For those who are interested or care, here is some small insight in my life.
I recently had surgery on my big toe on my left foot since the nail was growing in, again...
~7 years ago, when I was in high school I had both my big toes done since they both had ingrowing toe nails. It's hereditary
My sister had it too on one foot but was rid of it after her first surgery. My operations however were far from successful. On my right foot I still have a piece of nail that grows separately right next to my normal positioned nail. It's not in the way and doesn't hurt, yet... so we'll leave it be. On my left foot however the surgeon seemed to have made it worse. It also didn't help that the anaesthetics weren't working properly that operation -.- Local anaesthesia, you can imagine how much fun it was when you feel the cutting and burning 
This time I opted for a full sedation, I had a good nap ^^ This operation went far more pleasant than the previous one and I also didn't had the hellish recovering pain I remember from last time. Good surgeon this time I guess! I hope this was the third and last time...Pictures for the interested: Distant Shot - Close Up
