Our LMC Chiropodists have treatment options available to manage your toenail infection. Finding the best treatment depends on factors like age, activity level, health history or how severe your symptoms are. You may need routine nail care maintenance once the initial concern is treated.
LED light therapy toenail treatment is designed for patients with persistent or difficult-to-treat fungal nail infections that have not responded to over-the-counter products.
Our LED light therapy treatment uses a dual-wavelength photodynamic system combined with a specialized photosensitizing serum to eliminate fungal infections directly at the source. Here’s the science behind this innovative approach:
Your clinician gently files down the infected nail to remove debris and optimize serum penetration.
Serum is applied to the affected nails. This serum binds specifically to fungal cells, staining them and making them vulnerable to light-activated destruction.
A therapy light is positioned over your toenails. The light activates the serum, triggering a photodynamic reaction that destroys fungal cells while leaving healthy tissue unharmed.
Treatments are performed every two weeks, with most patients requiring 8 - 10 sessions to achieve significant nail clearance.
This treatment approach focuses on improving nail clarity and overall nail health through structured in-clinic care, regular follow-up, and education on proper nail and foot hygiene.
Your chiropodist will assess your nails and overall foot health and recommend the most appropriate treatment plan based on your individual needs.
