Erchonia Lunula Laser
Erchonia
Hands-free cold laser for onychomycosis with zero heat.
Lunula is a low-level laser device that combines 405nm and 635nm light in a hands-free floor unit the patient simply places their feet into. Because it produces no heat, treatment is completely painless and can be delegated to staff while the clinician sees other patients. It is the natural choice for practices that want a nail-fungus service with no thermal risk and no operator time.
