You no longer need to feel embarrassed to wear open-toe shoes and sandals – or just go barefoot – because of toenail fungus or discoloration.
Dr. Alexander is the area’s leader in restoring nails back to health, providing a natural and luminous appearance.
Class IV laser therapy is one of the most safe and effective ways to treat toenail fungus (onychomycosis)!
Laser Therapy has a vast amount of benefits including:
- Laser therapy penetrates the nail bed and kills the fungus living underneath the nail – without pain and without any harmful side effects.
- When the colony of fungus under the nail is “attacked” by the laser, the elements that make it grow and thrive are destroyed. This allows your nail bed to begin growing new, healthy nail. Nails that won’t give you feelings of discomfort or embarrassment!
- Laser therapy is a quick and easy treatment allowing patients to relax during the procedure.
