Fungal nail infection (Onychomycosis)

A fungal nail infection affects the hard material (keratin) that makes up the nails. Fungal nail infections can affect part or all of the nail, including the nail plate, nail bed and root of the nail.
 
The infection develops slowly and causes the nail to become discoloured, thickened and distorted. This infection is most common on toenails but can sometimes affect the fingernails.
 
We treat this problem by using special Phototherapy wavelengths. Depending on the extent of the problem we can also combine this treatment with antifungal medication.
