FotoFacial

Treatment of skin redness, brown spots and sun damage.

Cutera's Foto Facial Skin Therapy is an innovative way to quickly, safely and comfortably remove sun and age spots from your face, chest, arms, and hands, without gel or topical anesthetics.  The signs of sun damage will flake off after one or two treatments, leaving clear, younger looking skin.  



 

The Foto Facial difference.

Comfort.  We have created a pulsed light system that is exceptionally effective at treating pigment at a much more comfortable energy level.  There is no need to apply topical anesthetic or gel beforehand, and you can realize superior results in just one or two treatments.

 
What areas can be treated?

Virtually any part of your body with sun and age spots or freckles can be safely treated.  The face, chest, shoulders, and arms are the most popular areas for treatment because they have typically had the most sun exposure. Both discrete spots and skin densely covered with freckles respond well to treatment.

 
  What does the treatment do?

The visible light delivered by the Foto Facial procedure is selectively absorbed by the pigmented spots on your skin.  It's the heating of the pigmented cells that causes the therapeutic effect.

 
Is it true that I'll need to arrive an hour early to apply a numbing cream?

No.  Unlike other systems, the Foto Facial treatment requires no topical anesthetic or gels before treatment.  Gel is messy, time consuming, and uncomfortable.  Foto Facial therapy is the next generation in pulsed light treatments.  No gel!

 
What do treatments feel like?

When the hand piece is placed on your skin, it will feel cool and comfortable.  When the pulse of light is delivered, you may feel a mild, brief pinching sensation.

 

How long will the treatment take?

The actual treatment will only take a few minutes.  And, since there is no need to apply gel or any topical anesthetic, your total appointment time can easily fit into your lunch hour.

 
What happens after the treatment?  Are there any side effects?

Immediately following the treatment, the spots may start to darken.  You may notice a slight reddening of the surrounding skin.  This typically subsides within a couple of hours. Over the course of the next one to three weeks, darkened spots will fade and flake off.  Consult with your medical professional for complete information on the benefits and risks of treatment.

 
Will the spots reappear over time?

No.  New spots may appear.  These too can be removed.  Remember to liberally apply sunscreen when outdoors to minimize sun damage and the appearance of new spots.

 
Can all of my spots be treated this way?

Spots formed by sun exposure can effectively be treated with the Foto Facial procedure.  There are, however, other types of pigmented lesions, such as birthmarks and moles.  Consult with your medical professional to identify the spots mostly likely to respond well to Foto Facial Skin Therapy.

 
When will I see results?

Most clients find the majority of their treated spots have shown significant improvement within two to three weeks of treatment.  However, your final result may not be apparent for a month or more.
