus appears, contact a podiatrist and avoid home removal of any skin growth.
Paraffin wax treatments add 10 to 15 minutes and soften rough heels with warm mineral oil. Callus peel masks use acids over 7 to 10 days. Hot stone massage adds 15 minutes. French polish, ombre gradients, or nail art can extend the appointment by 20 to 40 minutes depending on detail. Confirm the total time before booking.
