Fungal Nail Treatment Yokine
Say Goodbye to Fungal Issues with Our Nail Treatment
Fungal nail ailments are a frequent cause for podiatry visits. Still, it may not seem that way when it’s impacting you personally. If you’re feeling solitary in dealing with a fungal nail condition, know there’s no reason for such sentiments. Onychomycosis— better known as fungal nail infections— are surprisingly commonplace, impacting nearly 10% of individuals in Perth. Thickened, discoloured, or irregularly shaped nails may indicate a fungal nail infection. This infection can also make the nail brittle, fragmented, or jagged, with potential odour and detachment from the nail bed. Such symptoms could hamper your confidence, limit your choices in footwear, and overall affect your self-esteem. If this echoes your current condition, a fungal nail treatment might be the key to regaining your confidence.
Refresh Your Feet with Fungal Nail Therapy in Yokine
Fungi coming into contact with a nail, particularly toenails but also possibly fingernails, can lead to fungal nail infections. Commonly, this transpires in damp and warm public areas such as gyms, swimming pools, and changing rooms. Yet, factors like sustaining a nail injury, wearing tight shoes for a prolonged duration, having sweaty feet, or suffering from conditions like diabetes could also pave the way for a fungal nail infection. Given that anyone can contract a fungal nail infection, prevention is indeed the best strategy! Should you contract an infection, numerous fungal nail treatments exist to assist you. These strategies are all designed to minimise your symptoms’ intensity and duration, aiding your nail’s healthy growth. Neglecting a fungal nail infection could result in the deformation or destruction of the nail, or in cases of a compromised immune system, a bacterial skin infection could develop. Prompt attention to any nail issues is crucial to mitigate potential complications.
Discovering the 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
Essentially, Lunula laser utilises low-level laser light to strengthen your body’s natural defence system, facilitating it to battle the microbes instigating toenail fungus.
The Lunula Laser Process
At Doubleview Podiatry, our often employed weapon against fungal nail infections is the Lunula Laser. This technique is typically more bearable than several alternatives out there, establishing it as a preferred choice among our clients. The procedure goes as follows:
1. Testing For Fungus
Not all discoloured or deformed nails can be attributed to fungal infection, so we ensure we’re targeting the right ailment through thorough examination.
2. Forming A Treatment Plan
We then work with you to form a treatment plan to address your fungal nail infection. The Lunula laser is suitable for most people, but of course we would like your input on your own treatment.
3. Laser Treatment
The actual laser treatment is rather quick, with about 12 minutes needed per foot. We’ll guide you in placing your foot within the apparatus, and then it’s merely a waiting game while the lasers do their job!
4. Review And Assess
The initial course of Lunula laser treatment involves four sessions, one week apart. We’ll advise you of how long your overall treatment is expected to take, and will review and assess your nail as we go.
Your Fungal Nail Treatment Questions Answered
- How long does it take for Vicks VapoRub to cure toenail fungus?
If you choose to use Vicks VapoRub in an effort to combat your toenail fungus, this method may take about six months or longer and in some cases, may not provide any benefit at all.
- How do I get rid of nail fungus ASAP?
Lunula laser is known to be one of the quickest ways to get rid of nail fungus, as is Canesten® Fungal Nail Treatment Set. Both options may take as little as four weeks to eliminate nail fungus.
- What is the fastest way to cure toenail fungus?
Each person’s fungal nail infection is different, so there’s not one overall fastest option. Some people may find that Lunula laser works quickest for them, whereas others may find a topical treatment such as Canesten® the fastest treatment option.
- What is the most effective treatment for toenail fungus?
Lunula laser is often heralded as the most effective treatment for toenail fungus. Other options have been shown to produce serious side effects or not even work at all, and early fungal nail laser systems often generated uncomfortable heat. Thanks to advances in technology and modern medicine, Lunula laser is considered to be the most effective option today.
