FAQ about Toe Nail Fungus

• IS THE TREATMENT PAINFULL?

  Most people feel no pain. Some people feel a warming sensation and very few feel a pinprick.

• IS THERE A RECOVERY PERIOD?

  No; just walk in and walk out.

• HOW LONG DOES THE PROCEDURE TAKE?

  The FootLaser procedure takes about 30 minutes.

• WILL THE FUNGUS COME BACK?

  The infection improves following one treatment and typically the provider will recommend care techniques to reduce recurrence of the infection. There is a chance of reinfection because the fungus is present everywhere in the environment.
