Fotona NightLase: A Non-Surgical Treatment for Snoring

Snoring might seem like a minor annoyance — but for many people, it disrupts sleep, affects relationships, and signals deeper health concerns like obstructive sleep apnoea. If you or your partner are struggling with snoring, Fotona NightLase offers a gentle, non-invasive solution that could significantly improve your quality of life.

At Platinum Cosmetics in Port Melbourne, NightLase is becoming an increasingly popular option for those seeking real, lasting results without the need for surgery or devices.

What is NightLase and how does it work?

NightLase is a laser treatment that targets the soft tissues of the airway — particularly the soft palate, uvula, and surrounding areas at the back of the throat. It uses Fotona’s patented Er:YAG laser technology to gently heat these tissues, stimulating collagen remodelling and causing the tissue to tighten.

The result? A wider, more open airway and reduced airway collapse during sleep — meaning less snoring and potentially better oxygen flow at night.

Who is NightLase suitable for?

NightLase may be ideal for:

• Chronic snorers (including those whose snoring disrupts their partner’s sleep)

• Clients with mild to moderate sleep apnoea who are not ready for CPAP

• Those looking for a non-surgical snoring solution

• People who want to avoid the discomfort of oral appliances or invasive procedures

It’s important to note: NightLase is not a cure for all sleep issues. A proper medical diagnosis is essential before treatment, and we always recommend clients seek sleep studies or consultation with a medical provider if they suspect sleep apnoea.

What does the treatment involve?

Each session takes around 20–30 minutes and requires no anaesthetic. Most people describe it as warm and tingly, with no pain or downtime.

A standard NightLase course involves:

• Three treatments spaced over 6–8 weeks

• Maintenance treatments every 6–12 months, depending on results and lifestyle

Most clients report noticeable improvements after the second treatment, including reduced snoring volume and better sleep quality.

How is NightLase different from surgery or mouthguards?

Unlike surgery, NightLase doesn’t involve cutting, stitches, or downtime. It’s also more comfortable and lower-maintenance than using oral appliances like mandibular advancement splints.

NightLase:

• Has no downtime

• Is needle-free and blade-free

• Stimulates the body’s natural tissue tightening process

• Can improve symptoms without affecting speech or swallowing

What results can you expect?

While individual results vary, studies have shown that NightLase can reduce snoring by up to 50–60% in many clients. For some, this means sleeping through the night for the first time in years — without waking themselves (or their partner) up.
