Product Information

A fungal nail infection occurs from the overgrowth of fungi, under, or on the nail. Fungal nail infections tend to cause visual damage to the nails and, if left untreated, can lead to loss of the nail. Onychomycosis is the medical term for a fungal nail (‘fungal: mycosis – nail: onycho’) that can occur on toenails and fingernails. Fungi are microscopic organisms that do not need sunlight to survive. Some fungi have beneficial properties, while others may cause infection and illness. Remember to always speak to your GP if you are concerned, and also remember to be patient - it can take six months to a year after the treatment has finished before the nail looks normal again.
