Memphis, Tn Podiatrist Gets Feet Summer Ready With New Laser Treatment

    MEMPHIS, TN, August 14, 2011 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Well-known Memphis, TN podiatrist, Dr. Nathan Lucas, is pleased to now offer laser treatment for toenail fungus. Patients suffering from toenail fungus can now say good-bye to irritating nail fungus this summer with help from Dr. Lucas.

The laser treatment utilizes a laser light that passes through the toenails without causing damage to the nails or the surrounding skin. At the time of the laser nail procedure, the toenail will not become instantly clear - it takes time to grow out. Patients can first expect an initial consultation with Dr. Lucas, podiatrist in Memphis, before the laser treatment is performed.

"Most people feel very little pain or discomfort and may even feel a warming sensation while very few feel a pinprick. It is a simple procedure that allows patients to walk in and walk out. I want my patients to enjoy their summer with pretty feet and the laser treatment for toenail fungus allows me to do just that," said Dr. Nathan Lucas, bunion surgery Memphis, TN specialist.

The toenail fungus infection typically improves following one treatment. Generally a second treatment is recommended 6 months later which is included in the initial price for the procedure. Patients can apply polish immediately after the laser treatment, but it is important for patients to remove all nail polish and decorations the day before the final treatment.
