Are you struggling with ugly, fungal toenails? Our office recently upgraded our treatment approach with an innovative technology called the Lunula Laser System. Here's what you need to know about this exciting advancement in fungal toenail treatment.

What is the Lunula Laser System for Treating Fungal Toenails?

Lunula laser for treating fungal toenailsThe Lunula laser represents a significant evolution in treating fungal toenails. Lunula uses low-level laser light to stimulate your body’s cellular and immune response, eradicating the fungal infection at the source--your nail bed. 

 Unlike other laser treatments for fungal toenails, Lunula uses two lasers to destroy your fungus.

  • The first laser creates a chemical reaction to target and kill the fungus.
  • The second laser stimulates your body’s immune response by increasing circulation to the nailbed.

The advantages of the Lunula laser over previous laser systems are:

  • Pain-Free: Because the Lunula laser does not emit heat, you won't experience any discomfort during the treatment.
  • Quick Sessions: Each treatment session only takes 30 minutes, making it quick and easy.
  • Effective: The Lunula Laser has shown remarkable success in treating toenail fungus. The laser has been found to achieve success for 67-70% of patients in 6 months, showing up to three millimeters of clear nail growth. Its effectiveness climbs to 80-90% within a year.
