A frequently asked question from practices and clients who work with FungiSmart. Many products designed to treat nail fungus focus on inhibiting or, in the case of (mostly) pharmacological treatments, killing the fungus using chemical or antimicrobial substances. FungiSmart takes a different approach. The product works with Pythium oligandrum, an organism that targets the \u2018<strong>breakdown of infected keratin and fungal structures<\/strong>.\u2019<\/p>\r\n<h4><em>\u2018As a result, the pattern may look different to what one might expect.\u2019<\/em><\/h4>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You might wonder why a nail sometimes seems to get \u201cworse\u201d at first, and why that can actually be good news. It doesn\u2019t always make sense at first, so we\u2019ll walk you through the stages of this process.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In our practice, we\u2019ve noticed an interesting pattern in the questions asked by clients who are starting to use FungiSmart. The questions take various forms, but the core issue is often the same: the nail is getting darker or becoming more brittle. Is the fungal infection actually getting worse?<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The short answer: usually not. In fact, in many cases we see exactly the outcome that is expected when the treatment works. And that calls for something that is perhaps the most important aspect of fungal treatment\u2026 knowledge, understanding and good expectation management, both for yourself and for the client.<\/p>\r\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-5798 alignleft\" src=\"https:\/\/fungismart.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/Scherm\u00adafbeelding-2026-04-01-om-12.04.36-300x284.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"88\" height=\"83\" srcset=\"https:\/\/fungismart.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/Scherm\u00adafbeelding-2026-04-01-om-12.04.36-300x284.png 300w, https:\/\/fungismart.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/Scherm\u00adafbeelding-2026-04-01-om-12.04.36-13x12.png 13w, https:\/\/fungismart.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/Scherm\u00adafbeelding-2026-04-01-om-12.04.36.png 340w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 88px) 100vw, 88px\" \/><\/p>\r\n<p>Did you know that the response to the application of FungiSmart depends on the pathogen it is fighting? Indeed, an immediate improvement in colour is observed when the pathogen is non-aggressive, whilst a darker colour or increased breakdown of layers is seen when the pathogen is aggressive. More on this later in this article! \u00a0<\/p>\r\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n<h2><span style=\"font-family: -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, 'Segoe UI', Roboto, 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, 'Noto Sans', sans-serif, 'Apple Color Emoji', 'Segoe UI Emoji', 'Segoe UI Symbol', 'Noto Color Emoji';\">Nuance and understanding<\/span><\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Once you understand what the recovery process actually looks like, the whole experience of the treatment changes. Where uncertainty or doubt might initially arise (it seems to be getting worse), a sense of recognition can then set in: this is part of the process. FungiSmart targets the cause: the fungus itself. But the nail then needs time to repair itself. And that is precisely where the key to success lies: realistic expectations, proper, expert guidance and patience. Whilst clients often hope for a rapid cosmetic improvement, practitioners sometimes see the exact opposite at first:<\/p>\r\n\r\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\r\n<li>the nail is getting darker<\/li>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<li>the nail becomes brittle<\/li>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<li>dark spots sometimes appear<\/li>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<li>old layers come away more easily<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n\r\n<p><br \/>A change of this magnitude can be a bit of a shock, as we\u2019re not used to it. But from a biological point of view, it\u2019s a logical stage in the recovery process. Change is often actually a positive sign. What if, instead of focusing on \u2018I can\u2019t really see any improvement yet\u2019, you focused on \u2018there is change\u2019, and that means things are moving forward? Your mindset and understanding can make a big difference to your confidence in the process. Many practitioners recognise the moment when they start to rethink things: <strong>\u2018Yes! Something\u2019s happening <\/strong><strong>something<\/strong><strong>\u2018!<\/strong><\/p>\r\n\r\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Is colour a reliable indicator?<\/h3>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">No. This is because nail recovery always follows the well-known biology of nail growth. And that biology has one fixed rule: nails grow slowly. Furthermore, the natural process of nail recovery is also a complex and slow one. The colour of a nail is not a reliable indicator of the presence of fungus. A nail may:<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\r\n<li>appear (barely) unchanged, whilst the infection is already stabilising<\/li>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<li>are still dark or discoloured to a yellowish hue, even though the mould has already disappeared<\/li>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<li>make the eyes look worse, even though the infected material is actually being shed<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\" \/>\r\n\r\n\r\n<div style=\"aspect-ratio:unset;\" class=\"wp-block-cover is-light is-layout-constrained wp-block-cover-is-layout-constrained\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-block-cover__image-background wp-image-36154 size-large aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.hfllaboratories.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/Scherm\u00adafbeelding-2026-04-01-om-12.22.25-1024x371.png\" alt=\"\" data-object-fit=\"cover\" \/><\/div>\r\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-family: -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, 'Segoe UI', Roboto, 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, 'Noto Sans', sans-serif, 'Apple Color Emoji', 'Segoe UI Emoji', 'Segoe UI Symbol', 'Noto Color Emoji';\">For years, treatments have mainly been assessed on the basis of cosmetic improvement, but in the case of a treatment <\/span><span style=\"font-family: -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, 'Segoe UI', Roboto, 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, 'Noto Sans', sans-serif, 'Apple Color Emoji', 'Segoe UI Emoji', 'Segoe UI Symbol', 'Noto Color Emoji';\">With products such as FungiSmart, which break down the fungus biologically and remove infected keratin, the process may look slightly different for a while.

Key points to emphasise:<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\r\n<li>Discolouration of the nail is not harmful<\/li>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<li>The dark colour will grow out or flake off<\/li>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<li>Allowing time for healthy tissue to form<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Why managing expectations is important<\/h3>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When clients focus solely on changes in colour, uncertainty can quickly arise. But when both the practitioner and the client understand that changes to the nail can be part of the process, and that discolouration does not always mean the fungus is active or that the nail needs time to recover, the whole experience of the treatment changes. What initially feels like a setback is then seen as a step towards recovery.<\/p>\r\n<h2><span style=\"font-family: -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, 'Segoe UI', Roboto, 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, 'Noto Sans', sans-serif, 'Apple Color Emoji', 'Segoe UI Emoji', 'Segoe UI Symbol', 'Noto Color Emoji';\">Why do nails sometimes get darker? Not all the time, though\u2026<\/span><\/h2>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-family: -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, 'Segoe UI', Roboto, 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, 'Noto Sans', sans-serif, 'Apple Color Emoji', 'Segoe UI Emoji', 'Segoe UI Symbol', 'Noto Color Emoji'; font-size: 16px;\">In cases of more severe or aggressive fungal infections, we regularly observe that the nail temporarily darkens after starting treatment with FungiSmart. This can have various causes: the loosening and drying out of infected keratin, the oxidation of decomposing fungal debris, the shedding of affected nail layers, or the fragmentation of old infected tissue. In other words, the process first clears away the damaged material before visible recovery can take place. What sometimes feels to the client like a \u201csetback\u201d is in reality often the beginning of stabilisation.<\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" style=\"text-align: left;\">The difference between aggressive and non-aggressive<\/h3>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\" style=\"text-align: left;\">In the fungal kingdom, we distinguish between aggressive and less aggressive fungi. Really? Yes! The more aggressive fungi have the ability, for example, to form biofilms, which makes them more resistant to mycoparasitism. There are also several fungi that produce thick-walled macroconidia.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And to make matters worse, there are actually fungi that can form both types and are therefore very aggressive, such as Trichophyton rubrum \u2013 a common fungus that causes fungal nail infections. So it\u2019s quite a complex issue\u2026<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-5803 aligncenter\" style=\"font-family: -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, 'Segoe UI', Roboto, 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, 'Noto Sans', sans-serif, 'Apple Color Emoji', 'Segoe UI Emoji', 'Segoe UI Symbol', 'Noto Color Emoji';\" src=\"https:\/\/fungismart.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/Scherm\u00adafbeelding-2026-04-01-om-12.33.41-300x292.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"269\" height=\"262\" srcset=\"https:\/\/fungismart.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/Scherm\u00adafbeelding-2026-04-01-om-12.33.41-300x292.png 300w, https:\/\/fungismart.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/Scherm\u00adafbeelding-2026-04-01-om-12.33.41-12x12.png 12w, https:\/\/fungismart.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/Scherm\u00adafbeelding-2026-04-01-om-12.33.41-600x585.png 600w, https:\/\/fungismart.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/Scherm\u00adafbeelding-2026-04-01-om-12.33.41.png 718w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 269px) 100vw, 269px\" \/> \u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The key insight for practice<\/h3>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Right, we now know that not every improvement starts with a prettier nail.
