Overview
Overview
Laser energy is emitted to the epidermal layers of the skin in an “island-like” range across the treatment area. The precise settings of the Fotona laser allows targeting of only pre-determined areas, while the surrounding tissue cells remain intact. The ablated treatment areas encourage the body’s wound healing response to stimulate fibroblasts and activate production of new collagen, and is effective in treating many types of skin conditions.
The Fotona Erbium Resurfacing Laser involves using Er: YAG and Nd: YAG laser settings that offer adjustable treatment options for all patient skin types and concerns.

Fotona Fast Facts
- 50+ years history as the world’s leader in laser technology
- Most trusted by doctors around the world
- Established The Laser & Health Academy in partnership with world-leading clinical experts
- Recognized world-wide for innovative, award-winning laser systems.
The Fotona Erbium Laser has been clinically tested to effectively treat the following conditions:
1. Recalcitrant Melasma
The heat from Fotona’s Er: YAG laser stimulates the production of new collagen in the dermis to reduce the appearance of melasma.
2. Wrinkles And Fine Lines
An Nd:YAG beam is passed along the skin surface twice. The first pass provides a short stimulus to the skin, the second pass penetrates the tissue, conditioning the skin to form newer and younger tissue to remove wrinkles and fine lines.
3. Acne Scars
The Er: YAG laser safely and effectively provides minimal penetration depth required for light resurfacing of acne-scarred skin, helping to improve skin texture and tone.
4. Open Pores And Uneven Skin Texture
Low energy with long-pulse laser beam stimulates new collagen growth to treat uneven skin texture and open pores, allowing the skin to appear smoother and more radiant.

FAQ
Anyone with acne scars, melasma, wrinkles, open pores and uneven skin are suitable. Treatment also works for all skin types.
The Fotona Erbium Resurfacing laser is a non-invasive procedure, and patients feel little or no pain during treatment the 15-20 minute treatment. Topical numbing gel can be applied before treatment for patients with lower pain tolerance.
Immediately after treatment, the skin may appear slightly flushed. This effect will disappear after approximately 15-30 minutes.
Patients can experience immediate tightening which will settle slightly after 1-2 days. Make up can be worn immediately afterwards and normal activities can commence straight away.
To produce best results, repeated sessions are recommended to continue stimulating collagen production. Most patients see optimal results after undergoing 6 treatments once every 3-4 weeks.
Each treatment will take around 15-20 minutes.
There are no side effects, other than some redness and mild swelling around the treatment area that will subside in a few hours.
There is virtually no downtime, and any numbness around the treatment area will be gone when you step out of the treatment room.
Once acne scars have been reduced or removed, the result is permanent.
