Fungal nail infections (onychomycosis) affect millions of Britons, causing nails to become discoloured, thickened, brittle and sometimes painful. These persistent infections occur when fungi infiltrate the nail through small cracks or separations between the nail and nail bed, thriving in a warm, moist environment. Risk factors include swimming pools, communal showers, tight footwear, diminished circulation, and weakened immune systems. Beyond cosmetic concerns, untreated fungal nail infections can spread to other nails or cause secondary bacterial infections.
At our clinics in Loughton in Essex and London, we provide effective fungal nail infection treatments using advanced technologies that target the infection at its source, helping to clear the affected nails and restore their natural, healthy appearance without the lengthy treatment times associated with traditional methods.
