Get answers to common questions about Polygel.

Polygel sets typically last 3–4 weeks before a fill is recommended, depending on nail growth, lifestyle, and aftercare. Proper fills extend longevity, and many clients return every three weeks to maintain shape and strength.

Polygel is generally gentler than acrylics because it's lighter and requires less filing, reducing stress on natural nails. Proper application and removal are crucial; choose a trained technician to minimize damage and preserve nail health.

Polygel applications typically take 60–90 minutes, depending on length, nail prep, and art complexity. Simple overlays may be quicker, while extendo lengths or custom designs require additional time. We schedule accordingly to ensure precise, comfortable service.
