Nail Fungus Therapy
Fotona’s ClearSteps™ laser treatment offers an effective option for addressing toenail fungus (onychomycosis) by utilizing the power of Nd:YAG laser light. This laser heats the infected nail and surrounding skin tissue, creating a thermal environment that disrupts the fungi responsible for infection. The treatment is minimally invasive, painless, and typically requires only a few sessions, promoting new, healthy nail growth over time. Benefits of Fotona’s ClearSteps™ method include a high success rate, a low risk of side effects, and no need for oral medications, which can often have side effects.

Learn More About Nail Fungus Laser Therapy
Toenail fungus, also known as onychomycosis, is a common fungal infection that affects the nails. Symptoms include discolored nails (yellow, white, or brown), thickened or brittle nails, and nails that may separate from the nail bed. If you’re experiencing these symptoms, it’s essential to consult with a healthcare professional for an accurate diagnosis.
Toenail fungus is caused by microscopic organisms called fungi, which thrive in warm, moist environments. Common risk factors include exposure to damp areas like public pools or locker rooms, wearing tight-fitting shoes that trap moisture, having a weakened immune system, sustaining nail injuries, and aging, which can make nails more susceptible to infection.
Treatment options for toenail fungus include topical antifungal creams, oral medications, and laser therapy. Topical creams are applied directly to the affected nails, while oral medications are taken by mouth to target the infection from within. Laser therapy, such as ClearSteps, uses gentle laser pulses to eliminate the fungus without damaging surrounding tissue.
Yes, laser therapy for toenail fungus is considered safe and effective. The laser targets the fungus without harming the surrounding skin or nails, and clinical studies have shown high success rates in eliminating toenail fungus. Additionally, laser therapy is non-invasive and does not require anesthesia, making it a comfortable treatment option for many individuals.
The number of laser therapy sessions needed may vary depending on the severity of the infection and individual response to treatment. Typically, a series of 3-4 sessions spaced one week apart is recommended for optimal results. While some patients may see improvement after the first session, it may take several months to achieve complete clearance of the infection as healthy nails grow.
Laser therapy for toenail fungus is associated with minimal side effects and downtime. Some patients may experience temporary discoloration of the nail or slight discomfort during treatment, but these effects are usually mild and resolve quickly. There is no downtime after laser therapy, and patients can resume their normal activities immediately.
