Perfect Nail Solution Releases New Information on Cold Plasma as a Treatment for Toenail Infections

Perfect Nail Solution in Irwindale, California, recently released information regarding the effectiveness of cold plasma in treating toenail fungal infections.

Nail onychomycosis, or fungus infection, is typically caused by a fungus called dermatophytes, but can also be caused by yeasts and molds. According to Allen Farrar, a spokesperson at Perfect Nail Solutions, "The present variety of toenail fungus treatments span everything from over the counter medicines to natural remedies that can be either applied topically or ingested for healing. However, most of these treatments are ineffective in eradicating toenail infections completely."

A recent study has discovered that cold plasma i.e. ionized gas, the fourth state of matter first identified in 1879 by Sir William Crooke — things like lightning, or the plasma arcs the sun spews out, may be a great method of stopping toenail infection. They’re useful for things like sterilizing drinking water and decontaminating industrial surfaces and that's because they kill bacteria by destroying the bacterial cell membrane via a lethal combination of charged particles, free radicals, and UV radiation.

Conducted by researchers at the University of California, Berkeley, the study used E. coli in their experiments rather than the actual fungi responsible for infections (T. rubrum and T. mentagrophytes). They reported a significant reduction in E. coli populations following the application of cold plasma.

Exactly how long it would take to clear up an infection depends on the individual, but the timeframe remains short in comparison to the currently available treatments for this condition. The treatments would be outpatient procedures where a series of 45-minute sessions would be required to successfully implement this antibacterial remedy.

The cold plasma treatment is painless and may be effective, though chances of the infection reappearing are still present. Perfect Nail Solution has developed a unique 2 step fungal treatment for toenail infections that is made using pure essential oils.
