Laser Toenail Fungus Removal

Laser Treatment

Get your beautiful nails today. Led by Dr. Neha Delvadia, DPM, the Q-Clear Q-Switch™ laser treatment can effectively and efficiently rid you of unsightly toenail infections at our Marietta office.

Clinical Diagnosis

Do your toenails appear yellow, brittle or thickened?

If so, you may suffer from a toenail infection (onychomycosis). This progressive condition will continue to worsen over time if measures are not taken to stop the infection, ultimately leading to nail discomfort and pain. For residents in Marietta and East Cobb, dealing with humid Georgia summers often exacerbates these fungal infections.

Toenail infections can be caused by heavy foot perspiration, poor shoe/sock ventilation, or walking barefoot in damp areas such as a gym or locker room. Athletes and active individuals in the greater Atlanta area frequently encounter these issues.

Until recently, the only options for unsightly toenail infections were surgical removal of the nail combined with topical treatments or prescription medications. Now, with Dr. Neha Delvadia at our Marietta office, we offer the FDA-approved Q-Clear Q-Switch™ laser treatment for a safe, fast, and effective solution. You can also explore our KeryFlex nail restoration and medical pedicure services.

Common Indicators

Nail Discoloration

Thickened & Brittle Nails

Reduces painful pressure by thinning the nail bed over time and preventing splitting, crumbling, or scaling edges.

Distorted Nail Shapes

Restores natural horizontal contour growth and realigns nail plates.

Lifting Nail Bed

Eradicates underlying fungal infections that cause nails to detach from the skin.

Severe Fungal Nail Infection

Untreated onychomycosis causes the toenail plate to become thick, brittle, crumbly, and heavily discolored. Over time, the nail may lift from the nail bed, causing painful pressure.
