Curing UV gel for too little time can result in which of the following issues?

Curing UV gel for an insufficient amount of time can lead to service breakdown, skin irritation, and skin sensitivity. This is primarily because UV gels are designed to undergo a polymerization process when exposed to UV light. If this process is not allowed to fully complete due to inadequate curing time, the gel remains in a partially cured state, which can compromise the structural integrity of the nail enhancement.

When the gel does not cure properly, it may not adhere well to both the natural nail and any overlay materials, leading to instability in the nail structure which can cause the product to chip, lift, or break away. Additionally, because partially cured gel may continue to emit harmful substances, this can result in skin irritation or increased sensitivity for clients after the application. Overall, ensuring that UV gel is cured for the correct amount of time is essential to prevent these complications and to achieve a durable and aesthetically pleasing result.
