Excilor Nail Fungus Treatment Ultra, Extra Strong Anti-Fungal treatment to Re...

About six weeks since purchasing - daily use. One toe is almost completely fungal free (but was much less infected). The other is greatly improved. You can see on the photo there’s only a small area left, and that whole nail was fungal and discoloured. I’ve tried all sorts over 10/11 years, different creams and even prescribed medication. This has been the only thing to have ever fully worked, and it’s so simple to apply. Just painting a toenail, no plasters, scraping, filing, or soaking the nail beforehand. Touch dry within minutes. Product itself has a medicinal smell to it and paints on white. You only need a thin layer. It’s a smallish bottle for the cost, but you don’t use much per application and it has a two year shelf life. Dries clear with a rubbery texture which feels like it might come off or is tacky. As long as it’s clear, it’s dry, not tacky, and won’t come off. I walk 17/18000 steps a day for work, and it doesn’t rub off on my socks. Isn’t too difficult to remove - after a shower or bath is definitely easier, but unnecessary. Rubbing hard along the cuticle with my thumb I’ve found will lift it, and then it peels straight off like a layer of film. It doesn’t irritate your skin if you do get it on, but it does make it harder to peel off. I wouldn’t leave it on skin though, just in case you have a reaction. I do it at night, before I settle down. Give it a good few minutes to properly dry before putting socks on or getting into bed. Good luck, hope you get decent results too. I’m going to continue to treat both toes at least until the bottle runs out. I’ll update if the results change.

I have suffered with two heavily infected fungal toenails for almost 20 years (left little toe and the one next to it), that would spread to the surrounding skin causing recurring athlete's foot that I would treat, it would clear, and then come back, with the nails as the source of reinfection. The nails would become very thick and brittle, splitting right down the centre the whole length of the nail over the nail bed causing bleeding and pain. I tried products prescribed by the GP that you paint on and then file down after a week for a six month period. Didn't even touch the infection. I tried a range of other Excilor products. None of them worked, either. In pure desperation, I ended up buying this. The instructions say to use it for a month, but if you have a heavy infection, it is going to take MUCH longer. I have been using it for 8 months now, and one nail is clear: it went a bit strange and then completely came off. I kept treating the area, and it grew back healthy! I'm onto my second bottle (the original hadn't finished, but it becomes less effective and takes longer to dry with time). My little toenail split and fell off a couple of weeks ago. It takes ages to grow back, so I'm hoping it is going to come back healthy. I will keep treating until this bottle runs out. It is easy to use - have a shower, dry your feet, paint it on and let it dry. The following day, peel it off in the shower (it peels of very easily in warm water) and repeat the treatment. You MUST, however, remember to use it every day because this stuff is not fungicidal - it just stops it growing and the infection is displaced by new nail growth (unless the infected nail simply drops off like mine did). When you forget the treatment, the fungus will recover.

I have only used this for a few days, so don't yet know how it works. It suggests using for three months, but I find it difficult to remove every evening, so not sure I will be able to keep it up that long. When coated, the nail feels rubbery and this should be removed and replaced every 24 hours. However, I soak my toe nails before hand, but still struggle to get it off. I have used scissors to try and scrape it, then pull off the stretchy coating. Not too bad on the large nail, but very difficult on my smaller ones. May end up reverting to a more normal product that you leave on.

I started using this in March on a very mild case. I used it carefully every day - following the instructions to the letter. Unlike others I found it easy to apply and easy to remove and apply again. All I can say is that it did not make the issue any worse but it definitely did NOT bring about any signs of improvement. It was like applying a latex paint to your nail which you remove the next day. I don’t fee their was any ingredient that was tackling the problem. It is now June and I’ve had enough - I have started using Curanail (having had success with this before) immediately I feel like it’s making a difference. It feels like it is getting to the heart of the issue instead of just masking it. Although it will take time I feel Curanail will sort my problem out - I am annoyed I wasted time with this product and would ideally like my money back... Needless to say I do not recommend…
