Leonard and his staff at My Podiatrist have partnered with Lunar Laser to provide you with state-of-the-art, laser-based treatment options from trained professionals (Podiatrists) without having to undergo any type of surgery. With the use of current technology, modern laser-based treatment options have dramatically increased the number of conservative options available for people with both foot problems and skin problems. If you’ve considered getting laser-based treatment but don’t know which would be best for your particular situation, you can trust that you’ll receive the highest level of foot or skin care possible from either My Podiatrist or Lunar Laser.
Benefits of laser treatments using Lunar Technology.
- 1) Performance and Precision: Laser technology is highly targeted. This means that we can treat your specific problem (e.g., fungal nail infection, skin lesions, unwanted hair) while not harming the surrounding tissue.
- 2) Results Last Longer: Laser treatment creates permanent results (as opposed to temporary results from other treatments)—most of our clients see continued improvement after their last session.
- 3) Little-to-No downtime: Most of our procedures are performed quickly with little or no soreness and approximately zero recovery time so you can return to your daily activities.
- 4) Clinically Proven and Safe: Our Lunar Laser technology has been tested in a clinical setting and is only performed by medically-trained podiatrists; therefore, you can feel safe and secure during and after your treatment.
- 5) Increased Self-Confidence: Many clients have reported an increase in self-confidence after their first few treatments whether it is due to clearer skin or healthier nails.
- 6) Treatment Plans Tailored to You: We realise each patient is unique; therefore, our podiatrists develop a personalised treatment plan for each client based on your needs to achieve the best results.
- 7) The New Way to Treat Feet: Laser treatment is the next generation of treatment for foot-related problems; they are effective, affordable, and designed to help you feel good about yourself from the ground up.
Aftercare: Protecting and Maximizing Results
Proper care of the treatment areas is crucial to achieving the optimum result after receiving Lunar Laser at My Podiatrist. Please adhere to the following aftercare directions:
Avoid Direct Sunlight
Use sunscreen of at least SPF 50+ on the treated areas every day and try to stay out of direct sunlight as much as possible during your recovery period.
Keep Your Skin Cool and Hydrated
Use gentle, free of fragrance moisturizers that do not irritate your skin to soothe and hydrate the treated area.
Avoid Heat and Sweating
Stay away from hot showers, saunas, steam rooms and high-intensity exercise for 24-48 hours post treatment to avoid skin irritation.
Do Not Irritate or Pick at the Treated Area
Let your skin or nails heal naturally. Do not pick or scratch at the treated areas, or put pressure on them.
Follow Directions for Hair Removal
Do not wax or pluck the treated area after having hair removed with laser. The best way to remove any hair between treatments is to shave.
Use Gentle Skin Care Products
After your treatment, for a few days avoid any active skin care ingredients like retinol, AHAs, BHAs or strong acids to reduce sensitivity.
Continue Following Your Treatment Plan
For maximum success continue following the treatment schedule suggested by your podiatrist. Consistency is vital to achieving and maintaining optimal results
