As seen on FOX4 News!

In this edition of Ask the Experts, FOX4’s Carey Wickersham talks with Dr. Thomas F. Bembynista about the proper ways to take care of your feet and attack nail fungus. Toenail fungus is a very common problem and is difficult to treat with any over-the-counter medication. Oral medications can take significant time and have complications to your liver, and possibly interact with other medications. The success rate is generally around 50%.

New advanced treatments are available with the use of lasers. With the new cutting-edge Lunula Laser treatment, nail fungus treatment is easier and more successful. In the past, Dr. Bembynista’s office has used lasers that produce heat to kill the nail fungus with good success. The new Lunula Laser is a cold laser. There is no heat production and it uses two different wavelengths with success rates near 90%. Laser Nail Fungus treatment requires 8 total treatments. Treatments are performed once a week for the first four weeks then one treatment approximately every 60 to 90 days for the next 11 months.

The office monitors you for improvement, changes generally occur within the first few months because it does take time for the nail to grow out.

Treatment FAQs

How effective is the Laser procedure?

Current studies show benefit in 89% of nails. It does take a few months to start seeing healthy nail growth. The laser has received FDA clearance for treatment of nail fungus.

How does the Laser work?

The Lunula Laser uses a revolutionary low-level laser therapy. Safe and effective, Lunula laser is the first and only non-thermal laser to receive FDA 510(k) market clearance. It poses none of the risks and harmful side effects of oral – antifungal medication and is painless, unlike other laser therapies.

What are the benefits of utilizing multiple diode Lunula Laser in treatments of Nail fungus?

1. The 405 nm wavelength of the Lunula Laser provides anti-microbial, antibacterial and anti-fungal effects. This is critical to treatment results. Other lasers only work on the anti-microbial, antibacterial and anti-fungal effects.

2. The Lunula Laser also uses a 635 nm wavelength for treating fungal nails. It offers a distinct advantage over the other lasers in that it also addresses and improves the blood flow to the tissue being treated and creates an immunologic function, which tends to prevent the recurrence of any fungus. This wavelength also induces tissue rejuvenation, increased vascularization, which enables the dual diode approach to accelerate the growth of new clear nail growth.

The Lunula Laser® is the only laser that does these additional features besides eliminating the fungus growth.

What do I do to get my nails ready for treatment?

You will need to remove all polish and lotions from the nail bed area the day before treatment. In addition, we may need to trim the nail before treatment, but we will take care of that if necessary.

What is the care after Laser treatment?

There is no need to take time off work or activities. You can polish the nails or get a pedicure immediately after treatment. However, you will need to spray all of your shoes with an anti-fungal spray to reduce the possibility of re-infection.

How much does Laser Treatment cost?

The treatment plan cost is $650 for one foot and $1100 for both feet.Treatment consists of 4 weekly treatments and follow up visits are at 90 days and 3 more treatments approximately 90 days apart for up to a year.The treatment take between 12 and 24 minutes.This include the initial consultation, any additional laser treatments during the 12 months that may be necessary along with a topical medication called Tolcylen which assist nail health and appearance

I just finished the initial 4 weekly cold laser treatments for my toenail fungus and the results are truly amazing! My toenails are finally clean and smooth after several years. I'm so grateful that Dr B recommended this easy and pain-free solution. I just had to sit and relax in his office for only 12 minutes once a week. Dr B is very knowledgeable and caring. He clearly explained the best treatment option in a straightforward manner. At the same time, he has a great sense of humor which made me feel at ease. It was always a pleasant experience visiting the office. Cindy and the rest of the staff are very welcoming and personable. I would highly recommend his services to family and friends!

I went to Dr. B for help with toenail fungus. He removed my right large toenail and half of my left large toenail. My toenails have grown back. They are beautiful and healthy looking! I also did laser treatments to kill the fungus from within. Tomorrow is my last laser treatment. Crazy as it sounds, I am kind of sad. Dr. B and his staff are so much fun that I feel like I am loosing some old friends…

I received the series of cold laser treatments for my big toe toenail. I should have taken before and after photos. I am very pleased with the results. My nail is growing straight and true. I have other foot issues and I can’t wait for my next appointment. If your feet aren’t right nothings right. See you soon Dr. B
