Nail fungus laser treatment is the best option to be cured. So you have symptoms of nail fungus and have made the health-conscious choice of choosing to seek treatment for it. Great! Nail fungus may be new to you. This may lead you to wonder what to expect when you come in for your treatment. This article can help you come in prepared about what will happen during your nail fungus treatment. 

How does the laser treatment work?

Initially, your doctor will perform a consultation on you to diagnose you with nail fungus. Usually this will not require any tests, and your doctor will be able to diagnose you upon inspection since they have treated thousands of cases of nail fungus and are experts in this field. If it turns out that you do indeed have nail fungus, the doctor will explain how the treatment works. 

If you decide to proceed with the treatment during the same visit, you will be treated using the PinPointe laser. This is the most effective way to treat nail fungus. Laser treatment is the safest way to kill nail fungus, and the PinPointe laser, which is FDA-approved, has the highest cure rate of all lasers available. Furthermore, the PinPointe laser typically only takes one treatment to cure your nail fungus. The doctor goes over each of your nails with the laser, and the laser kills the nail fungus using heat damage, which is virtually painless to you. Since there is no radiation involved, there are no side effects, and no recovery period either.

What to do after the laser treatment

Once the treatment is completed, the doctor will explain what steps to take to ensure that you do not get reinfected with nail fungus. This may involve steps of basic hygiene, as well as some antifungal products that they may recommend. It is important to follow these steps to ensure the best results from your treatment. Once the doctor has given their recommendation and all your questions have been answered, you will put on a clean pair of socks – different from the ones you wore into your appointment – and you will be on your way with no downtime.
