Do You Have to Keep Getting Laser Treatments Forever?
It’s a question we hear often from new clients:
“If I start laser, do I have to keep doing it forever?”
It’s a valid concern — no one wants to feel locked into endless treatments.
But the truth is a lot more flexible than most people think.
Here’s what you actually need to know.
Laser Treatments Can Offer Long-Term Improvements
At Platinum Cosmetics, we use Fotona laser — a non-invasive system designed to:
Stimulate collagen production
Improve skin tone and texture
Soften fine lines and tighten laxity
Reduce pigmentation and redness
The changes it triggers in your skin — especially around collagen stimulation — are real, gradual, and can last for months or longer.
So no, it’s not a lifetime commitment. But…
Your Skin Keeps Ageing — and That’s Normal
Laser treatments don’t “freeze” the ageing process. As time goes on:
Collagen naturally declines
Environmental exposure continues
Skin renewal slows down
That’s why maintenance treatments are often recommended — not because your results disappear, but because your skin keeps changing.
Think of it like going to the gym: results build over time, and occasional upkeep keeps things on track.
What We Recommend for Most Clients
For treatments like Fotona SmoothEye or Fotona LipLase, we usually suggest:
A course of 3–6 initial sessions, spaced 3–4 weeks apart
Then maintenance every 3–6 months, depending on your skin goals
Every plan is different. Some clients pop in once a year for a refresh — others prefer more regular support as part of their skincare routine.
You’re Always in Control
We’ll never pressure you into more treatments than you need. During your consultation, we’ll outline:
What’s realistic based on your goals
How your skin is likely to respond
What kind of schedule makes sense for your lifestyle and budget
No hype. No pressure. Just honest, individualised care.
