Podiatry Group Melbourne is now offering laser for the treatment of onychomycosis. The ARC 1064-nm laser works by superheating the nailbed, resulting in fungal cell destruction and growth inhibition.
Patients with con rmed onychomycosis through cultures or periodic acid-Schiff (PAS) staining undergo laser treatment of all toenails. A subsequent treatment is performed post 8 weeks. Treatment is well tolerated by patients with little to no discomfort except for the occasional sensation of a ‘pin prick’.
How Can We Help?
Using the laser treatment , our team of skilled and friendly podiatrists at Podiatry Group Melbourne can assess and monitor fungal or discoloured nails and provide preventative care and education to best maintain the health of your feet.
