Fotona Smooth Eye® Benefits
Firms Crepey Under-Eye & Eyelid Skin
By stimulating collagen in the thin periorbital skin, SmoothEye helps improve mild crepiness and laxity on the upper and lower eyelid area for a firmer, more rested look.
Stimulates Your Own Collagen
The controlled heat activates fibroblasts to produce new collagen and elastin, so results build naturally in the weeks following each treatment.
Gentle, with No Needles or Downtime
A non-invasive alternative to needles or surgery — most clients experience only mild redness for a few hours and return to daily activities straight away.
How it works
How Fotona SmoothEye works
SmoothEye uses Fotona's non-ablative Er:YAG laser in SMOOTH® mode. Rather than removing or resurfacing the skin, it delivers gentle, controlled warmth to the periorbital skin — the upper and lower eyelids and crow's-feet area — keeping the surface intact. This heat triggers two responses:
- Immediate tightening – Existing collagen fibres contract for a subtle firming effect.
- Collagen renewal – Fibroblasts are stimulated to build new collagen and elastin, so skin becomes firmer and smoother over the following weeks.
Because nothing is ablated or broken, downtime is minimal. Results are gradual and build across a recommended course of treatments.

- Remove contact lenses before treatment (protective eye shields are used during the session).
- Avoid lash extensions or a lash lift for at least 1 week beforehand.
- Tell us about recent eye-area injectables (anti-wrinkle or filler) so we can plan timing.

- Avoid sun exposure and skin peels around the eyes for 2 weeks prior.
AFTERCARE
Laser Aftercare Instructions
1. Avoid Rubbing or Scratching Your Skin
Some patients may experience mild redness or tenderness after treatment. Avoid touching, rubbing, or scratching the treated area to allow your skin to heal naturally and enhance results.
2. Refrain from Applying Makeup
The skin may be more sensitive after laser treatment. Avoid applying foundation, powders, or other makeup for the first few days, as this may irritate the skin or clog pores, delaying recovery.
3. Keep Your Skin Hydrated
You may apply a cold medical or mild hydrating sheet mask starting the first evening (at least 4 hours post-treatment). Use it nightly for one week to accelerate soothing and recovery.
4. Gently Cleanse Your Skin
Use cool or lukewarm water with a gentle, oil-free cleanser. Avoid exfoliants, scrubs, or vigorous washing to support the healing process and enhance laser results.
5. First Week – What to Avoid
• Avoid exfoliation or chemical peels (including AHAs, BHAs, or Retinol).
• Avoid other aesthetic treatments such as laser or RF.
• Do not use harsh or active skincare products.
6. First 72 Hours – What to Avoid
• No alcohol consumption.
• Avoid swimming, hot showers, saunas, or steam rooms.
• Avoid strenuous exercise or any activity that causes heavy sweating.
• Pause the use of Vitamin C skincare products.
7. Don’t Skip Sun Protection
Avoid direct sun exposure and apply SPF 30+ sunscreen daily. UV rays can increase the risk of skin damage and affect your treatment results.

FAQs
Many clients experience a noticeable improvement immediately after their Fotona Smooth Eye treatment. These results will continue to improve as new collagen forms in the following months. Results may vary from patient to patient.
Smooth Eye is ideal for early to moderate signs of ageing around the eyes — crow's feet, fine lines and crepey or mildly lax eyelid and under-eye skin. It's a skin-quality treatment, not a substitute for surgery: significant excess eyelid skin or true under-eye fat bags are better assessed for a surgical opinion, and we'll always advise you honestly at your consultation.
The number of sessions required will depend on your skin condition and how your body responds to the treatment. In most cases, patients require three treatments spaced about four weeks apart. We recommend following this with annual follow-up treatments to maintain results.
To ensure your comfort, the eye area will first be cleansed and a topical numbing cream will be applied around the eyes. Eye shields will be used to protect your eyes from the laser energy. During your treatment, the outer eyelids, crow's feet and undereye areas will be treated.
There is no downtime required after Fotona Smooth Eye. You will be able to return immediately to your daily activities following your treatment. Some patients may experience some slight redness or swelling - however, this is normal and should resolve within a few days. It is important to be diligent with your sunscreen following this treatment to maximise the treatment results.
