Laser Treatment for Fungal Nails

Treating fungal nails with laser therapy is an increasingly popular method for effectively combating nail infections. You can book this treatment at one of our three institutes in Sint-Michiels, Sint-Andries, or Knokke.

Here's how the treatment typically works:

Treatment Sessions:
Multiple sessions are usually required for effective treatment. During each session, a specific wavelength of laser light is directed at the affected nails. The laser energy penetrates the nail plate and targets the fungus without damaging the surrounding skin.

How It Works:
The heat generated by the laser destroys the fungus while leaving the surrounding tissue unharmed. This process helps eliminate the infection and stimulates the growth of healthy nails.

Duration and Number of Sessions:
The length and number of sessions may vary depending on the severity of the infection and how your nails respond to the treatment.

Aftercare and Results:
No specific recovery time is typically needed after each session. You can resume your daily activities right away. Over time, you should begin to see healthy nails growing in to replace the infected ones.
