Thick, Yellow, Fungus Nails: The Solution

Spring is in the air! This means it is time for picnics, going to the park, laying out reading a book and breaking out those sandals and flip flops. Unfortunately, not everyone is proud of their little piggies and some people try to cover them up. This is often because of thick, yellow, fungus nails that we are ashamed to show the world. But, no need to worry; we’ve got the cure from you.

Laser therapy is a technological advancement that allows specific wavelengths to be used that promote growth and repair of the nail while killing the fungus. It is a non-invasive procedure and the most that a patient will feel is a bit of warmth from the laser beam. The laser therapy stimulate growth and healing by increasing the circulation to the affected area, your toenails. This increased circulation allows your body to bring the necessary healing cells within your body to the site. This then allows your body to repair itself leaving you with those gorgeous toenails you want to show off to the world. 

The laser functions to heat up the fungus and kill it directly. This is different than other creams, formulas or even oral medications that you have tried because it is working directly on the fungus as opposed to treating an area or the entire system. This explains why people who have tried an entire medicine cabinet’s worth of products and have not had success will see a difference with the laser treatment.

The nail requires 2-3 months of treatment before you will see results. Additionally, the entire nail takes about 6-8 months to completely be replaced. Therefore, this is a slow process, but it was one that will leave your nails looking better than ever.

The only current contraindications to this treatment are pregnant women and if there is a tumor within this area. Other than that, the procedure is harmless. So, there is no reason that you should not get your feet back out into the world. This is the perfect time of year to do it, because you will start seeing results by the time you are ready to hit the beach.
