• Maximum treatment efficacy and speed due to Fotona’s highly versatile parameter selection
• Minimum patient discomfort

Corns and calluses

• Efficacious and safe Fotona Er:YAG tissue ablation
• Suitable for all skin types

Laser podiatry treatments can be best performed with the following Fotona laser systems:

• XP Line – Fotona’s XP line of Nd:YAG lasers is  an ideal choice if you value high-quality aesthetic treatments without compromising efficacy. At the heart of Fotona XP lasers is a high performance, non-ablative long-pulse Nd:YAG laser, which can be combined with a surgical QCW Nd:YAG laser to offer an extremely wide aesthetic treatment range.

Superior Performance

All Fotona Nd:YAG lasers are equipped with VSP (Variable Square Pulse) technology, enabling laser energy to penetrate deeply into the skin to create thermal effects without damaging the skin surface. Compared to conventional Nd:YAG technologies, Fotona’s proprietary VSP pulses create virtually instantaneous temperature increases that are limited to the targeted structures only; no unnecessary energy is deposited into the skin.
