Get Rid of Fungal Toenails with Remy + PinPointe Laser Treatment!
You’ve tried everything: messy topical creams, oral medications with the potential for side effects, and even a few TikTok “lifehacks” involving lemon juice or vinegar. Every time, the nail fungus remains or returns, leaving your toenails thickened and yellowed while you suffer through another summer of close-toed shoes…
Sound familiar?
You’re not alone: toenail fungus (onychomycosis) affects people of all ages, and many of them run into the exact same problems. The blog below describes how Feet First Foot Care combines the PinPointe™ FootLaser™ and Remy Laser to deliver a safe, effective, and modern approach. Read on to learn how you can get results that last.
Oral Meds, Topical Creams, and Common Pain Points
While prescription pills can be effective against nail fungus for some, they aren’t the right choice for everyone.
- A significant concern is the potential for systemic side effects. These medications circulate throughout your body, potentially impacting your liver or interacting with other medications you might be taking. This often necessitates regular blood tests to monitor for complications, adding inconvenience and cost.
Topical treatments come with their own problems.
- Requiring constant application for months at a time, they feature lower success rates, even when used diligently. In part, this is because they struggle to penetrate the nail plate. Thus, they won’t reach the fungus where it lives or treat it effectively.
Laser Focus: PinPointe & Remy Therapy
Fortunately, advanced laser technology provides a powerful way to target nail fungus directly. Our practice combines leading systems like the PinPointe™ FootLaser™ and the Remy Laser to achieve results many patients didn’t think possible.
These sophisticated lasers work on a simple principle:
- Targeted Energy: The laser emits specific wavelengths of focused light energy.
- Safe Nail Penetration: This light passes harmlessly through your toenail.
- Fungus Absorption: The pigment within the fungal organisms living underneath the nail absorbs this specific light energy, which converts to heat.
- Heat Destruction: This heat effectively destroys the fungus responsible for the infection without damaging the surrounding healthy nail bed or skin.
The Laser Advantage: Clear Nails Without the Worry
Both PinPointe and Remy lasers are clinically proven technologies shown to significantly improve nail clarity for a majority of patients. They boast benefits like:
- Higher Safety Profiles: This is a key advantage. Because the laser energy works locally only on the affected nail area, there are no systemic side effects.
- Pain Free Results: Most patients report feeling only a mild warming sensation during the treatment. Anesthesia is not needed.
- Speed & Convenience: Treatment sessions are typically fast, often taking less than 30 minutes to treat all affected toes.
- Zero Downtime: You can literally walk in for your appointment, receive the laser treatment, and walk right out to resume your normal daily activities immediately.
Don’t set yourself up for disappointment, and don’t wait anymore. With PinPointe and Remy on your side, you can get back to stepping out with confidence again!
