According to PinPointe Foot Laser is Said to Kill Toenail Fungus:

The patented PinPointe FootLaser System is a specially designed laser beam that goes through the toenail and safely reduces the infection in the nail bed that cause toenail fungus. The Pinpoint foot laser is said to be 88% more effective than any other treatment on the market. The laser light passes through the toenail and kills the fungus underneath. The toenail will not become instantly clear, it takes months for the nail to grow out taking the fungus with it. The treatment is not a preventative method for avoiding fungus nor does it prevent re-infection.

The PinPointe Foot Laser website is rather lacking in any actual information about the device. It’s made by a company called Patholase.

A few podiatrists seem to be on-board. Shouldn’t there be some clinical data available about this device? It seems like it probably works in a way similar the way a laser is used for tattoo removal. I’m waiting hear from the company on a couple of questions. No response yet.
