fotona Laser Hair removal

Fotona is a world leader in cutting-edge laser technology, so you can trust you're getting only the best. We're one of the few laser clinics across the Greater Toronto Area to offer Fotona laser services, including Fotona FRAC3 laser hair removal!

Most lasers aren't the most effective when it comes to hair removal with darker skin types, as they work best for those with dark hair and fair skin. However, the Fotona SP Dynamis utilizes Nd:YAG laser energy, which allows it to provide effective laser hair reduction on all skin types.

The Fotona system offers superior laser hair removal technology that gives you the results you're looking for while being largely pain-free — the best of both worlds.  State of the art FRAC3 technology provides  you with the results you deserve quicker. Generally, our clients see a 15-20% reduction in hair growth with each session, depending on individual hair growth patterns and body chemistry.

You can expect a great experience and significant results with our experienced technicians and this high-quality laser system!

Fotona’s Nd: YAG laser energy is absorbed selectively by the hair bulb and hair matrix, thus destroying the hair follicle. The FRAC3® pulse produces a three-dimensional fractional pattern within the epidermis and dermis, with energy being absorbed predominantly at the sites of small skin imperfections before heat is transferred to the surrounding non-target structures. Laser parameters can be adjusted quickly and easily according to your skin type, hair thickness, hair colour as well as depth of hair follicles. Follicles treated in the anagen phase should fall out in approximately 2-3 weeks. The treatment schedule will depend on each individual’s hair growth cycle.

One of the challenges when performing laser hair removal is the relatively low absorption of laser light in the treated hair, especially when the hair is blond and/or the skin is dark. Using the Avalanche FRAC3® procedure, low energy FRAC3® laser pulses are delivered to the same skin area several times during the same session, causing a gradual increase in absorption of the laser energy in the hair. This leads to effective hair removal even at lower laser parameters than those required when single-pass hair removal is performed, making the treatment much more comfortable, often eliminating the need for cooling.

The Fotona Dynamis provides the optimal pulse profile, speed and power for quick and efficient permanent laser hair removal using super-short FRAC3® pulses as well as standard long pulses. To treat large body areas of various shapes, SOE (Scanner Optimized Efficacy) technology is used to quickly fill the entire treatment area with uniform energy at high laser pulse power densities, providing fast, precise, consistent and comfortable FRAC3® laser treatments. The result is a safer, uniform laser treatment without hot spots or energy loss.
