Fungal nail infections (onychomycosis) are extremely common, but they can also be stubborn, slow to improve, and difficult to treat with creams or tablets alone. At Laser + Light Skin Clinic, I use the DEKA Motus AY, a powerful medical‑grade Nd:YAG laser, to safely and effectively target the fungus deep within the nail.
This treatment is non‑invasive, comfortable, and designed to help restore clearer, healthier‑looking nails over time.
Clearer, healthier‑looking nails with advanced medical‑grade laser technology.
Fungal nail infections occur when dermatophytes (fungus) penetrate the nail plate and nail bed. This can cause:
Although not harmful, fungal nails rarely clear on their own and can gradually worsen without treatment.
I chose the DEKA Motus AY — a Medical Grade 4 laser.
No rushed appointments, just consistent, personal care.
I’ve created a space that’s calm, welcoming, and pressure‑free.
Patient safety at the heart of everything I do.
Fungal Nail Treatment can feel like a big step, so I’ve put together clear, honest answers to the questions I am asked most often in clinic. My goal is to help you feel informed, confident, and completely at ease.
The Motus AY uses a 1064nm Nd:YAG wavelength, which penetrates safely through the nail plate to heat and destroy the fungal cells (dermatophytes) responsible for the infection.
Why this laser works so well:
The laser creates an environment where the fungus cannot survive, allowing the nail to grow out clearer and healthier over the following months.
Your appointment includes:
Most clients describe the sensation as warm but very tolerable. There is no downtime, and you can return to normal activities immediately.
A warm sensation and some mild discomfort are felt during the treatment. However, we can take it as slow as you like and can pause anytime.
Fungal nail infections are persistent, so a course of treatments is recommended. Most clients require:
Because nails grow slowly, visible improvement happens gradually as the healthy nail grows through.
Even if you only have an infection on one fingernail or toenail, we still treat the whole of that hand/foot.
Laser treatment is highly effective, but long‑term success also depends on preventing re‑infection. You’ll receive tailored advice, which may include:
These steps help protect your results and reduce the chance of the fungus returning.
Laser fungal nail treatment is suitable for most people, including those who cannot take oral antifungal medication. It is ideal for:
If the infection is extremely severe or the nail is heavily lifted, I will advise the best approach during your consultation.
At my clinic in Otley, I use the DEKA Motus AY, a premium medical‑grade laser trusted worldwide for its safety, precision, and results. You’ll receive:
My goal is to help you feel confident in your skin, and that includes your nails.

Every journey at Laser + Light Skin Clinic begins with a thorough consultation and patch test. This allows me to assess your skin, check for any sensitivities, and ensure the treatment is completely safe for you.
During your consultation, I will explain how the treatment works, what results to expect, and how to prepare for the best outcome. It is also a great opportunity for you to get to know me and feel confident in the process.
Once your patch test is complete, I will create a personalised treatment plan tailored to your skin type, hair type, and goals. You will have plenty of time to ask questions and discuss anything you’d like to know before starting your course.
