Toenail Fungal infections can be quite challenging to treat as reaching the fungi underneath the nail can be very difficult. The fungi are often resistant to common treatments such as prescription creams or pills. Long term use of these medications can have effects on the liver and kidneys.
Toenail fungus is not treated promptly and properly can lead to permanent damage to the nails, and possibly more serious health issues in those people with a weakened immune system.
Our Nd:Yag laser is a clinically proven effective treatment for clearing the appearance of toenail fungus. Most clients will require approximately 6 bi-weekly sessions to enhance the appearance of the nail, and results will be seen in 1-3 months. The laser penetrates the nail bed to target the fungi without harming the nail or surrounding tissue. Treatment usually takes 15-45 minutes depending on how many nails are being treated and the severity of the infection.
