What Is Laser Fungal Nail Treatment?
Fungal nail infection, known clinically as onychomycosis, sits underneath and within the nail plate. That is why creams and lacquers so often fail: they cannot reach the infection through the nail. Laser treatment works by passing energy through the plate to the nail bed beneath.
The laser heats the tissue enough to damage the fungal cells while leaving the nail and surrounding skin intact. Treatment is quick, taking around fifteen minutes for a single nail, and you can put shoes and socks straight back on afterwards.
It is important to understand what you will see. The laser addresses the infection, but the damaged nail itself has to grow out before the improvement is visible, which takes six to twelve months for a toenail. Anyone promising a fast cosmetic fix is not being straight with you.

Benefits of Laser Fungal Nail Treatment
A targeted option for an infection that topical products struggle to reach, with no medication involved.
Reaches the infection directly
Laser energy passes through the nail plate to the nail bed, where creams and lacquers cannot penetrate.
No oral medication
Useful where antifungal tablets are unsuitable because of liver concerns or interactions with other medication.
Pay only for affected nails
Priced by the number of nails treated, so a single affected toe costs a fraction of a full treatment.
Straight back into shoes
No dressings and nothing to protect afterwards, so you can walk out and carry on with your day.
Areas We Can Treat
Pricing is banded by how many nails need treatment. Your practitioner will confirm the count at assessment.
Single Toenail
The most common presentation, usually the big toe, treated in a fifteen minute appointment.
Up to Three Toenails
Where infection has spread to neighbouring nails on the same foot.
Up to Five Toenails
A full foot, treated in one 45 minute appointment.
Fingernails
Less common but more visible, and typically growing clear faster than toenails.
Both Feet
Treated across appointments where infection is widespread on both sides.
Surrounding Skin
Athlete's foot in the surrounding skin is assessed too, since leaving it untreated invites reinfection.
Who Is This Treatment Suitable For?
Your practitioner will confirm the discolouration is fungal, because nail damage from trauma or psoriasis looks similar and will not respond.
Generally Suitable For
Confirmed fungal infection of the nail
Cases where creams and lacquers have failed
Those unable to take oral antifungal medication
Anyone willing to wait for the nail to grow clear
Not Suitable For
Nail damage from trauma rather than infection
Nail changes caused by psoriasis
Poorly controlled diabetes without medical clearance
Pregnancy or breastfeeding

“I have had a few treatments now with Catlin and I have to say she is absolutely amazing!! She made me feel very welcome and took the time to explain in detail how each treatment worked. She is very professional, but down to earth at the same!
The clinic is beautiful, extremely well equipped and leaves you feeling like you’ve been well and truly pampered.”

I will definitely return again ❤️”

What to Expect
1
Nail Assessment
Your practitioner examines the nails, confirms the appearance is consistent with fungal infection and counts how many need treating.
2
Preparation
Nail polish must be removed beforehand and the nail is filed back where it has thickened, so laser energy can reach the nail bed.
3
The Laser Treatment
The laser is passed across each affected nail in a grid. You will feel a warm, pulsing sensation that builds and eases, and treatment takes minutes per nail.
4
Repeat Sessions and Growth
Most people need three to four sessions four weeks apart. The nail then grows clear from the base over six to twelve months.
Safety, Side Effects and Aftercare
Clinical Safety
Treatment is carried out by trained laser technicians using medical-grade equipment. We screen for diabetes and circulatory conditions, because foot treatment in those patients needs medical oversight rather than a beauty setting.
Potential Side Effects
Laser nail treatment is well tolerated. Where effects occur they are brief:
Warmth or a hot pinprick during each pass
Mild redness of the skin around the nail
Occasional temporary tenderness of the nail bed
Essential Aftercare
Keep feet clean and thoroughly dry between toes
Treat footwear with antifungal spray to stop reinfection
Change socks daily and avoid sharing towels
Leave nail polish off until the course is complete
