Lunula Laser Fungal Nail Treatment
Lunula Laser Fungal Nail Treatment
The Lunula Laser is a non-invasive, low-level (cold) laser device designed for the painless treatment of onychomycosis (fungal nail infections) without heat, tissue damage, or oral medications.
Purpose
To eliminate fungal pathogens in the nail bed and matrix while promoting clear, healthy nail regrowth. It serves as a drug-free alternative for individuals seeking treatment for discolored, thickened, or brittle nails.
Function
The device operates using a dual-diode system that emits two low-power laser wavelengths simultaneously in a rotating beam that covers the entire foot or hand:
-
405 nm Wavelength (Antimicrobial): Triggers the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) to target and destroy fungal cell membranes.
-
635 nm Wavelength (Regenerative): Increases nitric oxide (NO) production to stimulate blood circulation and enhance local immune cell activity, accelerating healthy tissue repair and new nail growth.
Because it relies on photochemical interaction rather than heat, treatments are completely pain-free with no downtime or recovery period.
