Nail fungus is a common infection that people all over the world can end up with. When people do become infected with nail fungus they often wonder how they can be treated. Treatment options include oral and topical medications, as well as the relatively new laser treatment. While new does not automatically mean better, the PinPointe laser has quickly proven to be one of the overall best choices for treating nail fungus infections.

While medications require your attention day after day, the PinPointe laser typically requires only one treatment. It is true that you may need to pay attention to some follow-up care after the nail fungus laser treatment. But this does not compare to the time you will spend with other kinds of treatments. Perhaps more importantly, with nail fungus laser treatment you will not have to worry about any potential side effects that can be worse than the actual treatment itself. If you were to use a medication such as Lamisil, you might end up with harmful side effects such as liver damage.

It’s time to stop waiting. Nail fungus will continue to get worse over time if it is not treated. Luckily for you, as nail fungus laser treatment becomes more common, it is now easier than ever to find a foot doctor who uses a PinPointe laser in your area. If you’re on the fence about trying laser treatment you should seek out a free consultation with a podiatrist. The sooner you decide what treatment to use, the sooner you will be nail fungus-free.

Laser Treatment for Toenail Fungus

If you have caught nail fungus, it can be easily treated using the FDA-approved PinPointe laser, which typically only takes on treatment. Other treatments like topical solutions and oral medication are not as effective. Topical solutions have a very low cure rate. This is because the solution does not penetrate all the way through the nail bed.  This is because it can lead to liver toxicity. You would need to have consistent blood tests throughout the course of taking the medication. 

Our nail doctor in Longmont, CO recommends this treatment for Toenail Fungus. The PinPointe Laser treatment has the highest cure rate in the market. It has no side effects and no recovery period. As a result, you can go about your daily activities right after the treatment. Also, it is not painful.
