Have you been dealing with unattractive toenail fungus (Onchyomycosis)? The anti-fungal creams just aren’t cutting it and the only way to cover it up is with socks and shoes or with nail polish. Don’t be embarrassed by your toenails any longer! At Texas Foot Works, we have the solution right here in our office.

We offer you the technology of laser treatments, which can safely and painlessly treat your toenail fungus! Our laser treatments use specific wavelengths of light to target fungus that survive under the toenails, which are unreachable with creams and other medication. And unlike the many possible side effects that come with oral anti-fungal medications like, abdominal pain, diarrhea, rash, and liver damage or heart failure, there are no side effects for laser therapy.

What is Laser Treatment like?

• You’ll come to our office for 3 or more treatments, depending on the severity of your fungal infection.
• Each treatment will take under 10 minutes.
• There is little or no discomfort, and there is no anesthesia involved.
• There is no ointments or solutions used on the affected area, only the focused laser beams, which you won’t feel.
• There is no recovery period, so you can walk in, get treated, and walk out. You can even apply toenail polish in between treatments (but it needs to come off for treatment).
• It does not damage the toenail or surrounding skin or tissues.

The treatments will kill the fungi that are growing under the toenail. It will prevent new toenail growth from having the unattractiveness of fungal toenails and revitalized growth will begin again. While the treatment does not guarantee that the fungus will not come back, you can take measures like practicing daily preventative hygiene habits. Our podiatrist may also suggest preventative maintenance treatment.
