How does it work?
Fotona tightening treatment treatment focuses on tightening the superficial layers of skin. The heat from the laser can both tighten collagen fibers and stimulate the production of new collagen within the dermis. This results in effective tightening of the skin, enhanced elasticity, and gives the skin a more youthful overall appearance.

This results in effective tightening of the skin, enhanced elasticity, and gives the skin a more youthful overall appearance.
When will I see results?
You may notice results right after your Fotona tightening treatment but results will continue to improve over the course of treatment and for a few months post treatment with new collagen production.
Maintenance sessions?

After completing the initial series of treatments, you may move to maintenance sessions. These are typically recommended every 6 to 12 months, depending on your skin type, concerns, and how your skin responds to the treatments.

Contraindications
There are certain contraindications where Fotona Vector lift treatment should be avoided or modified. These include:
1. Active Skin Infections or Inflammation: If you have an active infection (e.g., cold sores, bacterial infections) or inflammation (e.g., eczema, psoriasis), you should avoid Fotona tightening treatment as it may worsen these conditions.
2. Pregnancy/Breastfeeding: We advise avoiding Fotona tightening treatment during pregnancy due to the lack of conclusive safety data. Hormones are also still settling down post-partum and can have an impact on your skin.
3. Tanned or Sunburned Skin: Having a tan, sunburn, or any type of skin discoloration (even from tanning products) can increase the risk of complications, as the skin is more sensitive to heat-based treatments when it’s not in its normal colour.
4. Use of Photosensitising Medications: Certain medications, such as those used for acne (e.g., Accutane) or some antibiotics (e.g., tetracyclines), can make your skin more sensitive to laser treatment, increasing the risk of burns or hyperpigmentation. You should avoid Fotona tightening treatment if you are taking these types of medications or consult your doctor for specific guidance.
5. History of/active skin Cancer or other Cancer: If you have active skin cancer or a history of it, particularly in the areas being treated, you must disclose this prior to treatment and we can discuss treatment options for you.
6.Endocrine disorders (uncontrolled Diabetes): Individuals with uncontrolled diabetes may have slower healing responses, which can make them more susceptible to side effects such as burns or scarring from Fotona tightening treatment.
7. Autoimmune Disorders or Photosensitivity Disorders: Conditions like lupus or other autoimmune disorders may make your skin more sensitive to laser treatments, which can increase the risk of adverse effects from Fotona tightening treatment.
8. Recent Chemical Peels or Laser Treatments: If you have recently undergone chemical peels or other laser treatments, your skin may be too sensitive for Fotona tightening treatment. It’s advisable to wait a few weeks (as recommended by your provider) before undergoing Fotona vector lift after such treatments.
9.Heart Disease or Pacemaker: In rare cases, people with heart conditions or a pacemaker may need to avoid Fotona tightening treatments, this can be discussed with us prior to any procedure.
10. Disease stimulated by light: this would include solar urticaria or photosensitive epilepsy. Fotona tightening treatment can trigger these conditions. It is our aim to ensure every treatment is carried out safely and adverse reactions are avoided.
11. Connective tissue disorders: People with connective tissue disorders often have skin that is more fragile, thinner, or more prone to injury. The heat generated by Fotona tightening treatment could potentially cause burns, irritation, poor healing, or other adverse effects on these sensitive skin types.
A consultation will be performed prior to any procedures ensuring all treatments are carried out safely.
