What Is Pact Fungal Nail Therapy?
Fungal nail infection, otherwise known as Onychomycosis, is a common issue that can affect one, some or all of your toe nails.
At the start of a fungal infection, there are usually no symptoms. The nails can then become thick and painful when they press on the inside of a shoe, they can then be hard to trim. The nail can become uneven, raised and create pressure on the nail bed. Sometimes the infection invades the skin of the toe, which can cause local inflammation and pain.
The nail can also become discoloured, turning white or yellowish and become crumbly which can make you more self-conscious about your feet.

Fungal toenail infections can be caused by a number of different strains of fungus and yeasts. Medical conditions such as psoriasis, eczema, circulation problems and trauma to the nail can look like a fungal infection. It is important to correctly identify that there is an infection in the nail prior to treatment.
Not all fungal nails need treatment, some patients with a fungal infection are not bothered by them and cause them no discomfort. In that case they can sometimes be left alone ( although patients should remain cautious to avoid spreading the infection to other parts of the body and nails). If the affected nails are uncomfortable or causing a concern then they are usually treated and this treatment is often carried out by a podiatrist.
The aim of the treatment is to get rid of the fungus, the nail will then usually return to normal. Treatment options include a topical based treatment or an oral based treatment. Topical based treatments, such as ones your podiatrist can give you are usually very successful in getting rids of the fungus. Topical treatment will take 3- 12months. This is because the infected and damaged nail does not heal, but instead needs to grow out. However, sometimes they may not be able to clear the deeper parts of an infected nail, though regular removal of abnormal nail material with clippers or filing can help with this. Your podiatrist can offer you further information in the management of your nails.

There is a possibility that your nails may not return to normal appearance after treatment. This is because of permanent damage to the nail cells may have occurred while the infection was present.

Chronic fungal nail (onychomycosis) infections are a challenging dermatogoical disease to eradicate. For an experienced podiatrist specialising in treating fungal finger and toe nails this poses no problem.

On average just 5 – 9 days post-operatively the nail bed is dry. Lunula laser treatments can now start. The Lunula laser is totally painless. It combines the powerful effect of 2 proven therapeutic laser wave-lengths to accelerate quick nail growth. It will target and eradicate any rogue fungal spores.

In chronically infected nails spores are trapped in treatment resistant biofilms.

Toenails grow at just 1 – 1.62mm per month. A big toenail can take 12 – 18 months to fully grow back from it’s base (matrix) to distal free edge. A fungal infected nail has retarded nail growth with very little forward expansion, but more upward thickening. The Lunula laser has an FDA clinical acknowledgement for substantially accelerate nail plate growth. This is essential when tackling recalcitrant fungal nail infections. The quicker the nail growth, the success rates exponentially increase. Basically stopping dermaphytes in their tracks and allowing the body to fight back.
A session of Lunula laser will increase blood flow and nutrition to the nail’s germinal matrix. The result is a burst of new keratin nail cell turnover. Nail growth can be doubled, also the actual nail bed structure is reconditioned and strengthened. Just weeks after a nail plate removal there can appear to be a new nail plate. This is noted with smaller digits. It is a ‘pseudo’ nail, just keratinisation of the nail bed’s epidermis. Can be confused with new regrowth, but the actual nail plate is still on it’s way.
Patience is required and it does pay-off. Healthy new nail regrowth is soon observed. Nail plate development is normalised which was not achieved with conservative fungal nail treatments even oral drug therapy. It must be taken into consideration that a fungal infected nail has slow growth. If most of the nail plate is occluded with mycotic infection right down to the base, a long course of oral medication must be taken for 6-9 months. This is to safely get nail infection pushed out to free edge. A short course of drugs will have a high failure rate. Unfortunately, even after long course, for some individuals there may still be the presence of a drug resistant biofilm.

One of the major benefits of this treatment approach compared to just having a course of Lunula laser, is patients are closely monitored up to a year. This is how we can state a 95% cure rate. Lunula laser treatment outcomes are not well recorded in literature reviews past 3 months. Patients with infected nails have a course of Lunula and then disappear. Are they cured or do they get re-infected and just give up?
