Versatile Diode Laser In Podiatry For Foot Pain Toenail Fungus Wart Removal
 
Versatility for numerous indications
Berylas laser solution is ideal for the treatment of onychomycosis, plantar warts, neurovascular corns, intractable plantar keratosis (IPK), low-level laser therapy (LLLT) and small podiatric surgery.

• Highly effective in onychomycosis: Berylas destroys nail fungus by selective photothermolysis without damaging the nail plate or skin. It is highly effective, has no side effects and the procedures are very fast.
• Also for plantar warts: Berylas vaporises lesions effectively, quickly and safely, even in multiple plantar wart cases, and without side effects.
• Non-surgical solution for corns and IPK: The Berylas laser shortens recovery time after corn and IPK treatment. It also precludes the need to administer drug therapy and achieves visible improvement from the first session. Its use is indicated in both acute and chronic cases. It produces no residual pain or side effects.
• LLLT anti-pain therapy: The application of Berylas in LLLT mode produces an anti-inflammatory, analgesic and tissue regeneration effect in ulcers, post-surgical hallux valgus and painful and inflammatory conditions such as plantar fasciitis, Achilles tendinitis and metatarsalgia. LLLT shortens recovery time, precludes the need to administer drugs and can be combined with other treatments.
• Podiatric laser surgery: Another indication for Berylas is podiatric surgery. Its great cutting and coagulation capacity makes it a powerful surgical tool that minimises bleeding and provides high precision in procedures such as matricectomy.

Why choose Berylas?

• Highly effective in the treatment of onychomycosis
• Can be used in young and diabetic patients
• Can be used as a base treatment or in combination with other therapies
• Multi-application expandable platform for podiatric surgery

· Accelerated cellular growth and tissue repair. Cells absorb the photon energy, which results in faster growth and repair for our patients.
· Improved immune function. Laser light stimulates immunoglobulins and lymphocytes, both of which are essential components of your immune system.
· Improved vascular activity. The formation of new capillaries is particularly beneficial because this speeds up your healing process, reduces scar tissue, and closes wounds more quickly, thereby reducing your risk of potential infection.
· Increased metabolic activity. Not only do damaged cells receive greater quantities of nutrients, oxygen, and water from the enhanced blood circulation, they are also able to take in and use the nourishment more efficiently.

Podiatric Laser Treatments

Laser surgery is often a successful treatment for lesions, tumors and nail disorders. Laser treatments do not damage tissue in surrounding areas, are often painless, and allow patients to recover quickly. Two common conditions that are successfully treated with laser procedures are toenail fungus and warts.

Laser Toenail-Fungus Removal

Fungal toenails that do not respond to conventional treatments such as topical or oral medications are often effectively managed with a laser procedure. Certain lasers can precisely target the fungus and destroy it. The procedure is generally completed in 30 minutes to an hour.
Depending on the severity of the condition, some patients may require more than one laser-treatment session. The majority of patients can achieve optimal results by undergoing between one and four treatments. Visible results are not immediate; nails begin to look clear as they grow out in the months following treatment.

Laser Wart Removal

Warts on the foot (verruca or plantar warts) are noncancerous growths, caused by human papillomavirus (HPV), that develop on the soles of the feet. They can be successfully treated using a pulsed dye laser, which is especially effective on large warts that have grown internally, or spread to form a pattern of numerous warts.
For some patients, a local anesthetic is applied to the treatment area to numb it. The laser then precisely targets the blood vessels within the wart, which keeps nearby tissue from being harmed. The laser uses intense light energy delivered in rapid pulses to heat the capillaries that provide the wart's blood supply. This causes the blood vessels to seal, destroying the tissue within the wart. The number of treatments necessary varies depending upon several factors, including the size of the warts and how many there are. Frequently, the warts are eliminated within one to five laser sessions.
Patients are able to return to all normal activities immediately following treatment. For several days after the laser procedure, the treatment site may be somewhat uncomfortable. It may also remain slightly discolored for a number of weeks.

What causes toenail fungus?

Toenail fungus is caused when fungal bodies called dermatophytes invade the area under the toenail and cause an infection. The area under the nail is protected and kept warm and moist by shoes and socks, providing ideal growing conditions for the fungus and making toenail fungus especially hard to treat. The fungus that causes toenail infections can typically be found in damp areas like public pools, locker room floors, showers and pedicure salons.

What kinds of symptoms do toenail fungal infections cause?

Initially, the fungus will cause a yellowish or whitish discoloration to form under the nail. Over time, the discoloration will spread to the remainder of the nail, and the nail will become brittle and ragged. Infected nails can cause pain and itching, with pain increasing when pressure is applied or when wearing shoes. Fungal infections can occur more commonly among people with diabetes or other conditions that impair circulation and make it more difficult for the immune system to fight off infections. People with a family or personal history of toenail infections are also more likely to become infected.

How is laser toenail fungus removal performed?

Toenail fungus can be especially stubborn to treat successfully because it extends into the deeper layers of tissue beneath the protective nail plate. Laser treatment for toenail fungus uses a special laser designed to transmit focused energy deep below the skin, targeting the fungal bodies and destroying them at their roots. The Laser Genesis by Cutera provides optimized laser treatment for toenail fungus by using strong bursts of energy in a delivery system that is FDA-approved for toenail fungus treatment, so patients can experience better results than many other types of treatments. Depending on the severity of the toenail fungus, the laser can be used as a standalone treatment or in combination with other treatments for maximum results.
