Fotona Laser: what is the price per session?

The price of an aesthetic procedure with the Fotona Laser varies considerably, as it depends on the area being treated, the patient's specific goals, and the number of sessions needed to achieve the desired result. During the initial consultation, the specialists at Atelier do Sorriso carry out a personalised assessment to provide an accurate cost estimate for each treatment.

Is Fotona Laser treatment painful?

Fotona Laser treatment is quick, generally well tolerated, and virtually painless in most protocols. It does not usually require significant downtime.

Can the Fotona Laser be combined with other aesthetic treatments?

Yes. Fotona4D® is a non-surgical, non-invasive facelift alternative suitable for different age groups. For younger people, it can have a preventive effect by strengthening collagen reserves and facial contours. For older people, it can provide a lifting effect without surgery. As it does not add volume, it may be combined, when indicated, with other aesthetic procedures, such as MD Codes.

What is the recovery period after Fotona Laser treatment?

The Fotona Laser does not require a long period of downtime, as is the case with some conventional procedures. After each session, it is usually possible to resume your regular routine, while following the recommended aftercare instructions.

How long does a Fotona Laser session last?

Protocols usually include 3 to 5 laser treatment sessions. Each session may last between 15 minutes and 1 hour, depending on the procedure performed and the area being treated.

Does the Fotona Laser deliver good results?

Yes. Fotona combines two laser types, Erbium and Neodymium, helping to stimulate skin rejuvenation and remodelling at different depths. This combination works effectively on skin laxity, skin quality, and facial contours.

Can children be treated with the Fotona Laser?

Yes. During childhood and adolescence, certain skin tissue concerns may benefit from laser light treatment. The Fotona Laser may be used in children when there is a clinical indication and an appropriate professional assessment.

Can oncology patients be treated with the Fotona Laser?

Yes, in clinically indicated situations. For example, the Fotona Laser may help reduce certain side effects associated with cancer treatments, such as specific changes caused by breast cancer treatment. Its use must always be assessed and monitored by the healthcare professionals responsible.

What care is required after a Fotona Laser session?

During the first 24 to 48 hours after the session, it is normal to experience some redness and a sensation of warmth in the treated area. Ice or cold compresses may be applied. The skin may also become drier and show slight flaking, which usually disappears naturally within the first few days. You should avoid sun exposure and follow all recommendations given by the doctor or professional responsible for the treatment.

In just one session, this innovative laser treatment comprehensively addresses anti-ageing across four layers of the face: targeting the deepest, middle and superficial structures of the skin, as well as imperfections and outer layers.

II. Fotona Smooth Eye: to improve the eye area

Goodbye droopy eyelids and crow’s feet! With the Smooth Eye laser treatment – a Fotona exclusive for the eyes – we can tone the periocular area and improve elasticity, combating sagging and ageing skin, stimulating the eyelids and the area around the eyes without any discomfort.

How does Fotona Smooth Eye work?

Smooth Eye® is a laser treatment for the eye area that tones the periocular region, using beams of light to reduce the appearance of wrinkles, firm the skin and lift sagging contours. During the Smooth Eye process, the deeper layers of the skin are heated in order to contract collagen and stimulate fibroblast activity, which in turn promotes firmer, more elastic and smoother skin. The appearance of wrinkles and sagging is also minimised with the Fotona laser… without pain, needles or any discomfort!

Benefits of Fotona Smooth Eye

Improved elasticity of the skin around the eyes.
Increased volume.
Significant reduction in wrinkles.
Skin toning.

How does Fotona Liplase work?

The Liplase™ treatment uses laser light beams of different wavelengths to stimulate collagen renewal, reaching the deeper skin tissues and producing minimal thermal effect on the surface of the lip skin. Unlike injectable and invasive fillers, Liplase provides an immediate, safe and completely natural-looking response: in no time, lips gain volume and balance!

Benefits of Fotona Liplase

Fuller lips.
Smoother lips.
Rosier lips.

IV. Fotona Technology for Vascular Lesions

The removal of telangiectasias may not mean much to you, but what about the elimination of vascular lesions? Let’s forget the technical term and focus on Fotona technology for the immediate removal of unsightly blood vessels, such as hemangiomas, vascular malformations, port-wine stains, telangiectasias, venous lakes, and angiomas.

With the Fotona Nd:YAG laser, which penetrates deeply into the skin while remaining completely safe, you can benefit from a fast, safe, and effective treatment for vascular lesions.

How does Fotona technology for vascular lesions work?

The removal of telangiectasias using Fotona technology allows laser energy to penetrate deeply. It is absorbed by the blood in the vein and converted into heat, destroying the vein walls without damaging the surface of the skin, enabling the immediate removal of unsightly blood vessels. Nd:YAG light also targets the underlying vascular supply system, ensuring long-term treatment effectiveness.

Benefits of Fotona technology for telangiectasia removal

Removal of various types of vascular lesions.
Significant reduction of lesions.

V. Fotona Laser for removing dark spots, melasma and benign lesions

Are you looking for a quick, suture-free treatment to eliminate melasma, benign lesions and skin spots?

You are in the right place! The Fotona Laser, used right here at Atelier do Sorriso, is a fast, effective and safe tool for removing benign pigmented lesions, age spots, moles, freckles, sunspots, melasma, seborrheic and actinic keratoses… and even unwanted tattoos!

How does Fotona work to remove melasma, benign lesions and skin spots?

Fotona laser waves promote gentle, controlled ablation or removal of the epidermis and superficial dermis in order to eliminate benign yet unsightly pigmented lesions.
Without needles or anesthesia, this quick and painless treatment targets the brown pigment, or melanin, present in the skin, causing it to absorb laser energy and break down into much smaller particles, which are then eliminated through the body’s natural processes.

Benefits of Fotona for pigmentation removal

Removal of melasma, benign lesions, spots and moles.
Improved skin tone and texture.
Long-lasting results.
Ideal for all skin types.
