PACT Fungal Nail Therapy
Treatment of fungal toe nails
PACT Fungal Nail Therapy
Fungal Nail infections (or Onychomycosis) is a very common condition we see and treat. It can be a concern for many, especially the visual appearance. Onychomycosis can cause the nail to become discoloured (yellow, white, brown), brittle and thickened.
Photodynamic Therapy (PACT) is a recent advancement in the treatment of fungal toe nails. PACT uses a UV-sensitive gel and UV light to target and kill the active fungal spores. This treatment first involves your Podiatrist removing as much of the affected toe nail as possible and then treating the nails with PACT. Three sessions are required in the first week and then a follow up session is scheduled four weeks later. This treatment is pain-free and has no reported side effects.
