Clear Fungal Nails with PinPointe FootLaser

Are you hiding your feet because of embarrassing fungal nails? You’re not alone. Millions suffer from onychomycosis, a common fungal infection that can cause thickening, discoloration, and even pain. If you’ve tried over-the-counter treatments with little success, it’s time to consider a more powerful solution: the PinPointe FootLaser. At Kentlands Foot & Ankle Center, we’re proud to offer this advanced technology to help you achieve clear, healthy nails.

Why Choose PinPointe FootLaser?

The PinPointe FootLaser is an FDA-cleared device specifically designed for the treatment of toenail fungus. It offers several advantages over traditional methods:

• Clinically Proven Effectiveness: The PinPointe FootLaser has demonstrated significant success rates in clinical studies. It is a fast and effective treatment option that has been used for many years.
• Targets the Fungus Directly: Unlike topical treatments that struggle to penetrate the nail plate, the PinPointe FootLaser delivers laser energy directly to the source of the infection, beneath the nail.
• Safe and Painless: The procedure is generally painless, requiring no anesthesia and causing no damage to the surrounding tissue. Patients typically feel a warm sensation during the treatment. The laser is safe to use and has no known side effects.
• No Downtime: You can return to your normal activities immediately after the procedure.
• Avoids Systemic Side Effects: Unlike oral antifungal medications, the PinPointe FootLaser has no risk of liver toxicity or other systemic side effects.

How the PinPointe FootLaser Works

The PinPointe FootLaser emits a specially designed laser beam that passes through the toenail and targets the underlying fungal organisms. The laser energy heats and destroys the fungus without harming the surrounding healthy tissue. The procedure is quick, typically taking about 30 minutes to treat both feet. Most patients only require one treatment to achieve their desired result.
