<\/p>\nMany Australians have unsightly fungal toenails (Onychomycosis), with statistics indicating that up to 10% of us suffer this condition in silence.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
However, the chances of acquiring a fungal nail rises sharply with age, and up to 50% of people over the age of 60 have one of more nails infected.<\/span><\/p>\n One of the frustrations people experience is poor or incomplete results with topical treatments. Outside of topical creams and ointments, the only option was a long course of oral anti-fungals which meant taking a tablet for at least 3 months and some possible side effects. It is no wonder that this revolutionary and clinically proven treatment has gained great traction around the world with over 1 hundred thousand procedures completed and more than 1 million nails treated to date.<\/p>\n Multisite clinical trials completed to date indicate success rates of at least 71%, although many practitioners who minimised cross infection risks have reported success rates in excess of 88% making it the most effective treatment on the market.<\/p>\n At my FootDr podiatry centres we have implemented a comprehensive assessment plan to ensure that the treatment really gets to the cause of the problem. This includes:-<\/p>\n -An initial assessment to determine if there is a fungal nail infection present,<\/p>\n -A review of the cause of the infection, A treatment plan outlining the most appropriate management,<\/p>\n -Measures to ensure that once the infection is eradicated that the chances for re-infection are minimised<\/p>\n Act now and secure your initial assessment at any one of our 21 locations, or request an online appointment.<\/p>\n We have two different kinds of laser, both cold and thermal types, and depending on your individual presentation we will find the very best treatment for you.<\/p>\n \n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Many Australians have unsightly fungal toenails (Onychomycosis), with statistics indicating that up to 10% of us suffer this condition in silence.
