Nail Plate Regeneration After a Failed Manicure




An improperly performed manicure can cause long-term damage to the natural nail. Excessive filing, aggressive removal of gel or shellac, strong chemicals, and lack of hygiene often lead to:
Brittle and splitting nails
Thin and sensitive nail plates
Inflamed or injured cuticles
Slowed or deformed nail growth
At the MONLIS School in Munich, the leading institute for manicure and pedicure education, we teach not only professional treatment techniques, but also targeted methods for regenerating damaged nails.
Common Causes of Nail Damage
The most frequent reasons for nail damage after manicures include:
Over-filing the nail surface
Improper removal of coatings with metal tools
Harsh chemicals, such as long acetone soaks
Lack of care between appointments
Unskilled techniques that ignore nail anatomy
Such practices can lead not only to aesthetic issues, but also to infections, pain, and chronic nail conditions.
Signs of a Damaged Nail Plate
Common symptoms of a compromised nail include:
A dull or patchy appearance
Ridges or uneven surfaces
Peeling or flaking layers
Sensitivity to pressure or pain
Inflamed cuticles or lateral nail folds
These should not be covered up with polish, but rather treated with proper care and attention.
Step-by-Step Regeneration Plan by MONLIS School
1. Diagnosis and Assessment
First, we perform a detailed analysis of the nails. At MONLIS School, students learn how to identify causes and assess the degree of damage.
2. Gentle Cleansing and Disinfection
The nail area is carefully cleaned of product residue using pH-neutral and antibacterial products—without filing or aggressive removal techniques.
3. Use of Regenerating Products
We train with high-quality formulas containing keratin, biotin, vitamin E, panthenol, and calcium—supporting structure, strength, and recovery.
4. Nourishing Oils and Massage
Regular application of cuticle oils (e.g., jojoba, almond, argan) combined with light hand massages stimulates growth and nourishes the surrounding skin.
5. No Decorative Coatings During Recovery
To support healing, we recommend pausing the use of nail polish, gel, or shellac during the regeneration phase, allowing the nail plate to "breathe."
6. Home Care Instructions
We teach students how to create individual care routines for clients to follow at home—ensuring long-term nail health and sustained results.
What You Learn at MONLIS School
Students gain in-depth knowledge in:
Nail anatomy and natural structure
Recognizing damage and differentiating from pathology
Understanding active ingredients in care products
Practical application and massage techniques
Client consultations and recovery planning
Developing custom home care routines
When Is Professional Nail Regeneration Necessary?
You or your client may need a professional nail recovery plan if:
Nails remain soft and thin for weeks
Peeling, splitting, or breaking occurs regularly
The cuticle area stays inflamed or painful
Even light pressure causes discomfort
Nail polish no longer adheres properly
In these cases, decorative coating is not the solution—regeneration is.
A healthy nail plate is the foundation of every successful manicure. After a poor treatment, it takes patience, knowledge, and targeted care to restore strength and beauty. At MONLIS School in Munich, we teach effective and gentle regeneration methods for long-lasting nail health.
Whether you're looking to advance your skills or regain healthy nails as a client, MONLIS School is your trusted destination for expert education and high standards in beauty care.
