Laser Nail Treatment Procedure:
The laser sends invisible laser energy into and through the nail and/or surrounding skin that is absorbed by the fungal organisms causing them to heat.
The heat damages or kills the organisms. If all of the fungal organisms are killed, your toenail could grow out normally.
The nail clearance you may experience is dependent upon your individual circumstances and should be discussed with your doctor.
What to Expect:
Your toenails will be cleaned and filed prior to the laser treatment.
Most patients only feel warmth during the treatment and the laser treatment can be reduced or ended if the procedure becomes uncomfortable. The laser procedure will take about 30 minutes to treat both feet and there is usually no discomfort after the treatment.
Your doctor will discuss post-treatment care to avoid fungal re-infection. You may return to your normal daily routine immediately after your toenail treatment.
You will notice results within 2-4 months, depending on how quickly toenails grow. New, clear growth begins to appear at the bottom portion of your nail as the diseased portion of the nail grows out.
