Clinical advancement in the field of aesthetics is happening at a rapid pace, and new technologies are continuously being developed and mastered. The rise in demand for non-invasive cosmetic treatments is driving clinics to search for innovative technologies and results-driven treatment solutions. Standing out at the forefront of design and innovation are Fotona lasers. With their grounding in science and their versatility and precision, there’s no surprise that Fotona Lasers are a popular choice amongst medical aesthetic clinics. Here we delve into why Fotona Lasers are quickly becoming the device of choice and what sets them apart from alternative laser devices and other aesthetic machines.
Introduction to Fotona Laser Technology
Fotona is renowned for its laser technology, backed by clinical evidence and scientific study their devices are manifestations of their meticulous approach to science. With one of the most skilled workforces in the field of Aesthetics, Fotona lasersare designed with exceptional reliability and innovative features. Known for their diversity of offerings, Fotona lasers have treatment solutions for a myriad of skin conditions and concerns including:-
- Skin Rejuvenation
- Acne & Scarring
- Rosacea
- Pigmentation
- Benign Lesions
- Vascular Lesions and Vascularities
- Hair Removal and Hair Growth
- Body Contouring, Fat Reduction, Cellulite and Stretch Marks.
When it comes to laser, no one does it better. Fotona has a range of unique modalities that have changed the game when it comes to non-invasive treatments. A prime example of this is Fotona’s SMOOTH™ mode. Fotona’s SMOOTH™ mode uses fast micro pulses of Er:YAG laser energy to bulk heat the deep layers of the skin. This results in the production and restructuring of collagen fibres without damaging the epidermal layer of the skin. This revolutionary modality has a broad range of applications for the face, lips, delicate eye area and body.
Versatility Across Treatments
A key reason why Fotona are transforming medical aesthetic clinics is the versatility of the treatments on offer. The lasers within the SP Dynamis™ range and StarWalker™ range both utilise Fotona’s unique Twinlight™ system. The Twinlight™ system enables two different complimentary laser wavelengths to be used within one device. Not only does this significantly save on space, which can be a premium in medical aesthetic clinics, but it also dramatically increases and improves the number and quality of treatments on offer. This increased versatility enables clinics to expand their treatment offerings and cater for a diverse range of patients and concerns.
Although the SP Dynamis™ and Star Walker™ devices offer a large number of treatments, you can rest assured that each treatment is effective and backed by clinical study. Clinical effectiveness is at the heart of all treatment offerings by Fotona, and as we all know great results build the patients’ trust. The reliability of treatment outcomes is what keeps patients coming back and seeking out Fotona treatments.
Enhanced Precision and Safety
Perhaps the most important consideration when choosing a device is the safety profile. All the treatments that are available within a Fotona Laser system can be customised to the patient. This means that energy levels can be personalised based on how the individual responds to the treatment. This specialised approach takes into consideration the characteristics of the skin concern such as the depth and size of the lesion/condition and the skin’s quality. A benefit of this approach is that it makes the treatment much safer and allows for all skin types to be treated.
The ability to customize treatments is one of the reasons Fotona is so popular as it enables a tailride approach to patient care. Parameters such as the spot size of the laser, the length of the pulse duration and energy levels can all be adjusted meaning that you can target the specific treatment area without damaging the surrounding skin and adjust this for different skin types.
The SP Dynamis and StarWalker devices are designed with an easy-to-navigate interface. Pre-saved treatment protocols act as a fail-safe prompt for clinicians and can help to prevent mistakes from occurring. The clever design also allows for ease of use which can speed up treatment time but not reduce on safety and efficacy and so benefit the day-to-day running of a clinic.
Real-World Applications of Fotona Laser
From the perspective of patients any treatments needs to give effective results that last and require minimal maintenance. Take the active acne treatment as an example. Fotona takes a unique approach to active acne by utilising Nd:YAG to penetrate deeply and selectively to help destroy overactive sebaceous glands. The combined usage of different pulse durations in the laser ensures that acne-causing bacteria are destroyed, inflammation is reduced and acne-fighting effects such as collagen increase, renewed skin cells and an improved skin barrier function all serve to maintain the outstanding results. This ensures that the acne is not only reduce in a treatment session but that the results are sustained. This same principle applies to all the treatments available on Fotona Devices.
Fotona laser treatments focus on treating the skin throughout its layers to optimise results. Additionally, treatments are focused on causation and cure not just providing temporary therapeutic relief, which is often the case for alternative devices.
