How it works
What are NightLase™ for women?
A medical treatment using Fotona’s Erbium:YAG and Nd:YAG lasers to firm airway tissues. It targets the soft palate and uvula to reduce nighttime vibrations. Tailored to female hormonal changes (menopause, perimenopause), it improves respiratory stability without surgery, anesthesia, or downtime, under medical supervision.

FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
Why does snoring affect women?
Hormonal changes (menopause/pregnancy) and tissue laxity increase nighttime vibrations, disrupting sleep.
When will I be able to see a reduction in my snoring?
Most patients notice a reduction in sound intensity as early as the first or second session. Tissue firmness continues to improve progressively thanks to collagen stimulation throughout the protocol.
Is the procedure painful?
No, the procedure is painless and very well tolerated. No anesthesia is necessary, and the treatment is very comfortable (the sensation generally feels like a mild warmth in the throat).
Is there a recovery period?
None. The treatment is non-invasive, allowing an immediate return to your daily activities right after the session.
How many sessions are required?
A standard protocol includes three sessions spaced over approximately two months to achieve optimal and progressive results.
Does the laser treatment have side effects?
Side effects are minimal and temporary. You might feel a slight sensation of dry mouth or a minor tingling in the throat for 24 to 48 hours, which quickly dissipates with proper hydration.
Are the results of the NightLase treatment permanent?
The benefits develop gradually throughout the protocol. Results are progressive. A protocol typically includes 3 sessions over 2 months. Maintenance sessions every 9 to 12 months are recommended.
