Excilor Nail Fungus Treatment Pen

This stuff works. I have had a fungal nail infection in my little toe for a good few years now, to the point where the nail becomes brittle and splits down the centre, making it very painful. It also recurrently spreads to the surrounding skin giving me athlete's foot. I went to the doctor and he prescribed a nail lacquer that is painted on, and I had to do this for six months three times a week, spending ages filing the nail each time and sterilising everything with alcohol rubs. After all this faffing around, it didn't work, and the infection spread to the nail next to it (I can only imagine through the dust from the nail filings). Anyway, I gave up with that, and went to the local chemist to see what they had. I noticed this stuff. It acts by altering the acidity of the nail and the nailbed so the fungus does not have optimal growth conditions. It weakens the fungus and eventually destroys it. It is used twice a day and you simply use the pen to "colour in" your toenail on top and under the edge. Clip off the infected parts of the nail as they grow out. That's it. No filing, sterilising, breathing in toenail/fungus dust, etc. It takes 30 seconds to treat my two nails. I have been using it for four weeks, and the nails are improving greatly. I am still using my first pen, but have ordered another, since it is important not to miss a single treatment and to carry on for a few months afterwards to ensure the infection is clear.

This stuff is the only one that has had any effect on my persistently infected big toe nail. It does work but it's still a long job. I tried this rather than the brush on variety as it should in theory work out cheaper but I found that it seems to dry out very quickly. Luckily I found a spinner I could 3D print which seems to be extending the life. I think my nail is now probably clear but want to keep on the attack until it is all completely grown out which will take a while.

Completely dry, unable to use.

I bought this product after seeing some pictures of nail infections and was aware I had an infection too. It has been ongoing for about 2 years but recently got a little worse. Only have it on one big toenail but wanted to be rid of it. I have been using the treatment twice aday for 8 weeks and I am amazed at the results so far! There is now about a 1/3 of clear new grown of nail and no sign of any more discolouration. Will probably take a few more months for the old nail to grow out but that's fine as I know it is finally going to be nice clear nail again. For the ladies I will mention that in the morning I wash the nail, put on the lotion, let it dry ( about 2-3 mins ) then put a coat of a light colour nail varnish over it which covers the old discolouration well. It looks like normal when I do this and putting on the varnish does not seem to inhibit the effectiveness of the treatment. I have read that with some other treatments it is not adviseable to use nail varnish but this seems fine with it. At night I remove the varnish, wash and repeat treatment. It's working so well I am very happy with the results so far. Would definitely recommend this product. I have not tried any others but don't need to now. This one works for me.

I've been using the product for about one month and the best I can report is the nail seems to be less thick and a little lighter in colour. The new growth may be a little lighter again. Realistically, especially after reading other reviews, I did not expect a big change quickly as I have had one problem nail for years. I've been to the doctor who tested scrapings and everything came back clear. It's just a discoloured, somewhat brittle nail. I've never used any other product (mainly because they are so much more expensive) so I can't compare but Excilor is really easy to apply - just paint on twice a day - and totally painless. They quote about 500 applications in one "pen" (I think) so I've only used about 60 so I should have lots left. When it runs out, if there is a definite improvement but not fully cured, it is very likely that I would buy some more.

Excellent when it is in use.

Fungal infections are very difficult to get rid of because they reproduce at a racing speed under the right conditions. As an example think about how fast bread dough rises in a warm moist atmosphere. If the fungus is reproducing faster than a treatment kills it then you're not going to get rid of the infection easily. I used to be a chiropodist and I'm very aware of how slow a toenail regrows compared to a fingernail. Because of the speed of fungal reproduction, finger nails will take several months to recover. Toenails grow much more slowly so will take much longer than finger nails, especially if your circulation's not too good (you need circulation to grow the nail out). I believe that you need to see a treated nail grow out completely several times before you see an infection vanish completely. I received a prescribed systemic treatment from my doctor. It was supposed to be a 6 month treatment, but 12 months passed before I saw any change. My doc took me off the treatment because it was taking too long and might have a negative impact on my liver. So, I've been trying Excilor for 2-3 months on thumb and first finger, and my first pen is just about to finish. I can only just see a small response. It's too soon yet to make a damning or praising comment but response does seem to be positive and I've not seen any 100% positive reviews for any particular product yet by anyone from the Uk
