Nail fungal infection laser is a treatment that purposely designed to permanently kill toenail or fingernails fungus. The nail fungus treatments options vary depending on the patient’s condition and severity of the infection. If you are seeking a fast, minimally invasive procedure, this treatment will provide you with the best result as the energy are narrow and targeted specifically to the affected areas.
The laser treatment utilised for this treatment is the Candela GentleYAG laser which works at a very specific wavelength (1064nm). The laser energy penetrates through the nail to the nail plate, to destroy the fungus through photocoagulation. Fungal spores will be targeted and be reduced in the months following treatment, and in the majority of patients, these spores can be completely removed from the skin surface, allowing the nail to grow back normally.
The non-ablative energy from the laser treatment heats up the skin tissue, without destroying it and triggers natural healing processes. The laser procedure works by eliminating the fungal organisms and also allows your body to heal and rejuvenate without risk of infection. Other benefits of nail fungal infection laser treatment include:
At Premier Clinic, we may also decide to use a combination of nail infection treatments in order to maximise the chances of a successful recovery. Combinations may include uses of topical anti-fungal cream, anti-fungal tablets or surgical removal, but this will vary depending on the patient’s situation as well as the initial diagnosis.
Also known as onychomycosis, fungal infections in the toenails are common and affect a large number of adults in Asia. It is usually painless and may only be symptomised by some discolouration and a thickened nail – this often means that many individuals are not aware of their nail infection.
Dermatophytes and candida are the most common fungi that cause infections, but both of these may be treated similarly. The laser is theorised to exert antifungal activity when the fungal cells absorb the heat, which kills the microbe. The ability to penetrate the full thickness of the toenails what leads to the promising results by eliminating the infection and leaves a new healthy toenail.
