Completely gone. Was badly ingrown and after a doctor removed it three times and it grew back ingrown again every time they just destroyed the root completely.

    wtf, they took the whole nail off!? Not that I'd really mind, for the reasons you've stated. Ingrown toenails somehow run in my family, but when I get the permanent procedure done the doctor still just removes a slice off on the side. What made them do the entire nail?

    Lucky, they tried to do the same for me, but they didn't get all of it. It's rather annoying at times, but I'll take it over the ingrown toenails.

    The same happened to one of mine. The doctor said it might stay gone after I removed it on my own (it was easy and painless) but it still came back again so we let it grow out a little until they could do their thing again. I don't remember it being as bad the second time because there wasn't much nail that survived the first round, so it was really just clean up. It never came back again after round two.
