Is Fotona Laser Right for Your Skin Concerns?
If you’re researching non-invasive laser treatments in Melbourne, you’ve likely come across Fotona. Known for its precision, safety, and versatility, Fotona laser technology is one of the most advanced systems available in cosmetic skin clinics today.
At Platinum Cosmetics, we use Fotona to treat a wide range of skin concerns — from dullness and texture to skin laxity and early signs of ageing. But how do you know if it’s right for you?
Here’s what you should know before booking a consultation.
What Is Fotona Laser?
Fotona is a medical-grade laser system that offers multiple treatment modes in one platform. It uses both Er:YAG and Nd:YAG laser wavelengths to target different layers of the skin, allowing for highly customised treatments.
It’s ideal for clients looking for visible results without the downtime or risks of more invasive procedures.
You can read more about our approach on the Fotona Laser Treatments page.
What Skin Concerns Can It Help With?
Fotona is one of the most versatile laser options in our clinic. We commonly use it to treat:
• Uneven skin texture
• Fine lines and early ageing
• Skin laxity (mild sagging)
• Acne and acne scarring
• Pigmentation and sun damage
• Dull or tired-looking skin
Because we can tailor the treatment depth and mode, Fotona suits a broad range of skin types and concerns.
What Makes It Different?
Unlike traditional laser treatments that only target one issue, Fotona allows us to treat multiple layers of the skin in a single session. We can resurface the surface layer while also stimulating deeper collagen production — all while maintaining safety and comfort.
It’s part of our broader skin rejuvenation approach at Platinum Cosmetics, where we favour progressive, personalised results over aggressive treatments.
Is There Any Downtime?
Fotona can be adjusted to suit your schedule. Some clients experience mild redness or warmth after treatment, but most return to daily activities within 24 hours. For deeper resurfacing modes, we’ll provide clear aftercare instructions and a realistic recovery timeline.
We’ll always talk you through what to expect before you begin.
What Does a Course of Treatment Look Like?
Most clients benefit from a series of sessions spaced several weeks apart. During your consultation, we’ll map out your skin goals, timeline, and what your personalised plan may involve.
Fotona also pairs well with other treatments — such as skin needling or hydrating facials — depending on your skin’s needs.
