Foot Care Specialists, PC – Quincy, MA
If your toenails have become thickened, discolored, brittle, or crumbly, you may be suffering from what’s commonly referred to as “ugly nail syndrome”—a result of fungal nail infections. These infections don’t just affect appearance; they can also spread and become painful if left untreated.
At Foot Care Specialists, PC in Quincy, MA, we offer cutting-edge laser nail therapy as a non-invasive, effective treatment for fungal nail infections—helping you achieve healthier-looking nails without the need for surgery or harsh medications.
Why Laser Nail Treatment?
Laser therapy is a safe, FDA-cleared method that uses targeted light energy to penetrate the nail plate and destroy fungal pathogens at their source—without harming surrounding tissues.
Benefits of Laser Nail Therapy
- Non-toxic: Avoid the potential side effects of oral antifungal pills, such as liver toxicity and drug interactions.
- Quick and convenient: Each session takes less than 15 minutes and requires no anesthesia or downtime.
- Virtually painless: Most patients report only a mild warming sensation during the procedure.
- Visible improvement in weeks: As the nail grows out, you’ll begin to see clearer, healthier nail tissue within 2–4 months.
Laser therapy is perfect for patients who want fast, safe, and cosmetically satisfying results.

Q&A: What You Need to Know About Laser Therapy
Q: How many sessions will I need?
A: Most patients notice significant improvement after one or two treatments. However, the number of sessions may vary depending on the severity of the infection.
Q: Is laser therapy safe?
A: Yes. It is FDA-cleared and has no known side effects. It’s a great option for those who cannot take oral antifungal medications.
Q: When will I see results?
A: Fungal nails grow out slowly. You can expect to see new, healthy nail growth starting in 2–4 months, with continued improvement over 6–12 months.
Q: Will my insurance cover this treatment?
A: Laser therapy for fungal nails is considered cosmetic and is typically not covered by insurance. However, many of our patients find it’s a worthwhile investment in their appearance and confidence.
Q: Can I combine laser treatment with other options?
