Toe Fungus Laser

The word is out. Health Canada has cleared the use of a laser to treat toenail fungus and Dr. Troy is Canada’s first Pin Pointe Foot Laser Certified Provider of this service. His office has been treating patients from all around the Vancouver area, including Delta, Surrey, White Rock and Richmond, BC. Dr. Troy has seen the efficacy of the toe fungus laser, used in over 70,000 cases worldwide, and now he brings it to the citizens of Canada.
Toe nail fungus is a very common condition, present in roughly 10% of the general population. In most cases it causes deformities in the toe nail. However, in extreme cases it can be a true health risk, especially for those with Diabetes or circulatory issues.

Toe nail fungus can be a thing of the past thanks to the toe fungus laser Dr. Troy uses at his office. The pulsed YAG laser is carefully passed over each infected nail during a short 40-minute appointment, and in about two months clearing can be seen at the base of each nail. In a little over a year, new healthy nails are grown out, completely free from fungal infection.

The laser causes no pain and requires no anesthesia. It is a walk-in/walk-out procedure, and patients return to their normal routines right after treatment. At most, patients feel a slight warming sensation or small pin prick in the toe (due to the laser’s energy). It is non-invasive and carries none of the side effects associated with oral medications or topical antifungal agents.

After-care is easily and spelled out by Dr. Troy. The main goal is to avoid reinfection of the toe nails, mostly through avoiding the moist, public places where fungus can thrive (public pools, showers and whirlpools).
