What Does a 4D Nonsurgical Facelift Entail?

What is a 4D nonsurgical facelift?

A 4D nonsurgical facelift is a noninvasive treatment to combat aging. Unlike a traditional surgical facelift, a 4D nonsurgical facelift relies on Fotona4D® laser treatments to stimulate collagen production and tighten your skin. 

The facelift combines four different procedures and two different laser wavelengths — NdYAG 1064nm and ErYAG 2940nm — to help you reach your aesthetic goals. This procedure works to shrink pore size, tighten skin, reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, and improve the tone and texture of your skin.

What does a 4D nonsurgical facelift entail?

A 4D facelift’s four dimensions focus on revitalizing your skin from the inside out with four different noninvasive treatments.

1D

The first step is SmoothLiftin™, which combats nasolabial folds by targeting the inside of your mouth. The laser energy works to improve the appearance of your jawline and perioral region.

2D

The next step relies on the FRAC3®  laser to improve your overall skin texture. This laser energy is delivered to all surface areas of your face — from your forehead to your chin.

3D

The third step relies on the PIANO®, a laser treatment in which the wavelength is changed to 1064nm NdYAG. During this step, the laser energy is applied in a unique brushing technique that gently heats up your skin. The combination of the laser wavelength, the heat, and the brushing technique yields firmer, tighter skin.

4D

The fourth dimension of your 4D facelift is SupErficial™, a light laser peel. This step enhances the appearance of your skin by addressing surface-level imperfections and delivers an immediate glow.

Benefits of a 4D nonsurgical facelift

You can expect to feel a warming sensation throughout your session, and there’s no downtime required. You can return to your daily routines after your nonsurgical facelift. You should notice an immediate glow and an improvement in firmness, but as collagen production continues, your results improve in the following months. 

One of the biggest perks of this nonsurgical facelift is that you don’t need to worry about the lengthy time commitment of a surgical recovery. Other benefits of the Fotona4D nonsurgical facelift include:
