IBX – Contraindications. When Should IBX System Not Be Used?

The IBX System is an innovative treatment designed to strengthen and regenerate the nail plate, but like any other treatment, it may not be suitable for everyone. Certain contraindications should be considered to ensure the safety and effectiveness of the procedure.

1. IBX – Contraindications: allergies to acrylic and oils

One of the main contraindications for the IBX System is an allergy to the ingredients used in the treatment, particularly:

Acrylic – Clients with an acrylic allergy may experience adverse reactions such as skin irritation, redness, burning, or rashes.
Natural oils – The products used in the IBX System contain oils, such as jojoba and avocado oil, which may cause allergic reactions in individuals sensitive to these ingredients.

It is important to conduct a client consultation before the treatment and, if necessary, perform a patch test to check for possible allergic reactions.

2. IBX – Contraindications: damaged skin around the nails

The procedure should not be performed if the skin around the nails is damaged, for example, due to cracks, abrasions, or inflammation. Contact between the product and open wounds may cause irritation and slow down the healing process.

3. IBX – Contraindications: skin and nail diseases

The IBX System should not be used on clients with certain skin and nail conditions, such as:

Nail fungus – In cases of fungal infection, medical treatment is required before any cosmetic procedure. The IBX System does not replace medical treatment and should not be applied to infected nails.
Nail psoriasis – Clients with nail psoriasis should consult a dermatologist, as some ingredients may irritate affected areas.

4. IBX – Contraindications: excessively brittle and severely damaged nails

While the IBX System is designed to restore weak nails, it may not deliver the expected results on extremely damaged nail plates. In such cases, it is recommended to first support nail recovery with treatments like nourishing conditioners or dietary supplementation before proceeding with IBX.

5. IBX – Contraindications: pregnancy and breastfeeding (precaution)

Although there are no direct contraindications for using the IBX System during pregnancy or breastfeeding, it is advisable to exercise caution and consult a doctor, especially if the client is sensitive to cosmetic ingredients or strong scents. Even though the products contain natural components, individual reactions can vary during this period.

6. IBX – Contraindications: lack of prior dermatological consultation

If there are concerns about nail health, such as discoloration, changes in shape, or thickening, a dermatologist should be consulted before the treatment. The IBX System should only be applied to healthy nails without any symptoms of underlying conditions.

In our opinion

The IBX System is an effective treatment for strengthening and regenerating nails, but it should not be used in cases of allergies to acrylic and oils, damaged skin, nail diseases, or other contraindications. It is essential to assess the condition of the client’s nails and skin before proceeding with the treatment to ensure safety and optimal results.
