Fungal nail treatment is designed to combat onychomycosis, a common infection that affects the toenails and sometimes fingernails. It typically results in thickened, yellowish, or brittle nails and can be both uncomfortable and unsightly. Treatment options vary depending on the severity of the infection and can include topical antifungal creams, oral medications, and more advanced methods like laser therapy. Laser treatment, in particular, targets the fungal infection beneath the nail without damaging the surrounding tissue, offering a non-invasive and effective alternative for persistent cases.
At Derma Cosmedic, patients receive personalized treatment using advanced laser technology to target fungal infections. Their skilled team works closely with clients to create tailored plans, focusing on both aesthetic and medical results. With affordable, expert care, Derma Cosmedic has become a trusted choice for improving nail health and appearance.

Fungal nail infections are typically caused by dermatophytes, yeasts, or molds that thrive in warm, moist environments. They can occur when nails are exposed to fungi from contaminated surfaces, tight shoes, or poor hygiene.
Symptoms of a fungal nail infection include thickened nails, discolouration (yellow or brown), crumbling edges, and pain. The nail may also become brittle or misshapen.
Treatment options include topical anti-fungal creams, oral medications, and advanced options like laser therapy, which targets the fungus under the nail without damaging surrounding tissue.
Yes, laser treatment is a safe and non-invasive option. It uses focused light to penetrate the nail and destroy the fungal infection without harming surrounding tissues.
The number of treatments varies depending on the severity of the infection, but most people require 1-3 sessions for optimal results. Your healthcare provider will tailor the treatment plan to your needs.
Fungal nail treatments, especially laser therapy, are generally painless. Some patients may experience mild discomfort or a warming sensation during the procedure, but this usually subsides quickly.
Visible improvement can take a few weeks to a few months, depending on the method used and the severity of the infection. New, healthy nails typically grow back in about 6-12 months.
To prevent recurrence, maintain good nail hygiene, keep your feet dry, wear breathable shoes, and avoid walking barefoot in public areas like pools or locker rooms.
Regular treatment and monitoring can also help prevent reinfection.
