Whether you’re frustrated with chronic foot pain, nail fungus that won’t clear up, or slow-healing injuries, we’re here to help you explore your options. Our team takes the time to understand your situation and create a plan that fits your needs
Laser podiatry uses focused beams of light energy to treat specific tissues in the foot and ankle. These treatments are non-invasive and require no downtime. That means you can come in for a session and return to your regular activities the same day. For many patients, laser therapy helps reduce inflammation, improve circulation, promote healing, and target infections without the need for surgery or harsh medications
At Fit Feet Podiatry, we use laser treatments for several conditions. If you’re not sure whether laser care is right for you, we’ll sit down and go over everything. We believe in making sure you’re informed and comfortable before beginning any treatment
One of the most common laser treatments we perform is for fungal toenails. If your nails are thick, discolored, brittle, or hard to trim, laser therapy can help eliminate the fungus at the source without oral medication. Many of our patients come to us after trying creams and sprays that didn’t work. Laser treatment goes deeper and offers a gentle but powerful alternative
Laser therapy can reduce inflammation in the plantar fascia and stimulate healing in damaged tissues. If you’re dealing with heel pain and don’t want to rely on medication or injections, this may be a great option to explore with your heel pain specialist
Chronic tendon pain and stiffness can be hard to treat with rest alone. Laser podiatry helps improve blood flow and accelerate tissue repair, making it easier for you to recover and return to your normal activities
Laser treatment can reduce pain and swelling in arthritic joints by stimulating the body’s natural healing process. If you’ve been dealing with foot or ankle arthritis, we may be able to make your days a little more comfortable
We also use laser therapy to help diabetic patients and others with slow-healing wounds. Laser light encourages the skin to repair itself more quickly and helps prevent infections from spreading
When you come to our Brighton Beach podiatry office for laser treatment, we’ll start by examining your feet and talking through your symptoms. We want to know how long you’ve had the issue, what treatments you’ve already tried, and how it’s affecting your daily life
Once we determine that laser treatment is right for you, we’ll walk you through every step of the process. Treatments are typically quick, painless, and done right in our office. Most sessions take 15 to 30 minutes. There’s no recovery time needed and no special shoes or bandages required
Some patients notice relief after just one or two sessions, while others may need a few treatments depending on the condition. We’ll create a personalized plan and check in with you along the way to make sure you’re seeing results
We believe foot care should be personal. That’s why we take our time with each patient and never rush you out the door. We’ll explain every detail and make sure you’re confident and comfortable with your treatment

Laser podiatry procedures are cutting-edge methods of treatment that use laser wavelengths and mechanical pressure waves to promote healing noninvasively. At Fit Feet Podiatry, Dr. Stepensky offers two different types of laser procedures:
The Zimmer enPulsPro uses mechanical energy to trigger reactions in your soft tissue that have a positive effect on a wide range of orthopedic conditions. You might benefit from treatment with the Zimmer enPulsPro if you’re suffering from chronic inflammation or tendon problems such as plantar fasciitis or Achilles tendonitis.
Zimmer enPulsPro typically requires a series of four, five-minute treatment sessions spaced one week apart. The treatment boasts an 80-85% success rate and requires no downtime. Following treatment, you can return to your normal routine right away.
Fotona laser podiatry uses two specific types of laser wavelengths, Nd:YAG and Er:YAG, to treat a wide array of podiatric problems, including onychomycosis (toenail fungus), plantar warts, leg veins, corns, and calluses.
Fotona laser podiatry offers a highly versatile parameter selection, allowing Dr. Stepensky to tailor a custom treatment plan based on your individual needs. In addition, the treatment is extremely precise, requires no anesthesia, and presents no post-treatment pain.
No two people are exactly alike. Therefore, Dr. Stepensky develops custom plans for every patient. To determine the laser procedure you’ll most benefit from, Dr. Stepensky physically examines your feet, toes, and ankles, reviews your medical history, and asks you a series of questions about the symptoms you’re experiencing.
If necessary, Dr. Stepensky might also take a series of X-rays to get a better look at the bones and underlying structures in your feet. After gathering all of this information, he formulates a treatment plan that aligns with your individual needs and concerns.
No. The laser procedures that Dr. Stepensky offers are FDA-approved, safe, and well-tolerated. In addition, there’s no need for topical or injected anesthetics. Both the Zimmer enPulsPro and Fotona lasers are entirely noninvasive and pain-free. After your treatment session is over, you can return to work and other normal activities right away.
