The laser radiation wavelength of 1064 nm enables the device to treat and prevent the development of nail fungus, and has a direct effect on the mycelium, consisting of a network of hyphae – tightly intertwined fine filamentary tubules.
It is the hyphae that support the vital activity of dermatophytes and other pathogenic fungi that affect the nails, by ensuring the absorption of fluid and nutrients..
The need for thermal deactivation of additional pathogens, such as:
