The nail fungus solution from N1 made a good impression in the test. It is an innovative medical product that supports the treatment of nail fungus. Treating nail fungus is a lengthy process that often takes several months, but can be simplified with the right product.
The product is certified throughout the EU and contains the patented active ingredient ISK 1320, which has already proven its worth. It also contains essential oils that care for the cuticle and nail. N1 Nail Fungus Solution creates an unfavorable environment on the nail surface for the growth and spread of fungi. Regular filing of the infected nail removes the fungus layer by layer over weeks and months. It is important to note that no product can “kill” the fungus in a short time. It takes time, patience and regularity, but the N1 nail fungus solution supports the customer along the way.
To summarize, the product is an effective support in the treatment of nail fungus and can be recommended due to its ease of use and high-quality ingredients.
