What Is Smooth Mode?
Smooth mode is a fractionated Er:YAG laser setting for the Fotona Dynamis SP Series machine
It gently rejuvenates the surface of the skin and the inside of the mouth. Smooth mode is used to treat soft tissues inside the mouth, the superficial layers of the skin, and other treatments like vaginal rejuvenation and urinary stress incontinence treatments. Areas treated by Smooth mode laser cause localized conversion of tissue collagen to increase the production of collagen and fibroblasts within the epidermal structures. This results in the softening of wrinkles and tightening of the skin while significantly improving elasticity.

What Can Er:YAG In Smooth Mode Achieve?
What Areas Can Smooth Mode Treat?
Cosmetic Facial Toning
The Fotona proprietary laser handpiece is inserted inside the mouth with no direct contact to the walls of the mouth. The laser light emits pulses of laser to the surface of the oral cavity without damaging the surface of the skin. Treatments are comfortable and safe. Some patients may experience some heat during treatments. The practitioner treats the entire oral cavity, resulting in the immediate tightening of the nasolabial folds, mouth, and cheeks. Repeated treatments can reduce wrinkles.
Intraorally for Snoring Reduction
The specialized Fotona hand piece is inserted in the back of the mouth towards the back of the throat. Laser is delivered to the uvula and the soft palate to strengthen and increase the airway passage for easier breathing ability. Patients who snore or who have obstructive sleep apnea can significantly benefit from these treatments. A program of at least 3 treatments is required to achieve long lasting, enhanced breathing results with no discomfort or downtime.
