What Is the Fotona Laser? Your Guide to This Top-Tier Treatment
Who doesn’t want rejuvenated and glowy skin? We don’t know anyone who’d say no to that (though maybe we’re biased, as a med spa). At Blue Sky Laser & Tox, one of our favorite ways to achieve a stunningly beautiful complexion is with the Fotona laser.
This revolutionary technology helps smooth out fine lines, reduce wrinkles, and even out your skin tone. Both effective and minimally invasive, Fotona is a fantastic choice for anyone looking to add a youthful boost to their complexion.
But what exactly is the Fotona laser, and why is it gaining so much attention, both in our office and within the aesthetic world? Let’s take a closer look at the technology behind Fotona–and how it can help you achieve your best-looking skin yet.
What the Heck Is a Fotona Laser?
Very good question. Essentially, this is an advanced laser that comes with a variety of settings your aesthetician can use to address a variety of skin concerns. Need help with skin resurfacing and rejuvenation? Fotona’s got you covered. Want to get rid of acne, pigmentation, or spider veins? Fotona is also the laser for you. This multi-application platform makes it a go-to option for both patients and laser treatment providers alike. It can be used on your face, neck, and/or hands!
Okay, So How Does It Work?
Let’s break this down! The Fotona laser works hard to deliver precise but gentle laser energy to your skin's surface. Once the laser focuses on your skin, it stimulates collagen production and promotes natural healing processes.
We’ll also mention that your treatment is personalized to your unique needs, which you will discuss in advance with your experienced Blue Sky aesthetician. Depending on what your goals are, your aesthetician will use different modalities like Fotona 4D, Acne Laser, Fractional Laser, or Spider Vein Laser, all of which can be performed using the SP Dynamis system.
Your skin will begin to show the effects of the treatment within a few weeks, with results that continue to develop over time. Say hello to refreshed skin and a youthful glow so good, people around you can’t help but notice!
What Can a Fotona Treatment Do for Me?
Where to begin? There are many different benefits that come with the Fotona laser treatment, which is why it’s such a popular choice. Whether you have one main skin concern or several, Fotona can help! Here are some of the numerous advantages that come with Fotona:
Improves Skin Texture and Tone: The Fotona laser treatment helps smooth and even out your skin. Start looking more youthful, ASAP!
Reduces Fine Lines and Wrinkles: The laser works hard to promote collagen production, which in turn decreases the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. Thank you for your service, Fotona.
Fades Pigmentation and Scars: If you’re dealing with sunspots or acne scars, Fotona laser treatment can help fade their visibility, so you can say goodbye to all that!
Non-Invasive with Minimal Downtime: Unlike more invasive procedures, Fotona laser offers great results without the need for extensive recovery time. With Fotona, you can get back to doing all the other things you love, pronto.
What Is a Treatment Session Like?
Fotona laser treatments are simple and comfortable, and your experienced aesthetician will guide you through every step. Here’s what you can expect in your session:
Before Treatment: To prepare, be sure to avoid sun exposure so your skin is at its best before the treatment session and to minimize irritation. Our team members will also provide you with pre-treatment skincare instructions for you to follow and would love to answer any questions you may have.
During Treatment: The procedure will be performed by one of our dedicated and skilled professionals and it generally causes only mild discomfort, thanks to the application of a topical numbing cream. So no need to stress! We are also dedicated to patient education and will explain what is happening, what you can expect, and answer any questions as we go.
After Treatment: Post-treatment, there’s a chance you will experience some redness or swelling–but it shouldn’t last long! Any side effects typically subside within a few days. You should take care to protect your skin from the sun for optimal healing, but we’ll remind you about this when you’re in our office.
