At Serene Med Spa in Huntington and Barboursville, WV, we specialize in providing advanced laser therapy that targets fungus at the root, offering faster improvement than topical creams and without the risks associated with oral medications.
At Serene Med Spa in Huntington and Barboursville, WV, we provide advanced laser nail fungus treatment using the FDA-approved Quanta 4V Nd:YAG laser. This modern, non-invasive technology targets fungus safely, effectively, and without the side effects or frustrations that come with topical creams or oral medications.
What Is Nail Fungus?
Nail fungus develops when microscopic organisms enter through small cracks in the nail or surrounding skin. Because it thrives in warm, dark, and moist environments—like shoes—it can be difficult to eliminate without professional treatment.
Common signs include:
Yellow or brown discoloration
Thickened, brittle nails
Warped or crumbling nail edges
White spots that grow larger over time
Pain or pressure under the nail
Left untreated, onychomycosis can spread to other nails, the skin, and occasionally the fingernails as well.
For general information about onychomycosis, visit the American Academy of Dermatology (AAD).
Why Choose Laser Nail Fungus Treatment?
Traditional over-the-counter antifungal creams typically struggle to penetrate the nail plate, which prevents them from reaching the fungus living underneath. Oral antifungal medications can be effective but may cause side effects, including liver-related risks, interactions with other medications, or digestive upset.
Laser nail fungus treatment offers several advantages:
✔ Direct targeting of fungal organisms
Laser energy penetrates the nail and nail bed to heat and destroy fungal colonies at the source.
✔ Safe and non-invasive
No anesthesia, no incisions, and no recovery time.
✔ Collagen and tissue stimulation
The laser encourages natural healing and helps restore a healthier nail environment.
✔ Long-lasting results
With proper post-care, healthy nail growth gradually replaces the damaged nail.

Results & Timeline
Laser Nail Fungus Treatment works with your body’s natural nail growth cycle.
Fingernails may take 6–9 months to fully grow out healthy
Toenails may take 9–12 months
Most patients need 3–5 treatments spaced 4–6 weeks apart for best results
Results appear gradually as new, clear nail grows in, replacing the infected nail.
How to Prevent Reinfection
Keeping nails fungus-free requires ongoing care:
Use antifungal creams or sprays for 2–12 weeks post-treatment
Apply antifungal powder or spray inside shoes weekly
Wear breathable shoes and moisture-wicking socks
Rotate shoes to allow them to fully dry
Wear sandals in public pools, locker rooms, and saunas
