Toenail Fungus Laser Treatment

Since its clearance by Health Canada in February 2011, Dr. Troy has been providing toenail fungus laser treatments to his patients in Vancouver, Delta, Surrey, White Rock and Delta, BC. Patients have found that the treatment is painless and fast, and Dr. Troy, being Canada’s first Certified Provider of Pin Pointe Foot Laser technology, has been able to treat toenail fungus in most of his patients’ cases with only one treatment.

A typical appointment lasts between 30-40 minutes, during which Dr. Troy focuses a laser through the nail plate that vaporizes the toenail fungus. Clearing at the base of each infected toenail can be seen in as little as 2-4 months, with complete growth of clear nails occurring between 12-18 months.

A fast and easy toenail fungus laser treatment can be far more effective than traditional methods, such as side-effect-prone oral medications or time-consuming topical creams. In fact, having only one toenail fungus laser treatment was shown to be effective in stopping fungus growth in up to 90% of all treated cases. Laser treatment has already been used in over 70,000 cases worldwide, and now Dr. Troy brings it to the Vancouver area.

The most important things patients can do after they receive a toenail fungus laser treatment is prevent reinfecting their toenails by applying a daily antifungal cream, avoiding moist public places that may harbor fungus and avoiding any nail instruments used by more than one person.

By following these simple instructions, given by Dr. Troy after treatment, a patient can experience complete freedom from toenail fungus.
