Laser Nail Fungus Treatment in Newport Beach, CA
Laser Nail Fungus Treatment
Nail fungus infections are a common yet stubborn condition that can cause thick, yellow, brittle
nails that are difficult to trim and manage. While fungal infections can affect both fingernails and
toenails, toenails are more susceptible due to their exposure to dark, damp environments where
fungus thrives. At New Look Skin Center in Newport Beach, we offer advanced laser nail fungus
treatments to effectively eliminate fungal infections without toxic medications or invasive
procedures.
Many over-the-counter antifungal creams and ointments only provide temporary relief, as they
fail to penetrate deeply into the nail bed where the fungus resides. Prescription medications,
while more effective, may come with serious side effects, including liver toxicity. Our
state-of-the-art laser treatment targets the fungus at its source, killing it without harming the
surrounding tissue and promoting healthier, clearer nails over time.
How Laser Nail Fungus Treatment Works
Laser therapy is a non-invasive and drug-free solution that uses focused laser energy to
penetrate the nail bed, where it heats and destroys the fungal infection. The laser safely targets
the affected area without damaging the nail or surrounding skin, allowing the body to grow new,
healthy nails naturally.
Unlike topical treatments, which only work on the nail’s surface, laser treatment reaches deep
into the nail bed, eliminating the fungus more effectively. There is no downtime, no pain, and no
risk of systemic side effects, making it a superior alternative to oral medications.

FAQ
How does laser treatment eliminate nail fungus?
Laser therapy delivers targeted heat energy to penetrate the nail bed, effectively killing the
fungal infection at its source. The high-intensity laser breaks down the fungal cells without
damaging the surrounding nail or skin. Over time, as the nail grows out, healthy, clear nails
replace the infected ones.
Is laser nail fungus treatment painful?
Laser treatment is generally painless, with most patients experiencing only a mild warming
sensation during the procedure. There are no needles, no incisions, and no need for
anesthesia. After the session, patients can resume their daily activities immediately.
How many laser sessions are needed to completely remove nail fungus?
The number of sessions varies based on the severity of the infection, but most patients need 4
to 6 treatments for the best results. Sessions are typically spaced a few weeks apart to allow the
nail to grow and clear naturally. A consultation can help determine a personalized treatment
plan.
When will I see results after laser nail fungus treatment?
Since nails grow slowly, visible improvement takes time as the infected nail gradually grows out
and is replaced by a clear, healthy nail. Most patients begin to notice results within a few
months, with full regrowth occurring over 6 to 12 months, depending on nail growth rate.
Can laser treatment prevent nail fungus from coming back?
Laser treatment eliminates the active fungal infection, but proper nail care is essential to prevent
reinfection. Wearing breathable shoes, keeping feet dry, and regularly sanitizing nail tools can
help maintain results. Using antifungal sprays or powders in shoes may also help reduce the
risk of recurrence.
Is laser treatment safe for all skin types and ages?
Laser nail fungus treatment is safe for all skin types and age groups, as it does not damage
surrounding tissue. Unlike oral antifungal medications, it has no systemic side effects, making it
a great option for individuals who cannot take prescription treatments. A consultation will help
ensure laser treatment is the right choice for your needs.
