laser treatment of nail disease

Nail disease, including ingrown nails, onychomycosis and nail malnutrition, is difficult to treat clinically, causing great problems for patients and doctors. Due to the slow growth of nails, it is difficult for external medicine to enter the nail bed through the deck, which makes the treatment of many nail diseases long, the patient compliance is poor, and the disease recurrence rate is high. In recent years, a variety of lasers, such as CO2 laser, Nd:YAG laser, diode laser, CO2 dot matrix laser, etc., have been widely used in the treatment of common nail diseases such as ingrown toxin, onychomycosis and nail dystrophy. CO2 laser can quickly destroy local tissue, remove hypertrophic hyperthyroidism, and instantly coagulate small blood vessels, achieving good results in the treatment of incisor. Nd:YAG laser, CO2 dot matrix laser and diode laser provide a new treatment option for onychomycosis. The micro-treatment area formed by CO2 dot laser can significantly enhance the penetration and absorption of topical drugs in the nail, which also shows a positive effect in the treatment of nail dystrophy.

The application of lasers provides a new option for the treatment of Class nail diseases. Its potential is unlimited, and it will bring patients a more effective, safe and comfortable treatment experience, and may become the treatment of choice for doctors and patients. However, more research is needed in the clinic to further determine the optimal treatment parameters and protocols, including laser energy and coverage, in order to achieve the best results. At the same time, potential risks still need to be closely watched and minimized by more research.
