Toenail fungus (onychomycosis) is surprisingly common and often starts when microscopic fungi invade tiny cracks under the nail. Over time, it can cause nails to become thick, brittle, and discolored. This makes it especially hard to wear sandals comfortably or feel confident barefoot. Traditional treatments like creams, nail polishes, or pills can take months and sometimes miss hard-to-reach fungus under the nail. At our clinic, we offer a cutting-edge alternative: the PinPointe™ FootLaser®. This industry-leading device harnesses the power of concentrated light energy to gently penetrate the nail to kill fungus at its source. It’s safe, painless, and efficient. This laser nail therapy is also performed by trained medical doctors who care about your comfort and results.
1. Free Consultation with a Medical Doctor
Before any treatment, one of our medical doctors will examine your feet and discuss your nail fungus history and symptoms. We offer this initial consultation at no charge, allowing you to ask questions and understand your options without pressure. This exam helps confirm your diagnosis and lets us explain exactly how laser nail therapy works so you can make an informed decision about your care.
2. Preparing Your Nails
On the day of treatment, we ask you to remove any nail polish or artificial nails before your visit, or we can help remove them in the office if needed. We will then clean and trim your nails, ensuring the laser can reach the fungus under the nail for the best results. Most patients simply relax in a chair during this brief preparation.
3. Laser Treatment Session
During the session, your provider will use the PinPointe FootLaser to treat each infected toenail. The laser emits a gentle light that passes through the nail plate and delivers heat into the nail bed, targeting the fungal cells without harming the surrounding skin or nail tissue. Patients typically describe a warm, tingling sensation, but there is no pain or need for anesthesia. Each nail only takes a few minutes, and the entire visit usually lasts under an hour, allowing you to sit back and relax during treatment.
4. After Treatment and Results
When the session is complete, you can walk out and resume your day immediately. There’s no downtime or recovery period needed. We encourage you to resume your normal activities, including wearing shoes, going to work, or even applying nail polish if you’d like. While the laser starts working immediately by targeting the fungus, visible improvement takes time as new, healthy nail grows in. Most people see noticeable results within 1–3 months, with clear nail growth continuing over 6–12 months as the damaged nail slowly grows out. We will also provide you with easy-to-follow aftercare instructions to help prevent reinfection, and to deter reinfection, we highly recommend the use of our topical preventatives.
