Fungal Nail Laser Treatment in Bridgwater

How does laser treatment for fungal nails work?

Fungal nail infections tend to make nails thick, discoloured, brittle or crumbly, and they are notoriously slow to clear. Laser treatment directs focused light through the nail plate to the area underneath, where the fungus lives, using heat to target it without cutting or damaging the surrounding tissue. The session is non-invasive and there is no downtime, so you can walk straight out and carry on with your day. It is suitable for both fingernails and toenails. Because nails grow slowly, any improvement shows as healthier nail grows through, which can take many months. Best results are usually seen with a series of treatments, depending on how severe the infection is.

How much does fungal nail laser treatment cost?

At Bright Smiles Beauty you begin with the free Patch Test and Consultation, a 30 minute appointment where your therapist looks at the affected nails, asks about your health and explains whether the treatment is right for you. The Fungal Nail Laser Treatment itself is priced from £40 per nail, with a 30 minute session. The final cost depends on how many nails need treating, which your therapist will confirm at your consultation. As a series of sessions is usually recommended, it helps to talk through a plan at the start so you know roughly how many visits to expect and how they will be spaced.

Who is it suitable for and how can I help my results?

The treatment can suit adults with mild to more stubborn fungal nail infections who want a non-invasive option. If you have diabetes, poor circulation, a very painful or spreading infection, or you are unsure what is causing the change in your nail, speak to your GP or a podiatrist first. Results vary and cannot be guaranteed, and reinfection is possible. Between sessions, keep feet clean and completely dry, change socks daily, wear breathable shoes, avoid sharing towels or nail tools and wear flip-flops in communal showers. Your therapist may also suggest keeping the nail short and filed. Following their advice gives the new nail the best chance to grow through clearer.
