| Vertical Ridges |
Vertical Ridges are also characteristic of aging, although
are not limited to the aged or elderly. The nail plate grows
forward on the nail bed in a 'rail and groove' effect, much like a
train rides on its' tracks. As we age, the natural oil and
moisture levels decline in the nail plate, and this rail and groove
effect becomes apparent. Ridged nails will improve through
re-hydration of the nail plate with twice daily applications of a
good quality nail and cuticle oil containing Jojoba and Vitamin E.
