Nail fungus treatment with the Neo Elite laser is painless, quick, and highly effective. With only 1 or 2 treatments, most patients can be freed of their nail fungus infection.
Compared to oral drugs or topical creams, laser therapies for nail fungus have been shown to be much safer and more effective. To successfully treat nail fungus using laser technology, the laser energy must be able to penetrate deeply into the nail bed to destroy all fungal populations. The Aerolase Neo Elite is capable of this while still being gentle to the surrounding skin tissue. Right after treatment, patients can resume their daily activities as normal.
2 to 4 treatments spread out in 1 to 2-week intervals will result in the visible growth of clear and healthy new nail. However, if the nail has a distal previously-infected part that does not completely adhere to the nail bed, fungi can still infiltrate the nail environment and cause re-infection.
Results are not immediate and treatment requires patience, as it takes anywhere from 3 to 12 months for the new, non-infected nail to fully grow. Follow-up treatments may be required until the nail fully heals.
