One laser. Different goals.
What Is Fotona?
Fotona is an advanced laser platform designed to address a wide range of aesthetic concerns using innovative laser technology. Depending on the treatment protocol selected, Fotona can work at different depths of the skin to support skin rejuvenation, tightening, resurfacing, and more.
So, when you search for Fotona, you may come across different treatments and protocols. At Silkor, Fotona technology can be used for different aesthetic goals, including Fotona4D®, a comprehensive non-invasive facial rejuvenation treatment, as well as laser-based protocols designed to target specific concerns such as skin laxity, wrinkles, texture, pigmentation, hair loss, and other skin imperfections.
The treatment is customised to your skin, your concerns, and the results you want to achieve.
Your skin has layers. Fotona knows how to reach them.
How Does It Work?
Fotona uses complementary laser wavelengths to target different layers and structures of the skin. Its Er:YAG laser wavelength can work on the skin’s surface to support resurfacing and renewal, while the Nd:YAG wavelength can penetrate deeper into the skin to target deeper structures and stimulate thermal effects.
Depending on your selected treatment protocol, laser energy may be used to:
- Stimulate collagen production and remodelling
- Improve skin firmness and tightness
- Smooth the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles
- Improve skin texture and tone
- Address pigmentation and vascular concerns
- Support skin resurfacing and renewal
One of the most well-known Fotona protocols is Fotona4D®, which combines four complementary treatment modes—SMOOTH®, FRAC3®, PIANO®, and SupErficial™—to work across different depths of the skin for comprehensive facial rejuvenation.

Fotona4D®: Four Steps to Comprehensive Rejuvenation
Fotona4D® is a non-invasive laser treatment designed to rejuvenate the face by working at different depths of the skin. The treatment combines four complementary modes:
1. SMOOTH®
A gentle intraoral laser treatment designed to stimulate collagen and support tightening from within.
2. FRAC3®
Targets deeper imperfections and irregularities to help improve the appearance of fine lines, pigmentation, and uneven skin texture.
3. PIANO®
Uses controlled deep heating to support collagen remodelling and a firmer-looking appearance.
4. SupErficial™
A superficial laser treatment that helps refresh the skin’s surface and improve the appearance of texture and overall radiance.
Together, these four steps work across different depths of the skin to support a more comprehensive rejuvenation effect, with minimal downtime.

Different Fotona protocols are designed for different aesthetic goals. Fotona4D® focuses on comprehensive facial rejuvenation and combines four treatment modes to work at different depths of the skin. Other Fotona protocols may focus on specific concerns such as resurfacing, tightening, pigmentation, vascular concerns, or other aesthetic goals.
Fotona treatments are generally designed to be comfortable, although the sensation can vary depending on the treatment protocol and the area being treated. Your specialist will explain what to expect during your consultation.
Downtime depends on the specific Fotona treatment and settings used. Some treatments involve minimal to no downtime, while more intensive resurfacing protocols may require a longer recovery period.
The number of sessions depends on your skin concerns, treatment goals, and the specific Fotona protocol recommended for you. Your specialist will create a personalised treatment plan during your consultation.
Some patients may notice an immediate improvement in the appearance of their skin, while other results develop progressively as the skin undergoes collagen remodelling. Results and timelines vary depending on the treatment protocol and individual response. Fotona4D® results, for example, can continue to develop over the following months.
Depending on your individual needs and treatment plan, Fotona may be combined with other aesthetic treatments. Your specialist will advise you on the safest and most effective combination for your skin.
