Fungal Nail treatment
Southlake & DFW Area
At Medrein Health & Aesthetics in Southlake, TX, we offer Fungal Nail Treatment to eliminate infections and restore healthy, clear nails.
What Is Fungal Nail Treatment?
Fungal nail treatment is a medical procedure designed to eliminate fungal infections affecting the toenails or fingernails. The most effective approach involves laser therapy, which penetrates the nail bed to destroy the fungus at its source without damaging surrounding tissue.
Other treatments may include topical or oral antifungal medications. Laser treatment is a safe, non-invasive, and effective option for improving nail health, appearance, and strength over time.
Symptoms of Fungal Nail Infection
- Thickened nails
- Brittle with jagged edges
- Change of color to yellowish-brown
- Yellow or white spots under the tip of the nail
- Nails look dull and lose all sheen
- Nail shape gets distorted as it lifts off from the nail bed
- Gives off an unpleasant smell
Factors That Cause Fungal Nail Infection
- An injury in the nail or the skin surrounding it
- Nail ingrowths due to incorrect nail trimming
- Detachment of nails from the nail bed
- Sweaty hands and feet
- Diseases such as diabetes, poor blood circulation, and weakened immunity
- Athlete’s foot
- Skin disorders like psoriasis
- Overuse of artificial nails
- Nails exposed to high germ-prone public spaces such as gyms, public showers, saunas, and swimming pools
- Wearing closed-toe footwear for extended periods
The Most Effective Fungal Nail Infection Treatments in Southlake, TX, at Medrein Health & Aesthetics
Our board-certified specialist offers fungal nail treatment options that work best for your condition. The nail, if left untreated, may spread and affect the adjoining healthy nails as well. Some of their recommended treatments are:
Topical Medications
Our podiatrist may prescribe topical antifungal medications that are mostly available as a medicated nail polish or nail cream. While the polish can be applied directly to the nail, the cream is applied on the nail after thinning the nail plate for more effective results.
Oral Medications
Oral antifungal medication can be effective for some fungal conditions and provide faster relief. Our physician may prescribe oral medications such as:
- Terbinafine
- Fluconazole
- Itraconazole
- Griseofulvin
Laser Treatment
Our laser treatment procedure is not only safe but also among the best anti-nail fungus treatments, with a high success rate. The treatment includes exposing the affected nails to laser rays that heat the layers of the nail tissues. The rays target the microorganisms under the nail tissues responsible for the fungal infection and destroy them.
