One of the questions we hear most about PACT fungal nail treatment: 'Does it hurt?' 🤔
For most people, not at all. There are no needles and no tablets — you simply sit back while the gel and LED light do their work. Most patients read, scroll or chat to us through the session. The most dramatic side effect we usually see? A temporary blue tint on the nail from the gel, which typically fades within days.
It's one of the reasons PACT is popular with patients who are already managing other medications and would rather avoid adding antifungal tablets to the list.
