Fotona 4D is an innovative non-surgical facelift procedure that results in a rejuvenated and natural appearance. It is a laser procedure that allows us to treat the signs of aging in the entire area of the face in a non-invasive way and with cutting-edge technology. It is, therefore, the ideal treatment for those who want to avoid classic procedures such as fillers (hyaluronic acid and botox, for example) or more invasive procedures such as a surgical facelift. Get a better understanding of how the treatment works in this article!

Fotona 4D emits different laser wavelengths, which allows us to treat the skin structure in the deepest, middle and superficial layers. In this way, Fotona’s 4D laser treatment promotes a more complete approach, which includes everything from collagen recovery to wrinkle reduction and skin restructuring, to the treatment of blemishes and imperfections.

The main advantages of the Fotona 4D non-invasive facelift are:

  • Combat sagging and wrinkles from the face to the neck;
  • Improve facial contour and tone;
  • Stimulate the production of collagen in the skin;
  • Rejuvenate and prevent the signs of aging on the skin;
  • Does not use fillers and botox;
  • Treat the skin from the inside out;
  • Reduce blemishes and brighten the skin;
  • Requires little recovery time;
  • It does not resort to surgeries, needles and anesthesia.
Treatment - Fotona 4D

Fotona 4D is performed in 4 different steps. Each works on a different aspect and depth of the skin, in order to provide a complete and effective rejuvenating treatment. The steps are:

 

Step 1: The treatment begins with SmoothLiftin, where laser energy is used to initiate the tensioning process around the jawline and perioral region. This step also works on some expression lines, such as the folds and wrinkles of the Chinese mustache.

Step 2: The second step is FRAC3, which has the function of complementing the previous phase. This phase works on imperfections and deeper wrinkles. It also treats pigments and texture to restore the skin’s youthful appearance.

Step 3: In step three, PIANO is used, which is a scanner technique. This technique is used to apply heat to the skin to create a general tightening effect, resulting in firmer skin and a total face lift.

Step 4: Finally, the Superficial is performed, which works like a light laser peeling. It is made to improve the appearance of the skin and resolve imperfections at the surface level. It is this stage that promotes a fresh, firmer and glowing skin effect.

Common questions

The cost of the procedure depends on each case, taking into account several factors such as age and skin condition. For this reason, the ideal thing is to make an appointment for an evaluation so that a personalized treatment plan and budget can be defined.

A few days after application, you can already notice differences in skin quality. However, the final and most visible results occur after three months.

From the age of 30, the body's cell renewal process becomes slower, which is the ideal time to start preventive treatments. Therefore, Fotona can already be performed at this age.

All people react differently. However, a gradual warming sensation is common - and after a few minutes you may feel some warmer spots in the treated area -, which disappears very quickly.

No, the treatment is a non-surgical and non-invasive procedure. Therefore, patients do not require a recovery period.
