Video Introduction of the PinPointe Laser Treatment Process

Fungal Toenails are very common

An estimated 12%  of  Americans experience fungal nail infection, called onychomycosis.  Onychomycosis is a fungal infection of the nail. Both toenails or fingernails may be affected by the fungal infection however, onychomycosis is more prevalent in toenails. Symptoms include discoloration of the toenail with a yellow, greenish appearance or yellow/white streaks, thickening of the nail and separation or loosening of the nail from the nail bed.

 

Laser Treatment Process

Laser treatment for nail fungus offers the most viable solution to regaining healthy nails. The patented PinPointe FootLaser is a specially designed laser beam that goes through the toenail and safely kills the organisms embedded in the nail bed that cause Onychomycosis, more commonly known as toenail fungus. The laser uses a Nd:YAG crystal. PinPointe’s proprietary combination of wavelength, pulse structure and spot size, targets the fungus. The unique laser pulse ends before damaging surrounding tissue or causing pain to the patient.

PinPointe Footlaser is the only device that was successfully used in over 250 patients in clinical trials. Clinical studies have shown that the PinPointe Laser significantly reduces toenail fungal infection. These studies showed that there were no adverse reactions, injuries  or other known side effects. Oral medications are an alternative way of treating toenail fungus but oral medications come with minor side effects such as headache, stomach upset, diarrhea, rash, itch, and loss of taste.

Typically, a significant overall improvement will be seen after 3 months. The average toenail replaces itself every 6-9 months.  A continuous improvement will be gradual as the nail continue to grow out.

To achieve optimal results, we recommend a series of 3 – 4 treatment sessions, spaced 5 – 6 weeks apart. This is essential to eradicate all fungi spores that may bloom after your initial treatment. However, significant improvement is usually seen after one treatment.

Because this treatment is considered aesthetic, health insurance plans do not cover the procedure.  We accept major credit cards and personal checks.  We also offer payment plans through Care Credit.
