Devices are listed only where a provider's own public sources name them. A device is hardware, not a technique. A listing shows what a provider publicly lists — not stock, regulatory availability or that it will be offered to a particular patient — and is not an endorsement of the device or the provider. LimbAtlas does not compare devices on safety, outcomes or regulatory status. Confirm current details directly with a provider. Illustrations are simplified editorial representations, not engineering drawings; where a device has no documented distinguishing visual features, its device-type illustration is used.

How it works, at a high level

LimbplastX's history of lengthening nails describes the ISKD as lengthening through small rotations at the surgical break in the bone, using a double-clutch mechanism.

LimbAtlas has not cited manufacturer documentation for the ISKD and makes no statement about whether it is still manufactured or commercially available. A provider listing it shows only that the provider publicly lists it; several provider pages mention it only historically.
