ND YAG Nail Fungus
Onychomycosis (nail fungus) can affect finger or toenails. It becomes more common with age and certain other groups have a higher risk of developing the condition. Athletes, runners and active gym attenders who sweat more or use communal showers tend to develop it. It is also more common in patients who suffer with diabetes, athlete’s foot or who have circulation problems.

Who Can Be Treated For Toe Nail Fungus?
All skin and nail types can be treated.
How Does The Toe Nail Fungus Treatment Work?
A series of flashes of laser light is aimed across the whole nail, including the nail folds. This heats up and destroys the fungus that is present.
How Long Does The Toe Nail Fungus Treatment Take?
As fungus can spread from one nail to another, normally all ten nails are treated. For this reason, the whole ten nails normally take 10 minutes to complete.
How Many Sessions Do I Need For Toe Nail Fungus Removal?
Typically, a course of 3-5 treatment sessions is necessary. We recommend a series of 4 sessions every 4 weeks.
Do I Need To Take Special Precautions Before And After The Toe Nail Fungus Treatment?
Like any other treatment of nail fungus, laser is a treatment, not a cure. It treats the existing problem, but does not provide immunity against infection in the future
Please make sure you remove any nail polish or gels before your session
