Another company called PathoLase has a system called PinPointe FootLaser.  If these treatments really work, then it would be a valid option for getting treatment for your toenail fungus.  In time, the treatments may become as widespread as LASIK is for the eyes.  However, these treatments are not cheap and may not be covered by your medical insurance.  You’ll want to check with your insurance company before undergoing the treatment.

Has anyone tried these laser treatments for nail fungus? Would you care to share your experience?
