Fungal Nail Treatment Churchlands

Say Goodbye to Fungal Issues with Our Nail Treatment

Fungal nail treatment is a common reason people visit a podiatrist, but it may not feel like it if it’s affecting you. If you feel alone in having a fungal nail infection, rest assured you don’t need to feel that way anymore. Fungal nail infections— also known as onychomycosis— affect up to 10% of people in Perth, making them much more common than many people realise. The presence of thick, discoloured, or distorted nails might suggest a fungal nail infection. This type of infection could make your nails brittle, crumbly, or ragged, produce an odour, and cause separation from the nail bed. These issues may dent your confidence, curtail your footwear selection, and lower your self-esteem. If this description aligns with your situation, it’s likely that a fungal nail treatment will help restore your confidence.

Give Your Feet the Care They Deserve with Churchlands’s Fungal Nail Treatment

When a fungus encounters a nail, often a toenail but it could also be a fingernail, a fungal nail infection can occur. This typically happens in humid and warm public environments like gyms, swimming pools, and locker rooms. Other factors such as nail injury, prolonged wear of closed shoes, excessive foot perspiration, or certain health conditions like diabetes can also lead to a fungal nail infection. Remember, everyone is susceptible to fungal nail infections, hence prevention is crucial! If you do develop an infection, there are many forms of fungal nail treatment available to help. These are all aimed towards reducing the severity and longevity of your symptoms, helping the nail to grow as healthily as possible. If you don’t treat a fungal nail infection, the nail could become deformed or destroyed, or if you have a weakened immune system, it may also lead to a bacterial skin infection. It’s important to address any nail problems as soon as possible to reduce your risk of complications.

All About Lunula Laser

Lunula laser treatment is a low-level laser treatment that most patients find painless and even comfortable. All you need to do is sit back and relax while the lasers get to work! Two lasers rotate over the nail, and together they weaken the structure of the fungal spores that caused the infection. As well as not being able to feel the lasers while they work, Lunula laser offers additional benefits such as:

• Not interfering or interacting with any systemic medicine
• No chance of liver toxicity
• No chance of developing microbial resistance
• Doesn’t produce any heat
• Doesn’t produce any laser fumes
• Drug-free treatment
• Chemical-free treatment

At its core, Lunula laser leverages low-level laser light to augment your body’s natural defenses, urging them to tackle the microbes responsible for toenail fungus.
