My results with Cutera Laser for Toenail Fungus 2013
Results of my Cutera patients treated for nail fungus.
I have been completing treatment for toenail fungus with a laser since the technology was first available on the market…
How it Started: Pin Pointe Laser (a false start)
When the technology first came out I was not very impressed with the results of the laser procedure. Only about half of my patients saw results after a treatment and the cost was high, $1200 per treatment! This was something I discussed with each patient prior to the service being completed and even with the 50% success rate; several people were willing to try the procedure.
The newest Cutera Laser: Lower price, More favorable outcome!
When the Cutera Genesis laser came out, the laser nail fungus treatment was revolutionized. The Cutera is 80 watts strong compared to the original PinPointe’s 4 watts. This means the results are better and the treatment much faster. I also discovered that utilizing topical treatments with laser procedures is the best and most effective means of treating nail fungus. It has also come to my attention that most people need three treatments to get results they are happy with. The new laser, combination treatment, and increase from one treatment to three has increased success rates to about 70%, which is just below antifungal medicines such as Lamisil. However, lasers do not come with the same side effects. In fact, lasers are much safer and easier. Today I can do a series of three treatments for just $900.
We use the most advanced Laser for nail fungus:
The Cutera Genesis Laser is 80 Watts. This is 20 times more powerful than the first generation of FDA approved lasers for nail fungus. The Cutera Genesis 1064nm laser is a safe and effective option for treatment of nail fungus. The heat generated by the laser penetrates deep inside the nail where the fungus resides. It kills the fungus that causes nail disease (Dermatophytes). It is relatively painless. Most patients report feeling some heat and occasional discomfort. The heat does not damage the surrounding skin. The laser procedure is done in our office and takes 20-40 minutes depending on how many nails are effected. No anesthesia or pain killers are necessary and patients may return to normal activity and work immediately after the procedure with zero down-time. |
