As self-applied manicures have gained popularity, it is important for physicians to remain informed about potential associated side effects. Traditional polish remains most popular among nail enthusiasts, but the pursuit of durability and convenience accelerated development of other nail cosmetic products, including gel polish, acrylic nails, and press-on nails. Despite documented adverse effects among beauty professionals and salon customers, individuals practicing at-home nail care routines may face similar, if not more, frequent complications due to misinformation, inadequate training, and social media trends.
This review provides an overview of adverse effects associated with different at-home nail cosmetics. Allergic contact dermatitis is the most prevalent adverse event, primarily attributed to (meth)acrylates found in nail glue, gel polish, and acrylic nails. Other adverse effects include infections, chemical burns, and complications from ultraviolet nail lamps.
The review highlights the importance of transparent product labeling and appropriate warning labels from manufacturers, as well as physician education and awareness for minimizing risks related to at-home nail cosmetic applications.
随着自行涂抹美甲日益流行，医生了解其潜在的相关副作用非常重要。传统指甲油在美甲爱好者中仍然最受欢迎，但对耐用性和便利性的追求加速了其他指甲美容产品的发展，包括凝胶指甲油、丙烯酸指甲和贴片指甲。尽管美容专业人员和沙龙顾客中已有不良反应的记录，但由于错误信息、培训不足和社交媒体趋势，在家进行指甲护理的个人可能面临类似甚至更频繁的并发症。
本综述概述了与不同家用指甲化妆品相关的不良反应。过敏性接触性皮炎是最常见的不良事件，主要归因于指甲胶、凝胶指甲油和丙烯酸指甲中含有的（甲基）丙烯酸酯。其他不良反应包括感染、化学灼伤以及紫外线美甲灯引起的并发症。
该综述强调了产品透明标签和制造商适当警示标签的重要性，以及医生开展教育并提高意识以尽量减少与家用指甲美容应用相关风险的重要性。
