Nail Treatment Myths

There are many nail hardeners with different brands which claiming they can improve the nail structure and make them strengthened. These products work in different mechanism and so are having different efficacy and side effects. Some have temporarily satisfying effects but they work in a way that damages our nail in the long term.

FORMALDEHYDE

It is shocking to see that many famous products are still containing formaldehyde. It is a known human carcinogen. It is also an irritant to the eyes, nose and throat, and can lead to skin irritation and an allergic rash called dermatitis. It is a caustic agent and makes it’s temporarily false satisfying effect by hardening the nail surface through burning it. In-fact the nail structure is not improved in essence, but a burnt layer if form on that. Obviously, it not only has toxic effects, but also our nail will get weaker in the long term.

NAIL THICKENING

Others act like a lacquer and add a layer to nails. These products don’t improve the nail structure. They merely increase the thickness, giving a false sensation of strength.
In fact, they further damage our nail. Firstly because they damage the nails when they are to be wiped off by conventional nail polish removers.
Secondly they impose a load on nails. The later phenomenon makes serious damages to nails over time. Because the nail is not actually strengthened and the weak nail is just carrying an extra load. It damages the nail matrix resulting in the production of even weaker nails.

CREAMS

Phytocharm products act in a totally different and innovatory new way. These formulations are specifically designed to address different nail problems. These products implement an innovatory mechanism that has brought them to be patented in the United States.
Phytocharm products are neither toxic nor add a layer on nails. In fact they provide nails with the essential elements they need to grow with a strong and healthy structure. Because of that, the nail structure is improved in essence and totally naturally.
No layer is added to thicken the weak nail. As a result, your nails are not strengthened artificially. In fact you grow a nail, with previous normal thickness, while enjoying stable and strengthened structure. In other words now you own a nail that is naturally in the desired condition.
