What is the best cure for toenail fungus?
The best known cure for toenail fungus is laser.
How does the laser treatment work?
The laser therapy works by using a specific wavelength laser light that passes through the nail and the surrounding tissue. The laser light is absorbed by pigment in the fungi, which causes it to heat and kill or damage the fungal organism. This results in your nail growing out normally.
