- Do not wear contact lenses if you are having your eyelids treated.

- You may feel burning or discomfort during and after the procedure. This will resolve spontaneously.
- The treated skin will feel tighter than normal and may be slightly red if your skin is sensitive.

- Fotona4D® = 4 Dimensions = 4 Steps
- Fotona4D® uses 4 dimensions of rejuvenation to tighten the skin from the inside out.
- 1D Step 1: SmoothLiftin™ Fotona4D® starts inside the mouth, where laser energy is used to immediately kick start the tightening process around the jawline and perioral region. This step will also reduce expression lines like the nasolabial folds and wrinkles, much like a filler, but naturally.
- 2D Step 2: FRAC3® Next, to complement the intraoral treatment, deeper imperfections (like deep lines) and pigments are precisely targeted to restore a youthful texture and more uniform overall complexion.
- 3D Step 3: PIANO® In step three, a brushing technique is used to safely and rapidly apply heating to create an overall tightening effect, resulting in more firm and lifted skin.
- 4D Step 4: SupErficial™ Lastly, a light laser peel is done to improve the appearance of the skin and address surface-level imperfections. You’ll immediately notice that your skin looks refreshed, tighter, and you will enjoy a youthful glow!
