Frequently asked questions
What is Piano Laser Skin Tightening?
As we age, our skin begins to lose elasticity and we begin to see the signs of aging in our skin.The decline in our bodies’ production of collagen influences the way our skin appears over the years. Aging causes dermal structures to become weaker, and lines begin to form on the surface of the skin.
Another cause of aging in the body can be from pregnancy for women who experience extreme stretching and often are left with creppy, saggy-looking skin on their stomach. The good news is that loose skin can be tightened and remodelled with the use of Fotona’s advanced laser technology.
How do Piano Laser Skin Tightening treatments work?
Fotona laser treatments for laser tightening use a Nd:YAG under Piano Mode to slowly generate heat into the subcutaneous layers of the skin. The thermal effects of the laser to the dermis produce increased elasticity in the skin while immediately displaying signs of improvement even after just one session. Piano Mode increases activity in the cellular structures of the skin by promoting the stimulation of collagen. Increased collagen provides added support to the form and condition of the skin. The support provided by collagen generation can be seen visibly as lines and wrinkles are reduced and skin is tightened.
Piano Mode delivers laser heat to the dermis by activating a process called photo-thermolysis. This process modifies the dermal structures by increasing cellular activity in the treated areas. Selective photothermolysis targets specific areas on the body by emitting laser energy to the surface of the skin with Fotona’s proprietary hand piece in a painting motion over the treatment area. Piano Mode is absorbed into the skin by its Super Long Pulse, which delivers energy safely without ablation and induces the thermal effects of bulk heating to the treatment area.
What can be treated with Piano Laser Skin Tightening?
The most common areas of treatment are:
Face – Reduces premature aging in the skin
Neck – Reduces the appearance of sagging under the chin and prevents the formation of jowls
Décolletage – Tightens the skin
Is Fotona Laser safe?
Fotona laser treatment is a non-surgical and non-invasive procedure that uses multi-laser technology. Having been clinically proven to be safe for all skin types, Fotona laser treatments are safe, have minimal to no downtime and produce satisfactory results.
What can I expect during and after my Piano Laser Skin Tightening?
Piano Mode laser skin-tightening treatments are non-invasive and require no downtime. Patients may experience the heating of the treatment area with minimal discomfort. The thermal heating of the tissue cells induces thermally activated modification in the dermis.
This treatment requires no post treatment care, and patients can resume normal activities immediately after their procedure.
Results will gradually develop over the next 6 months after treatment based on individual collagen production. Maintenance from time to time is encouraged for longest lasting results.
How many treatments are required?
Ideally to obtain optimal results, a minimum of 4 sessions spaced 3-4 weeks apart are required.
