The GenesisPlus is a multipurpose laser system designed to provide a fast and effective solution for a wide range of podiatric conditions, including onychomycosis. Its state-of-the-art design allows for customized treatments tailored to each patient’s individual concerns.

GenesisPlus — the premium laser for onychomycosis. — this state of the art laser, provides a fast and effective solution for nail fungus, with virtually no downtime.

How does the GenesisPlus work to clear nail fungus?

Laser light from GenesisPlus passes through the nail and the surrounding tissue.  The laser light is absorbed by pigment in the fungi, which causes the pigment to heat, and this heat kills or damages the fungal organism.  This can result in your nail growing normally.

What can you expect?

The treatment involves passing the laser beam over the infected nails and surrounding skin. Your foot specialist will repeat this several times until enough energy has reached the nail bed.  Your nail will feel warm during the treatment.

–  A single treatment session takes approximately 20 minutes

–  Most patients show some improvement after three treatments, but the required number of treatments will vary depending on how severely each digit is infected. Most patients will require 5-7 sessions to see major improvements.

–  Remove all nail polish or gloss the day before the procedure.

–  The procedure is generally comfortable with a small hot “pinch” that can be felt by some patients, but resolves quickly. Most patients describe the treatment as a “warm” sensation, but not uncomfortable, or painful.

–  Immediately following the procedure your nail may feel warm for a few minutes.  You can resume normal activities immediately.

–  If treatment is successful, you will see new, healthy nail begin to grow. It is important to remember that nails grow slowly, so it may take up to 12 months to see an entirely clear nail.
