Q&A: What Is Fotona 4D and Who Is It For?
If you’re exploring non-surgical ways to rejuvenate your skin, chances are you’ve come across something called Fotona 4D.
But what exactly is it? And how does it differ from a regular laser treatment?
At Platinum Cosmetics, Fotona 4D is one of our most advanced laser treatments — offering multi-layer skin rejuvenation with no needles, no surgery, and minimal downtime.
Here’s what you need to know.
What Is Fotona 4D?
Fotona 4D is a four-step laser treatment that works from both the inside and outside of your face to tighten, lift and smooth the skin.
The four dimensions include:
SmoothLiftin (intraoral tightening)
The laser is applied inside the mouth to heat and stimulate collagen in the lower face, helping to lift areas like the nasolabial folds (smile lines) — similar in effect to filler, but more natural and gradual.
FRAC3
Targets deeper imperfections and uneven tone without affecting the surface — useful for pigmentation, texture and underlying redness.
PIANO
Heats the deeper layers of the skin to stimulate overall tightening and collagen production.
SupErficial
A gentle resurfacing step to improve skin texture, reduce fine lines, and give a polished glow.
Together, these steps address laxity, tone, and texture — all in one session.
Who Is It For?
Fotona 4D is ideal for:
Clients looking for non-surgical facial rejuvenation
People with mild to moderate laxity, fine lines or dullness
Those who want subtle, natural results without downtime
Anyone preparing for a major event (wedding, milestone, etc.)
It’s suitable for most skin types and can be customised based on your goals.
Is There Downtime?
Minimal. You may experience:
Warmth and mild redness for a few hours
Light flaking or dryness over the next few days (especially after the resurfacing step)
We’ll provide aftercare to keep your skin hydrated and supported.
How Many Sessions Do I Need?
You’ll notice an immediate lift and glow, but results build over time.
We typically recommend 3–4 sessions, spaced 3–4 weeks apart, with maintenance as needed. You can also pair Fotona 4D with other treatments in your skin rejuvenation plan.
