Toenail fungus (onychomycosis) is a common condition that can cause nails to become thick, discolored, brittle, or even painful. Many people struggle with this condition for years, trying over-the-counter creams, polishes, or oral medications with limited success. At Bloomfield Family Footcare, we are proud to offer an advanced, safe, and effective solution: PinPointe™ Laser Nail Therapy.
What Is PinPointe™ Laser Nail Therapy?
PinPointe™ is the first FDA-cleared laser treatment specifically designed to target and clear nail fungus. Unlike topical creams that sit on the surface of the nail, or oral medications that may carry systemic side effects, PinPointe™ delivers focused laser light directly through the nail to eradicate the fungus at its source.
The treatment works by using a gentle laser beam that passes through the nail without damaging surrounding tissue. Most patients describe it as a warm sensation with little to no discomfort.
Benefits of PinPointe™ Laser Therapy
- Safe and FDA-cleared for toenail fungus treatment
- Quick procedure — usually 30 minutes or less per session
- No downtime — you can return to daily activities right away
- No drugs or side effects common with oral antifungals
- Proven results — clearer, healthier nails grow in over time
What to Expect During Treatment
- Evaluation: Your podiatrist will examine your nails and confirm if fungal infection is present.
- Laser Session: The PinPointe™ laser is applied to the affected nails. Most patients require just one session, though more severe cases may benefit from follow-up treatments.
- Aftercare: Since nails grow slowly, improvement becomes more noticeable as your healthy nail grows in over several months. Your podiatrist will also provide tips to prevent reinfection, such as keeping feet dry and disinfecting shoes.
Who Is a Good Candidate?
PinPointe™ is ideal for patients who:
- Have toenail fungus that hasn’t improved with creams or medications
- Want a safe, drug-free treatment option
- Are looking for long-term improvement in nail appearance and health
