Onychomycosis is persistent fungal infection of the toe or finger nails. A new safe effective therapy to improve the aesthetic appearance of fungal nails is to treat with NdYag laser. Fungi are heat sensitive. The power of the Ndyag laser light is used to heat the affected nail evenly thereby weakening and destroying the fungi which has infected the patients nail.

Chemical Peels

With increasing use of nail paints, nail art, acetone, repeated manicures, cosmetic nail procedures and detergents the nail plate undergoes repeated damage resulting in rough lusterless and pigmented nails. Besides that fungal infection of nails, lichen planus infecting nails, nail pitting and ridging due to various diseases also cause cosmetically disfiguring nails. Chemical peels for the nails could result in shinier, smoother and brighter nails making them cosmetically pleasing.

Iontophoresis

It is an electro chemical process, in which a small direct current is used on the skin or scalp to deliver medication at a constant rate to a depth of 6-20mm. The treatment works on the principle that charged ions in the skin are either attracted or repelled from the electrodes resulting in certain chemical effects. It is a painless, sterile, non-invasive technique.
