Treatment of Onychomycosis Using a 0.65 Millisecond Pulsed Nd:YAG 1064 nm Laser

Completed · Not applicable

Conditions studied: Onychomycosis

In brief

The investigators would like to test the treatment of onychomycosis using a 0.65 millisecond pulsed 1064 nm laser fitted with a special onychomycosis handpiece. The investigators will compare the success rates of those receiving laser treatments with untreated patients. This study will provide a clinical basis for determining the relative effectiveness of an increasingly utilized treatment method.
