Fotona Laser Vancouver
Award-winning laser.
The Fotona is an award winning aesthetic laser machine working with the two highest performance wavelengths — Er:Yag and ND:Yag. The ND:Yag is capable of targeting the deepest layer of the skin to target a wider range of skin concerns. The ND:Yag also targets any pigmentation and discoloration in the skin. On the other hand, Er:Yag helps with scars, enlarged pores and skin laxity to achieve a healthy, glowing skin. Such exceptional capabilities allow us to treat a number of indications, such as facial rejuvenation, facial tightening, body contouring and laser hair removal. Fotona is proven safe on all skin types.
