Using the Candela GentleMax Pro
Toenail fungus (onychomycosis) is a common and often persistent condition that affects the appearance and structure of the nail. It may cause discoloration, thickening, brittleness, or lifting of the nail and often develops gradually over time.
Laser therapy using the Candela GentleMax Pro is a non-invasive treatment option designed to help reduce fungal activity and support healthier nail growth over time. This treatment focuses on improving the nail environment rather than producing immediate cosmetic changes.
How Does the Treatment Work?
The Candela GentleMax Pro delivers controlled laser energy through the nail plate into the nail bed. The laser generates heat that targets the environment where fungal organisms thrive, helping disrupt fungal activity and support healthier nail regrowth.
