TOENAIL FUNGUS TREATMENT & INGROWN NAIL REMOVAL
EXPERT PODIATRIST, FOOT & ANKLE SURGEON IN MIDTOWN & DOWNTOWN, NYC
Fungal Nail Restoration Therapy
Toenail fungus, also called onychomycosis, can cause thickened, discolored, or brittle nails. Empire Podiatry offers safe, effective, and minimally invasive treatments to improve nail health and reduce fungal infection.
Topical and Oral Treatments
Medicated Nail Polish: Prescribed for mild to moderate infections to be applied at home
Oral Antifungal Medications: Recommended for severe or persistent infections and prescribed under professional supervision
Combining these therapies with proper foot care and hygiene improves the likelihood of successful outcomes.
Laser Therapy for Toenail Fungus
Our FDA-cleared laser therapy targets fungal organisms beneath the nail plate without harming surrounding tissue. The laser helps reduce fungal infection and supports healthier nail growth over time.
Benefits:
No oral medications or blood tests required
Minimal discomfort during treatment
No downtime. You can resume normal activities immediately
Ideal for patients who prefer non-pharmaceutical options or haven’t responded to topical treatments
Multiple sessions may be recommended depending on severity
Micro-Perforation Therapy
Micro-perforation therapy creates tiny channels in the nail plate to help topical antifungal medications penetrate more effectively. Many patients notice improvement in nail appearance within a few weeks, though full results may take several months.

Ingrown Toenail Treatment
Ingrown toenails are a common and often painful condition we treat at our Midtown and Downtown, NYC podiatry office. Many patients delay care due to concern about discomfort, but prompt treatment can help relieve pain and prevent the condition from worsening.
An ingrown toenail occurs when the edge of the nail grows into the surrounding skin, leading to redness, swelling, tenderness, and sometimes infection. This can develop from improper nail trimming, tight footwear, injury, or natural nail shape.
Safe, In-Office Ingrown Nail Treatment
Our podiatrist provides gentle, in-office treatment designed to relieve discomfort and address the underlying cause. The procedure typically involves carefully numbing the toe and removing the affected portion of the nail.
For patients with recurring ingrown toenails, a minor procedure may be performed to treat the nail root and help reduce the chance of the problem returning.
