Fotona ClearSteps®
Dive into the Tech
Fotona® ClearSteps harnesses advanced Nd:YAG laser technology to precisely target and eradicate fungal infections in the nails.
This method offers a significant advantage by avoiding the use of oral medications or chemicals, thus eliminating the risk of dangerous side effects associated with conventional treatments.
How it Works
This treatment consists of three comprehensive steps
Step 1
The nail is filed down before treatment to allow the laser light to fully penetrate the affected area, maximizing the effectiveness of the therapy.
Step 2
The Nd:YAG laser safely penetrates the nail, evenly heating the nail bed to eliminate fungi and promote healthy restoration.
Step 3
The Nd:YAG wavelength targets the perimeter of the nail bed and surrounding tissue to help prevent recurrence of the fungus.
