The treatment uses targeted Nd:Yag laser energy, which safely penetrates the nail plate to reach the underlying infection. The laser creates conditions that are unfavourable for fungal growth without damaging the surrounding skin or tissue. This non-invasive approach helps to clear the way for a healthier nail structure to develop as your natural nail grows out.

It is important to remember that the laser does not instantly clear the nail. Instead, it supports the growth of a new, healthier nail from the base. Because toenails grow slowly, it can take several months for the clearer nail to become visible. Your results will develop progressively as the old, affected nail is trimmed away and replaced by healthy growth.

The number of treatments depends on the severity of the infection and how your nails respond to the laser. While some may see progress early on, a course of treatments is usually recommended to achieve the best possible outcome. During your initial assessment, we will discuss a treatment plan that provides the consistent support needed to restore the appearance of your nails.

Not at all. The procedure is non-invasive and generally well-tolerated, with most clients describing a warming sensation during the session. You can put your shoes and socks back on and return to your daily activities immediately after your appointment. There is no recovery period, making it a very convenient option for those with busy schedules.

Consistency is key to a successful outcome. Alongside your clinic sessions, maintaining excellent foot hygiene and following our professional aftercare guidance is essential. This includes simple steps like wearing fresh socks, keeping your feet dry, and using any recommended topical products. These habits help to protect the new nail growth and prevent the infection from returning.
