About Laser Nail Fungus Treatment
Do your fingernails or toenails take on a calloused texture or a blanched or jaundiced blotching pattern? Do they feel itchy or like they're burning under the nail? This could be an indicator of a nail fungal infection. Fungal infections don't often respond well to over-the-counter solutions, so care from a specialist is needed in the majority of cases to cure the disease. Our expert practitioners at A&A Med Spa are highly qualified to identify and treat nail fungus, eliminating pain, itchiness, and discoloration. We perform this common service with the industry-leading Harmony XL PRO laser device. When you're experiencing symptoms of a nail fungal illness, we encourage you to seek relief!

Frequently Asked Questions
What will happen if nail fungus is not properly treated?
The uninterrupted growth of fungal infection will likely interfere with tasks such as walking, exercising, and even mundane activities, including picking things up and typing. Additionally, the nails will increase in fragility as time goes on. For these reasons, it is important to treat the nails at the earliest sign of infection.
How many sessions are recommended for laser nail fungus treatment?
Even though observable results may be noticed after just one procedure, most clients will require 3 – 4 treatments in order to verify that the fungus has been completely eradicated. These additional treatments are typically planned 5 – 6 weeks apart in order to ensure the most effective results and the safety of uninfected skin tissue.
What causes fungus to grow under the nails?
Fungal organisms, or fungi, are the culprit when it comes to nail fungal infections. Common in many environments, fungi such as yeast and mold thrive in moist places. When sweat and oil collect under the fingernails and toenails, fungal spores can sometimes find a home there. Then, they begin to rapidly multiply and spread across the skin, requiring treatment.
Does my insurance work for nail fungus treatment?
Since this procedure is deemed an aesthetic treatment, it will probably not be under your insurance. Still, laser nail fungus treatment is extremely effective at eradicating obstinate fungus.
