Nail Fungus

About the Condition

Nail fungus, also known as onychomycosis, is a common condition that causes thickened, discoloured, and brittle nails. If left untreated, it can spread and lead to discomfort or persistent infections. Our Nail Fungus Treatment offers a safe, non-invasive laser solution that effectively targets and eliminates fungal infections in both toenails and fingernails. Unlike oral medications, which can have side effects, this treatment works externally to destroy fungus at the source, encouraging healthier nail regrowth over time.

THE BENEFITS:

  • Eliminates Fungal Infections in Toenails & Fingernails
    Uses advanced laser technology to penetrate the nail and destroy the underlying infection, without damaging the surrounding tissue.
  • Safe, Non-Invasive Alternative to Oral Medications
    No need for prescription antifungal drugs, which may cause liver toxicity or unwanted side effects.
  • Encourages Healthy Nail Regrowth Over Time
    Helps nails grow back clearer, stronger, and free from infection as new, healthy nail tissue forms.
  • Quick, Comfortable, & No Downtime
    Sessions are fast and painless, with no recovery time required, so you can return to daily activities immediately.
  • Targets Fungus at the Source
    Unlike topical treatments that only address surface symptoms, laser therapy penetrates deep into the nail bed to eradicate fungal infections.
  • Reduces Nail Discolouration & Thickening
    Over time, treated nails become clearer and healthier, improving both appearance and texture.
  • Prevents Reinfection & Further Spread
    By eliminating the active fungal infection, this treatment reduces the risk of recurrence and prevents the condition from worsening.

How it Works?

The laser emits focused energy that penetrates the nail plate, heating the infected tissue and destroying fungal cells without harming the surrounding skin. This process stops fungal growth, allowing the nail to gradually grow out clearer and healthier over the following months.

Treatment Areas

  • Toenails
    Targets thick, discoloured, or brittle nails commonly affected by fungal infections.
  • Fingernails
    Effectively treats nail fungus that affects the hands, restoring a clear, healthy nail appearance.

What to Expect?

Side Effects:
Most patients experience no pain or discomfort during treatment. Some may feel a mild warming sensation as the laser penetrates the nail. Temporary redness or slight sensitivity in the treated area may occur but typically resolves within a few hours.

After Treatment Care:

  • Keep nails clean and dry to prevent reinfection.
  • Avoid walking barefoot in public showers, pools, or gyms, as these are common sources of fungal exposure.
  • Wear breathable cotton socks and moisture-wicking shoes to reduce fungal growth.
  • Disinfect nail clippers and avoid sharing footwear or personal hygiene tools.
  • Follow your provider’s recommended treatment plan for optimal results.

When will I see results?

Because nails grow slowly, improvements become visible as the nail gradually grows out, typically over 3–6 months.

Reviews From Our Happy Clients

“The Oxygen facial itself was nothing short of amazing. Denisha was thorough, ensuring every step of the process was carefully explained, and she tailored the treatment to my specific skin needs..”

I recently had the pleasure of receiving an Oxygen facial, and I cannot express enough how impressed I was with the outstanding customer service and professionalism throughout the entire experience. From the moment I walked in, I was greeted by Christina with warmth and attentiveness, which made me feel incredibly welcome.

 

Overall, the experience was exceptional. The combination of top-notch service, professionalism, and an incredible facial treatment has left me with glowing skin and a lasting impression. I highly recommend this to anyone looking for a truly rejuvenating experience.

“Finally I did an oxygenio facial with Rabiie. It was great for my skin after a couple months in the summer and left me looking fresh and rejuvenated..”

I just did my first Russian manicure with Anastasiya and all I can say is WOW. I’ve been doing shellac manicures for years now and it has almost become a burden to schedule it every 2 weeks because the shellac always peels and looks grown out after about a week. My manicure with Anastasiya was impeccable. She spent her time making sure my cuticles were impeccable and then took her time doing the shellac. I’ve never had a more perfect manicure. It’s been a few weeks now and it still looks great! It takes a little bit longer (1.5 hours) but totally worth the time and money if I only have to go every month or so.

 

All in all, a great couple of hours spent pampering myself at this spa. The space is gorgeous and makes it easy to relax (something I rarely get as a mom of 3).

 

Highly recommend!

“Definitely now my go-to recommendation for nails! Had a pedicure with Binoda and she was absolutely amazing.”

On the pricier side for a pedicure (expected for Liberty Village of course), but worth every penny as someone who works 10+ hours on their feet everyday and hasn’t gotten anywhere close to this type of treatment at your typical nail salon.

 

Customer service is also amazing, a woman came in during my treatment and I happened to overhear the conversation. She was very rude and confrontational right from the start, the employee at the desk handled the entire interaction a heck of a lot better than I would’ve if I were her.
10/10 overall!

“If you’ve never tried it, it’s worth every penny and you won’t understand the difference until you try it. ”

CURES Beaute is by far the best nail place I’ve been to in Toronto!! Being originally from New York City and having tried a lot of nail places in my lifetime, I would say I’m pretty picky. Anastasia is the absolutely best and gave me my first life-changing Russian manicure, and I now go back regularly for one

 

She has a level of detail and precision like no other technician I’ve been to, her care is top notch, she’s kind, and I leave with the most impeccable nails!! The way she cuts your cuticles prevents that annoying thing that happens with a gel manicure where you start to have a space between the cuticle and nail color as your nails grow. If Anastasia isn’t available, Emilie is also very good and sweet! Customer service from both is 10/10!

- Erin Switzer

“The level of care and detail she put into my manicure was out of this world, she also shaped and painted my nails beautifully.”

Wow – Not to be dramatic but I got my nails done by Disha, and she gave me hands down the BEST manicure of my entire life. Not kidding.

 

She really listened to what I was asking for, and, gave great advice as well. If that’s not enough she was also so kind and lovely as well. CURES overall was a great experience – super cleanly, super professional. Top level experience for an appropriate price. Never thought I’d “have a nail place”, but I will only be going to CURES moving forward, and asking for Disha every time!
