LASER NAIL FUNGUS

–

Toenail Fungus is a living organism which is killed when the laser heat enters the nail bed and terminates the fungus. At Blair Med Spa our trained technicians use a Q-Switched NdYAG laser which is one of the most advanced dermatological lasers currently available for fungus removal. Impulses of high power laser energy pass through the nail to the nail bed and nail growth area with typically no damage to the nail or surrounding skin. At the time of the procedure, no visible change is seen until the nail begins to grow out. In a few months, a more normal nail is expected to appear with complete regrowth of the nail taking up to 9-12 months. This treatment works both on hands and feet. Most people do not feel any pain. Some patients may experience slight warmth or occasional snapping sensation during the procedure. If you have any pain during the procedure, the laser power can be decreased slightly to eliminate any pain. No anesthesia is needed.
