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. Unlike most providers, we offer three treatments for one low price. We’ve found a minimum of three are necessary. We also offer low price for each additional necessary treatment after the first three. Patients will not see results right away. It will take at least six months for the new nail to grow in after the procedure. The laser does not change the existing nail and requires new nail to grow in to replace the diseased nail. We see clearing as the new nail grows in from the back to the front of the toe. We also use a specialized nail grinder to reduce the thickens of the nails and remove as much fungus as possible mechanically prior to performing the laser. This grinder sprays a water and alcohol combination to cool the nail and minimize discomfort while grinding. |
