Laser Nail Fungal Infection CPD Training Course
Advanced Half-Day Training for Qualified Laser Therapists
Treat one of the most common and stubborn cosmetic concerns with confidence. Our CPD Accredited Laser Fungal Nail Infection Training Course is designed for qualified Level 4 Laser and IPL practitioners who want to expand their treatment offering with a safe, effective, and in-demand service—laser treatment for Onychomycosis (fungal nail infections).
This half-day course combines in-depth theory and practical hands-on training, using Q-Switch and long-pulse Nd:YAG lasers to effectively target and reduce fungal infections in the nail bed and nail plate.
Why Add Fungal Nail Laser Treatment to Your Clinic?
Fungal nail infections—known medically as Onychomycosis or Tinea Unguium—affect millions of people in the UK and globally. They often cause nails to become thickened, discoloured, brittle, and painful, with traditional treatments like creams and oral medications offering limited results.
Laser treatment offers a safe, fast, and highly effective alternative, using controlled heat to destroy the fungal sporeswithout damaging surrounding tissue. With minimal downtime and no need for harsh chemicals, clients are turning to aesthetic clinics for long-term relief from fungal nail infections.

What Is Onychomycosis?
Onychomycosis is a fungal infection of the nail bed and nail plate, commonly found in toenails but also affecting fingernails. It may appear as:

Laser treatment works by raising the temperature beneath the nail to destroy the fungal colony while encouraging healthy nail regrowth.
