Dr. Remedy’s Organic Polish

Dr. Adam Cirlincione and Dr. William Spielfogel are board certified practicing Podiatric Surgeons based in New York who founded Dr.’s Remedy to address the needs of their patients. Both doctors have spent years of study and training in the field of Podiatry. Although, skilled surgeons, they realize a top reason patients come into their office is because of brittle, discolored nails, often times associated with the harsh chemicals found in nail polish. As physicians they have always been interested in the products their patients use and only want the best for their patients.

After treating patients for many years with a wide variety of podiatric concerns they joined together to create a product line that would address their patients’ desire to address the appearance of dry, brittle discolored nails. Frequently, during the course of their podiatry treatment, patients want to cover up unsightly nails or enhance the appearance of their nails.

Dr.’s REMEDY offers over 30 different shades of nail color along with nail care products such as base coat, top coat, cuticle care and a nail hydration. Each product is infused with a special blend of ingredients selected by Dr. Cirlincione and Dr. Spielfogel. This blend includes: wheat protein, tea tree oil, garlic bulb extract and lavender. Dr.’s Remedy products do not contain formaldehyde, formaldehyde resin, toluene, camphor or phthalates or DBP. Dr.’s REMEDY is the best alternative to traditional nail polish.

Dr. Cirlincione and Dr. Spielfogel are both Fellows of the American College of Foot and Ankle Surgeons. They routinely lecture to residents and fellow podiatrists and are authors of numerous published articles.

Q: HOW LONG WILL DR.’S REMEDY® ENRICHED NAIL POLISH LAST ON MY NAILS?

A: Dr.’s REMEDY wears just like traditional nail polish—about 5 to 7 days on fingers and 2 to 3 weeks on toes.

Q: HOW OFTEN SHOULD I CHANGE MY POLISH?

A: As podiatrists, we recommend patients change their polish every 10 days and to go polish free for a few days before re-applying nail color. Nail polish is occlusive and can deplete the natural oils from the nail and cuticles around the nail. Leaving your nails polish free for a few days allow the nails to rehydrate. It is also a good idea to apply cuticle oil day and night. This will also help to hydrate both your nails and your cuticles.

Q: ANY TIPS TO ENSURE MY MANICURE AND PEDICURE LAST?

A: To maximize the wearability of you manicure, try these tips:

• Always use base coat and top coat.

• Let each coat dry a minimum of 60 seconds before applying the next.

• Give your polish 30 – 45 minutes to completely dry.

• Re-apply a clear top coat every 3 days.

• Apply hand and foot cream as well as cuticle oil often.
