Nail Fungal Treatment
@ Imogen Maria Beauty Studio
Clearanail is a fungal nail treatment system developed in the UK.
​If you have tried the other methods to treat fungal toenails and have considered laser treatment, then this is the treatment plan for you!
​
•Why aren't other treatments working?•
The active ingredients in anti-fungal lacquers have been proven in research to be very effective in eradicating fungal spores. However, this research often does not take into account the fact that there is a nail in between the treatment and the infection. This is the key to their failure. Most fungal infections are in the many layers of nail and the nail bed itself, meaning the fungus is well-protected from any anti-fungal treatment.
​
•How is Clearanail Different?​•
Clearanail removes the barrier to effective treatment - the nail. The treatment works by making multiple tiny holes (0.4mm) in the area affected by the fungal infection. You will then be sent home with a bottle of anti-fungal tincture to apply each day, which will sink into the holes, getting to the root of the infection. This means you see much quicker results in your nails.

INFORMATION
​•How long until I see results?•
Results have been reported as early as two weeks after the Clearanail session. Most people will see a difference within one month. We will take photos prior to treatment, at the end of the session and review you again to keep track of your progress.
​
•Will perforating the nail hurt?•
No. There will be some pressure felt on the nail, but no pain, bleeding or bruising. The drill is cleverly designed to sense a change in pressure and automatically shut down before it reaches the nail bed.
​
•How many sessions will I need?•
Just the one Clearanail session is needed to get the nail ready for your at home treatment with anti-fungal tincture.
​
•Laser treatment has been recommended to me, is Clearanail as good?•
We would recommend IPL and clearanail to clients with severe fungus. The Clearanail system uses medication proven to kill fungus, whilst the light and heat of the IPL also kills the fungus. Both treatments together work more effectively.
•Is Clearanail safe during pregnancy and breastfeeding, for older adults, for children, for diabetics, or for people with a pacemaker?•
The Clearanail machine has no contra-indications for use. This means the Clearanail session is totally safe for anyone. However, it is the active ingredient (Terbinafine) that you use afterwards that could have contraindications. It is best to ask your GP or midwife if using Terbinafine is safe for you.
​
•Will the fungus come back?•
Re-infection is possible as nail fungus is acquired from the environment. During the consultation, we will discuss how to prevent nail fungus infection in the future.
•What about nail polish?•
Nail polish and jewellery must be removed prior to treatment. We do not recommend that you use polish on your toes after the treatment as this can block the holes restricting the treatment from working.
We also recommend discarding any nail polish that you might have used previously as this may result in the infection coming back.
​​
•What do I need to do before the treatment?•
Clients must trim their nails before the appointment and remove all nail polish to ensure optimal efficacy
