Fotona Laser Belgrade — Lifting & Rejuvenation

About

Two wavelengths, one platform

Fotona is a platform with two distinct lasers. Er:YAG (2940 nm) is absorbed in water — ideal for surface ablation (scars, fine lines). Nd:YAG (1064 nm) penetrates deeper without affecting the surface. Combined, Fotona is one of the most effective photothermal platforms on the market.

The key protocols: 4D Laser Lifting (anti-ageing), Fotona NightLase (snoring), IntimaLase (intimate rejuvenation), SmoothEye (periorbital area), FotonaSmooth (surface remodelling). Each protocol is standardised and FDA-cleared.

Fotona (Slovenia) — premium platform with CE and FDA clearance
Two lasers (Er:YAG + Nd:YAG) — maximum flexibility
Standardised protocols for different indications
4D Laser Lifting — the most popular anti-ageing protocol
Safe for skin types I—IV

FAQ

Questions and answers

The most common questions we get about this treatment.

Fotona is a platform with two wavelengths in a single device. Different goals require different depths, and you don't have to visit different clinics. Plus standardised protocols (4D, NightLase) — reproducible results every time.

Without anaesthesia — 4—6/10. With topical anaesthesia — 7—8/10 comfort. Sensation: pulsing warmth and light snaps. Short pulse durations significantly reduce discomfort.

4D Lifting — 1—3 sessions (often one is enough for first results). Acne scars — 3—5. NightLase — fixed 3 sessions. IntimaLase — 3 sessions.

Yes — beautifully. The logical order: Lumecca first (pigmentation, capillaries), then Fotona 4D (fractional remodelling). 4 weeks apart.
