Lasers have been used extensively the past 7-10 years for toenail fungus treatment, resulting with numerous clinical studies; Laser manufacturers have used these results over the years to learn how to better design their equipment enabling them to maximize therapeutic effects.

Is there clinical evidence to prove that laser treatment really cures toenail fungus?

What are the benefits of using laser treatment over drug treatment?
