Frequently Asked Questions

How long does it take to see results from a Fotona 4D treatment?

While some tightening may be noticeable immediately, the most significant improvements develop gradually as collagen rebuilds. Patients typically see progressive changes over 2–3 months after each session.
Mild peeling and a little swelling or redness can occur as part of the skin’s renewal process, but these effects usually resolve within a few days. Most people find them mild enough to return to normal activities right away.
It’s best to wait about 24 hours before applying makeup. This allows the skin a brief recovery period, reducing the risk of irritation and helping your results develop optimally.
Keep the treated area clean and moisturised, avoid heavy sun exposure, and use a broad‑spectrum sunscreen. Gentle skincare products are recommended for the first week; your practitioner will provide specific guidance.
Most people need three to five sessions spaced a few months apart. This schedule allows the skin to heal and for new collagen to develop. Your provider will tailor the plan to your specific goals and skin condition.
Metal dental fillings are usually fine, but those with metal implants in the treated area should consult their practitioner. Some types of implants may require different settings or make you ineligible for the treatment.
Yes, Fotona 4D can complement other treatments. Many clinics pair it with fillers or neuromodulators to enhance overall results. These procedures are typically scheduled separately to give your skin adequate time to recover.
In the days leading up to your appointment, avoid tanning, sunbeds and unprotected sun exposure, as a fresh tan or sunburn can make treatment uncomfortable or unsafe. Let your practitioner know about any medications or supplements you’re taking; certain drugs that increase photosensitivity may need to be paused. On the day of your session, keep your skin clean and free of heavy cosmetics or creams, and stay well hydrated.
After a brief consultation and skin assessment, your provider will use a series of laser handpieces in a specific sequence. Each of the four modes feels slightly different—most people describe sensations ranging from gentle warmth to a light snapping or tingling. A full session usually lasts 45–60 minutes. You won’t need general anesthesia, though a topical numbing cream may be offered for comfort.
Some redness and mild swelling are normal right after treatment and typically fade within hours or days. Keep the treated skin clean and moisturised, avoid intense exercise for the first day, and protect the area with a broad‑spectrum sunscreen when outdoors. Wait about 24 hours before applying makeup or active skincare products, and follow any personalised after‑care instructions provided by your clinician.
The collagen‑boosting effects of Fotona 4D can last up to a couple of years, but they are not permanent. Maintenance sessions, typically once a year, are often recommended to prolong your results.
The intra‑oral part of the procedure addresses sagging around the mouth and jowls from the inside, stimulating collagen in areas that external treatments can’t reach. This step helps lift and tighten nasolabial folds and marionette lines for more comprehensive rejuvenation.
