PinPointe™ FootLaser Will Cure Your Fungal Nails

Stop suffering the pain and embarrassment of unsightly nail fungus. PinPointe FootLaser is the latest innovation in the field of podiatric medicine, providing a safe, effective and painless way to treat persistent fungal infections of the nails. This convenient treatment will make your discolored and disfigured nails become clearer and healthier.

Breakthrough Laser Treatment for Fungal Toenails

The patented PinPointe FootLaser is a non-invasive, FDA-approved laser therapy designed to eliminate the fungus Onychomycosis, which is found on the toenails. This laser works by delivering targeted pulses of light energy that penetrate the toenail and safely destroy the fungus embedded in the nail bed. The surrounding healthy tissue will be unaffected and for most patients, one treatment is enough to cure their fungal toenails. This fungal nail treatment is a much safer option than other traditional methods such as prescription antifungal creams and medications.

The PinPointe Laser is a major leap forward in medical technology to safely treat toenail fungus by providing the safest and most cost-effective treatment available. The laser uses a special Nd:YAG crystal, which allows the laser to be tuned to a frequency that only affects the cells responsible for the nail infection. Clinical studies of the PinPointe FootLaser have shown that the laser also helps reduce the risk of future fungal infections on the treated toenails. This procedure offers many patients successful results within a single treatment and there is no downtime or need for oral medication.

What To Expect From My PinPointe™ FootLaser Treatment?

Your PinPointe FootLaser treatment is a relatively simple procedure that can be completed in a matter of minutes. To cure your toenail, only one treatment is typically required and will be performed in an office setting with no anesthetic being necessary. Once the treatment starts, you may feel a warm sensation. This is from the light energy that safely penetrates your nail and destroys the fungus. Once the procedure is finished, you are free to return to your normal activities with no downtime necessary.

Your laser treatment will only kill the fungus that lives in and under the toenail, while leaving the surrounding skin undamaged. Although the existing nail will not become clear immediately upon treatment, the new nail growth will appear normal, as the fungus will no longer be present. If you want the appearance of natural healthy toenails right away, it is best to include both the PinPointe FootLaser and the KeryFlex™ Nail Restoration procedures in your treatment plan. These procedures work together to eliminate your toenail fungal infections and quickly provide the appearance of healthy toenails. At Foot & Ankle Centers, we offer both of these services to help you achieve your ideal and healthy toenails.
