How it works
Permanent hair reduction — the science
Fungal nail infection — medically known as onychomycosis — commonly affects the toenails, though fingernails can also be affected. Thickened, discoloured or crumbling toenails can be difficult to manage and may make you feel uncomfortable wearing open shoes.
Not every damaged or discoloured nail is fungal. Similar changes can be caused by injury, psoriasis, and other nail conditions. We do not provide a medical diagnosis — testing by a pharmacist, podiatrist or GP may be recommended before treatment begins.

Possible signs of a fungal nail infection
- Yellow, white or brown discolouration
- A thickened or distorted nail
- Brittle or crumbling edges
- Debris beneath the nail
- Separation from the nail bed
- More than one nail gradually becoming affected
The treatment
How does plasma fungal nail treatment work?
Fusion 8 delivers controlled plasma energy over the nail and surrounding area. Plasma technology has antimicrobial properties and is intended to help reduce fungal and microbial load while supporting a healthier environment for new nail growth.
The existing damaged nail does not instantly become clear. Improvement depends on healthy new nail growing from the base, which takes time. Toenails grow slowly, and a full new nail can take many months to grow through.
- Does not involve injections
- Does not require the nail to be surgically removed
- Does not involve oral medicationIs generally comfortable with little or no downtime
- Can be used as part of a wider nail-care programme
Your appointment
What happens at the appointment?
We assess the appearance and condition of the affected nail and discuss how long the problem has been present. The nail may need to be trimmed or professionally reduced before treatment if it is particularly thick.
Plasma energy is then applied according to the Fusion 8 protocol. You can normally return to everyday activities following your appointment.

FAQ
Fungal nail treatment — questions answered
Everything you need to know before booking your first session in Finchley.
Is plasma fungal nail treatment painful?
The treatment is non-invasive and generally well tolerated. Individual sensitivity varies, and we will explain what to expect during your consultation before proceeding.
Will the nail look clear immediately after plasma treatment?
No. The affected nail must gradually grow out and be replaced by healthier-looking nail. Toenail growth can take several months, so improvement is assessed over time rather than immediately after each session.
Is plasma fungal nail treatment a guaranteed cure?
No treatment can guarantee complete clearance of a fungal nail infection. Plasma energy is used to help reduce fungal and microbial load and support a healthier environment for nail regrowth. Results vary between individuals.
Can I have fungal nail treatment if I have diabetes?
You should obtain advice from your GP or podiatrist first because diabetes can affect circulation, sensation and wound healing. We may require medical clearance before treating clients with diabetes or significant circulatory conditions.
How many plasma sessions will I need for fungal nails?
Fungal nail concerns commonly require a course of treatments. The number and frequency depend on how many nails are affected, their thickness, how long the problem has been present, and your home-care routine. We will provide a clear plan at consultation.
