Modern laser treatment, our surgical focus in Berlin
In laser treatment of an ingrown toenail, the ingrown nail edge is removed and the corresponding section of the nail growth zone is precisely ablated with the laser. The procedure is gentle, the wound area is small and healing is quick. The success rate is around 90%.

Precise and gentle on tissue
Only the affected part is treated; the healthy nail bed is preserved.
- ✚
Germ-reducing laser energy
The laser energy reduces germs and stops bleeding, which lowers the risk of infection.
- ⏱
Minimal downtime
Many patients return to their daily routine on the same day; closed shoes are usually possible after around 2 weeks.
- ◈
Outpatient at the practice
We carry out minor procedures as outpatient procedures at our practice, without a hospital stay.
Worried about the procedure? Audiovisual sedation with AR glasses.
At Dr. Homssi's practice, we use AR glasses (XREAL) for audiovisual sedation. During the laser treatment, you immerse yourself in a film, music or calming nature scenes and neither hear nor see what is happening.
- Audiovisual sedation: The AR glasses take you out of the treatment situation, visually and acoustically.
- Low pain and calming: Local anaesthetic and distraction noticeably reduce tension.
- For all age groups: Especially popular with patients who are anxious about treatment or have had negative experiences in the past.
- Companion welcome: You can bring someone you trust with you.

★★★★★
I came to the practice with a painful ingrown toenail and had surgery on the same day. I chose laser surgery, and healing was quick and uncomplicated. I was able to go back to work after the weekend. A year later, I am free of symptoms.

After a thorough consultation, I opted for laser treatment. The anaesthetic took effect quickly, the procedure was precise and the aftercare went smoothly. After 2.5 months, everything has healed really well.

I chose laser treatment. After a thorough consultation, I had my procedure two weeks later. After two days, I was able to resume my daily routine with relatively little discomfort.
