Cheaper
A refill from €50 is significantly cheaper than a complete re-sculpt — and the result is just as fresh.

Nail Refill Vienna
Your gel is growing out? We fill the regrowth, renew the shape and shine — from €50 instead of re-sculpting from scratch.
What is a refill?
Refilling instead of re-sculpting
Gel nails grow out with your natural nail — after 3 to 4 weeks the regrowth becomes visible and the balance shifts towards the nail tip. That's exactly the right moment to refill.
At the refill the grown-out area is filled with fresh gel, the shape is filed back into place and the surface is sealed anew. Your set stays intact — you save time and money compared with a complete re-sculpt.
With us the refill costs from €50 — transparent and fair. If the old product is damaged or you want to switch completely, we remove it gently from €30.

03
Refilling
The grown-out regrowth is filled with fresh gel and the shape is precisely filed back into place.
-

Refill know-how
Everything you need to know about refilling
Spotting liftings — and reacting the right way
A lifting is a spot where the gel lifts off the natural nail — usually at the regrowth or along the side edges. You can spot it by a slightly milky shimmer, or by being able to feel a fine edge with your fingernail. Important: never pull or pick at it — you'll tear away healthy nail layers with it.
Small liftings are fixed within minutes at a nail refill: we file down the affected spot cleanly and fill it back up with fresh gel. Come in time and your set stays stable and your natural nail protected — that's exactly why the 3–4-week rhythm is so important with a gel refill.
Refill instead of re-sculpting — the honest cost calculation
Let's do the maths: a refill costs from €50 with us. Anyone who puts off the refill appointment for months risks liftings, breaks and, in the worst case, a complete re-sculpt — that is, removing the old product (from €30) plus a new build-up (from €70). The regular refill is therefore not only the more nail-friendly but also clearly the cheaper option.
Then there's the time factor: a gel refill takes around 60 minutes with us — a complete re-sculpt considerably longer. So anyone who has their nails refilled instead of redone saves money and time. And because the surface is reworked anyway at a refill, every appointment is the chance for a new colour, French or chrome — with no surcharge drama.

Common situations
Refill cases from everyday studio life
"My gel is from another studio — will you refill it?"
Yes, in most cases without any problem. We take a quick look at the product and its condition: if the set is neatly done and free of large-area liftings, we refill it as normal from €50. Only if the old product is unsuitable or damaged do we honestly recommend a fresh build-up — including gentle removal from €30.
Just bring five minutes more time to the first appointment. After the first refill we know your nails — and from then on everything runs in the usual rhythm.
"A nail is broken — do I have to have everything redone?"
No! A single broken or cracked nail is a repair, not a disaster: we rebuild it to match the others — shape, length and colour are matched exactly. This can often be done at short notice between two regular appointments too.
Only one thing matters: don't "pull it smooth" or tear it off yourself. The more intact the break arrives with us, the more invisible the repair will be.
Frequently asked
Nail refill — FAQ
How often should you have gel nails refilled?
Every 3 to 4 weeks — depending on how fast your nails grow. At the latest when the regrowth is clearly visible or the nail tip feels heavy, it's time for a refill.
How long does a refill take?
About 60 minutes. With a colour change, French or design it can take a little longer — we'll tell you the time frame when you book.
How much does a nail refill cost in Vienna?
With us the gel refill costs from €50, incl. shape and sealing. Design extras such as French (from €10) or chrome (from €5) can be added optionally.
Can I change the colour at the refill?
Yes, any time! At the refill the surface is reworked anyway — the perfect moment for a new colour, French or babyboomer.
What happens if I wait too long for the refill?
The balance of the set shifts, and liftings and breaks can occur. Then the product often has to be removed completely (from €30) and re-sculpted — a regular refill is the cheaper and more nail-friendly option.
