Clinical Applications of Fotona® at CoCo Dermatology

Facial & Dermatologic Applications

Active Acne
Utilizing the Nd:YAG laser in short pulse mode, Fotona precisely targets overactive sebaceous glands, reduces inflammatory lesions, and prevents future breakouts—without the need for systemic medication.

Acne Scarring
Fractional Er:YAG laser resurfacing stimulates collagen remodeling and smooths atrophic acne scars, restoring more even texture and improving long-term skin quality.

Fine Lines & Wrinkles
Thermal laser energy triggers neocollagenesis, enhancing dermal density and elasticity, which softens fine lines and restores youthful firmness over time.

Skin Tone, Texture & Radiance
Er:YAG laser gently ablates superficial skin layers, promoting epidermal renewal while minimizing pores, balancing pigmentation, and reviving overall skin luminosity.

LipLase™ (Needle-Free Lip Enhancement)
This non-invasive treatment stimulates collagen production within the mucosa and vermilion border, resulting in naturally fuller, smoother lips—without needles, fillers, or downtime.

Body Applications

Skin Tightening (Neck, Abdomen, Arms, Thighs)
Using the PIANO® mode—Fotona's ultra-long pulse Nd:YAG modality—the laser safely heats the deeper dermis, initiating collagen contraction and neocollagenesis for visible skin tightening in areas prone to laxity.

Stretch Marks & Scars
Fractional laser therapy improves the appearance of striae and surgical scars by promoting fibroblast activity, increasing collagen/elastin production, and remodeling the dermal matrix.

Laser Hair Removal
Fotona’s long-pulse Nd:YAG penetrates deeply to safely and effectively target hair follicles, achieving long-term hair reduction. Its high melanin selectivity makes it suitable for all skin types, including darker phototypes, with reduced risk of post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation.

Hair Restoration: Enhancing Scalp and Follicle Health

Thinning Hair & Early Hair Loss
Fotona’s laser energy stimulates scalp microcirculation, increases oxygen and nutrient delivery to follicles, and improves scalp health—creating an optimal environment for hair growth.

To enhance outcomes, Fotona is often combined with regenerative therapies, such as:

• Platelet-Rich Fibrin (PRF): Autologous growth factors delivered via a fibrin matrix to stimulate dormant follicles and prolong the hair growth phase.

• Exosome Therapy (DERIVE™ or REVIVE™): Plant- or stem cell–derived nanovesicles that modulate inflammation, activate follicular stem cells, and enhance cellular signaling for hair regrowth.

These combination protocols offer a synergistic approach to treating hair thinning, improving both cosmetic density and underlying follicular health.

Fotona 4D®: Comprehensive, Non-Invasive Facial Rejuvenation

Fotona 4D® is a revolutionary, four-step laser protocol that rejuvenates the face from the inside out, providing visible lifting, volumization, and skin renewal without surgery or injectables.

Exclusively performed by Dr. Mayha Patel, who has received advanced training in Fotona 4D techniques, this treatment targets multiple facial layers using a precisely sequenced application of four unique laser modalities:

1. SmoothLiftin™ (Intraoral Tightening)
   Applied inside the oral cavity, this mode targets the nasolabial region and midface, promoting internal collagen contraction and subtle volumization for a natural “lift.”

2. FRAC3® (Subdermal Imperfections)
   A fractional, non-ablative treatment that targets deeper pigmentation, vascular irregularities, and dermal imperfections without damaging the surface.

3. PIANO® (Bulk Heating for Tightening)
   Heats tissue safely and uniformly to stimulate collagen synthesis and improve skin firmness, particularly effective for jawline definition and midface tightening.

4. SupErficial™ (Light Peel and Skin Polishing)
   A gentle cold ablation mode that refines surface texture, smooths fine lines, and enhances radiance.

The synergistic action of these steps provides a comprehensive, full-depth rejuvenation that rivals more invasive procedures—while preserving the integrity of your skin and requiring minimal recovery time.

A Holistic and Regenerative Approach to Skin & Hair Health

At CoCo Dermatology & Cosmetics, Dr. Patel’s philosophy is rooted in integrative dermatologic care—combining high-tech laser systems with advanced biologics and supportive therapies to restore tissue vitality from the inside out.

Supplementary Regenerative Treatments:

• Platelet-Rich Fibrin (PRF)
  A superior evolution of PRP, PRF delivers a slow-release matrix of growth factors, leukocytes, and stem cells to support wound healing, tissue repair, and follicular stimulation. Its biocompatibility makes it ideal for both facial rejuvenation and hair restoration.

• Exosomes (REVIVE™ Stem Cell or DERIVE™ Plant-Based Therapy)
  Exosomes are extracellular vesicles that drive cellular regeneration by enhancing communication between cells, reducing inflammation, and accelerating repair. Whether derived from plant secretory factors or stem cell lines, they significantly enhance the effects of laser treatments on both the scalp and skin.
