The delivery device and application allows accurate delivery of the phenol to the nail matrix where the phenol will create a chemical cauterisation during ablation. The glass ampoule and plastic delivery system significantly reduces the potential and risk of phenol coming into contact with skin, clothing or surfaces prior to the procedure.
Furthermore, by using SafeTPen during the ablation of the nail matrix, it prevents the risk of phenol spilling over into the sulci during delivery or over the eponychium and underneath the tourniquet.
