F.A.Q. REGARDING FUNGAL NAIL LASER TREATMENT

HOW LONG DOES THE PROCEDURE TAKE?

The complete procedure to treat all 10 toes takes less than 30 minutes.

 

IS THERE A RECOVERY PERIOD?

No. You can walk out immediately after the treatment pain-free.

 

HOW LONG HAS THIS TREATMENT BEEN AVAILABLE?

Clinical studies on Fungus Toenails were initiated in 2007.

 

WHEN IS IT SAFE TO PAINT MY NAILS OR HAVE A PEDICURE AFTER TREATMENT?

pedicures and the application of nail polish can be done immediately after laser treatment.

 

IS THE TREATMENT PAINFUL?

Most patients feel no sensation whatsoever.  Some may feel a slight warming sensation while a few may feel a slight pin-pricking sensation.

 

WILL THE FUNGUS GROW BACK?

The infection is cleared after a few treatments.  As the fungus is present everywhere in the environment there is a risk of re-infection.  Your foot specialist will advise you and recommend techniques to help reduce recurrence of the infection.
