ClearSteps™ Laser Treatment for Nail Fungus
Healthier Nails. No Chemicals. No Side Effects.
At The Derm Edit, we offer Fotona's ClearSteps™ Onychomycosis Treatment — a safe, painless, and highly effective way to treat stubborn nail fungus using advanced Nd:YAG laser technology. This revolutionary method penetrates deep into the nail and surrounding skin tissue, targeting the fungus at its source without harming the surrounding healthy tissue.
Why Choose ClearSteps™?
1. Treats Fungus at the Root
- Deep, pulse-profile laser heating destroys fungal colonies in the nail bed and surrounding tissue
- Promotes natural nail regrowth through your body's own healing process
2. No Chemicals. No Liver Risks.
- Unlike oral antifungal medicines, there's no hepatotoxicity (liver damage risk)
- Unlike topical creams, laser light spreads evenly through the nail — not limited by chemical absorption
How It Works
Three Simple Steps for Healthier Nails:
- Step 1: Gentle filing of the affected nail to remove thickness and improve laser penetration.
- Step 2: Nd:YAG laser pulses are applied across the entire nail in a circular, overlapping pattern for complete coverage.
- Step 3: Targeted laser treatment around the nail bed and surrounding skin to eliminate hidden fungal spores and prevent recurrence.
Treatment Plan
- 4 weekly sessions for optimal results
- All nails are treated at every visit (even those that look healthy)
- Can also target fungal infections in surrounding skin tissue
