What to Expect
How We Do It
Consultation: We assess your skin’s needs to customize the treatment. The treatment begins with a thorough skin assessment to customize the laser settings based on your skin type and concerns. Then cleaning and preparing the skin for the treatment. In every application, a topical numbing agent is applied to reduce discomfort. Using the Fotona laser, we deliver controlled pulses to gently remove damaged skin layers, targeting areas of uneven texture, fine lines, and scars. The laser stimulates collagen production, promoting a firmer, smoother, and more youthful complexion. The session typically lasts 30–60 minutes, and we finish with a soothing serum to calm the skin, enhancing post-treatment recovery and radiance.
Side Effects
Fotona Skin Resurfacing is generally safe, but mild side effects can occur. These may include redness, slight swelling, or a sensation similar to a mild sunburn, typically lasting a few hours to a few days. Some clients may experience mild flaking or peeling as the skin regenerates. For deeper treatments, redness or sensitivity may last up to a week. Following post-care instructions helps minimize side effects and supports smooth recovery.
Time to Full Effect
You’ll notice initial improvements in skin texture and radiance within a few days post-treatment. Full effects, such as smoother skin, reduced fine lines, and even tone, typically develop over 4–6 weeks as collagen production increases and the skin fully regenerates. For best results, a series of treatments is recommended, with cumulative improvements seen after each session.
