Frequently Asked Questions

Get answers to common questions about Fotona SmoothEye.

Fotona SmoothEye uses gentle, dual-wavelength laser pulses to heat superficial and deeper periocular tissues, stimulating collagen and elastin remodeling. Treatments firm skin, reduce fine lines, and lift lids without incisions, performed with ocular protection and by trained clinicians.

Most clients report mild warmth and light snapping sensations during the procedure. Topical anesthetic or cooling can be used for comfort. Post-treatment, minimal redness or swelling may occur but typically resolves within a few days, allowing quick return to normal activities.

Most clients benefit from a series of 2-4 sessions spaced 4-6 weeks apart, with progressive improvement as collagen remodels. A personalized plan will be recommended at consultation based on skin laxity, desired results, and medical history.

Downtime is minimal: expect mild redness, swelling, or tightness for 24-72 hours. Most clients resume regular activities immediately, avoiding intense sun and makeup for a few days. Full collagen remodeling continues for weeks to months after treatment.

Ideal candidates are adults with mild-to-moderate eyelid laxity, fine lines, or under-eye bags seeking non-surgical improvement. Those with certain eye conditions or recent ocular surgery should consult our provider to determine safety and suitability.

Results are long-lasting but not permanent; collagen remodeling provides improvement for 12-24 months depending on age, skin quality, and lifestyle. Maintenance sessions yearly or as recommended can help sustain lifting and smoothing effects.
