Feel confident in your feet again with Lunula Laser treatment!
A New Approach to Fungal Nail Treatment.
For many people fungal nails can be an ongoing and frustrating problem. You may have tried topical treatments, prescription medications or at-home remedies, seeing little to no improvement after weeks or months of effort. Fungal nails can have a significant impact on your confidence and quality of life, causing embarrassment over the appearance of your thickened or discoloured toenails and limitations in your footwear choices.
If you’ve struggled to find a solution that works, the Lunula Laser may be what you’ve been looking for.
How Does the Lunula Laser Work?
The Erchonia® Lunula Laser is a cutting-edge, non-invasive treatment that harnesses low-level laser technology to combat fungal nail infections. It works by combining two different wavelengths of laser light. One is designed to penetrate the nail to destroy the fungal cells at their source while the other works to stimulate the body’s natural immune response. Together, these wavelengths aim to improve blood flow to the area and create an environment that prevents fungal regrowth, helping your nails return to their naturally clear and healthy condition.
Unlike traditional treatments such as topical solutions and oral medications that have low rates of success and often come with side effects or health risks, the Lunula Laser is a simple and non-invasive procedure with a demonstrated success rate. In a clinical trial (“A Retrospective Study of Non-Thermal Laser Therapy for the Treatment of Toenail Onychomycosis”), 67% of treated toenails achieved individual treatment success, while 89% showed an increase in clear nail growth over the six-month study period.
The Lunula Laser Treatment Process.
One of the key advantages of the Lunula Laser is the simplicity and ease of the treatment process. The procedure takes very little time, requires no post-treatment downtime and it poses no known risk or harmful side effects. The Lunula Laser operates at a cold level, ensuring there should be no heat or discomfort experienced during the session.
Before undergoing treatment with the Lunula Laser, one of our qualified podiatrists will assess your nails for fungal nail conditions. Accurate diagnosis is essential, as other conditions such as psoriasis, trauma or melanoma may also cause nail discolouration and will require different treatment options. A proper assessment ensures that the most appropriate treatment plan is recommended for your specific condition.
Treatment with the Lunula Laser is administered by one of our experienced podiatrists and involves placing each affected foot inside the machine for a 12-minute period. The machine targets all nails on each foot which ensures that any fungus that has spread to other toes is addressed. Once your session is complete, you can go about your day as normal with no post treatment care required.
Each session also includes a complementary footwear sterilisation to remove any fungal particles inside your shoes, reducing the chances of reinfection.

Your Lunula Laser Questions Answered.
How many sessions of Lunula Laser treatment are usually needed?
At least four sessions are usually recommended for a standard treatment plan, however the number and frequency of sessions will depend on the severity of your fungal infection and your individual circumstances. Our team will assess your needs and recommend an appropriate treatment plan for you.
Can I use Lunula Laser alongside other fungal nail treatments?
Generally, you will not need to use other treatment options such as medications or topical treatments alongside the Lunula Laser. Your podiatrist may recommend some foot hygiene practices to support your treatment and reduce the risk of recurrence.
Will I see results immediately?
The Lunula Laser works by supporting the body's natural processes, rather than providing an immediate visible change. Results generally start to become visible as the infected portion grows out and is replaced by healthy nail. It is important to remember that results may vary based on individual circumstances, including the severity of the infection, adherence to foot hygiene practices, and personal health factors. Your podiatrist will be able to provide personalised guidance on expected timeframes for your treatment.
Will my fungal nail infection come back after treatment?
As with all fungal nail treatments, recurrence is possible. Maintaining good foot hygiene and following any aftercare advice provided by your podiatrist may help reduce the likelihood of reinfection.
