Podiatric laser treatment is a modern, non-invasive solution for eliminating toenail fungus. At EC Beauty Clinic in Carcavelos - Lisbon, we offer this advanced treatment to restore your feet to full health, comfort and beauty.

What is podiatric laser treatment for fungal infections?

Podiatric laser treatment uses concentrated beams of light that target the infection directly, promoting nail regeneration and preventing the problem from spreading. This safe, painless, highly effective treatment is suitable for both men and women suffering from onychomycosis, or nail fungus.

Each session aims to eliminate the fungus, encourage healthy nail growth, and prevent new infections. Several sessions are usually necessary to achieve lasting results.

Benefits of podiatric laser treatment

  • Eliminates fungus without the need for aggressive oral or topical medication.
  • Painless and safe with no recovery time.
  • Improves the appearance and texture of nails.
  • Stimulates healthy nail growth.
  • Reduces the risk of infection recurring.
  • Fast and effective treatment with visible results in a few weeks.

How does the treatment work?

  1. Initial assessment: analysis of the condition of the nails and identification of the type of fungus present.
  2. Laser application: beams of light are directed at the affected nail, heating and destroying the fungus precisely and controllably.
  3. Post-treatment: recommendations on hygiene, prevention and follow-up care.

The length of treatment varies depending on the severity of the infection and how each patient responds. Normally, four to six sessions are recommended.

Post-treatment care

Some precautions you should take include keeping your feet clean and dry, wearing ventilated footwear and cotton socks, avoiding walking barefoot in public places, disinfecting footwear and pedicure tools, and following recommendations to prevent reinfection.
