Non-Surgical Skin Tightening, Lifting & Facial Rejuvenation
Fotona 4D® is an advanced non-surgical laser facelift that combines four complementary laser technologies to tighten the skin, reduce wrinkles, improve skin texture, and restore a more youthful appearance, without injections, surgery, or downtime.
At Skin Atelier Kilchberg in Zurich, we perform Fotona 4D® treatments using the award-winning Fotona laser platform to deliver comprehensive facial rejuvenation from both the inside and outside of the skin.
Unlike traditional laser treatments that focus on a single layer, Fotona 4D® works across multiple tissue depths to stimulate collagen production, improve elasticity, refine skin texture, and enhance facial contours.
The treatment is suitable for patients seeking natural-looking rejuvenation, skin tightening, wrinkle reduction, and overall facial refreshment without surgery.
What Is Fotona 4D®?
Fotona 4D® is a multi-dimensional laser rejuvenation treatment that combines four distinct laser modes into one comprehensive procedure.
Each treatment phase targets a different layer of the skin to create a synergistic lifting and rejuvenation effect.
The four treatment dimensions include:
1D – SmoothLiftin™
An intraoral laser treatment performed inside the mouth that stimulates collagen production and helps reduce nasolabial folds, perioral wrinkles, and facial volume loss from within.
2D – FRAC3®
Targets deeper skin imperfections, pigmentation irregularities, uneven skin tone, and wrinkles while stimulating tissue regeneration.
3D – PIANO®
Uses deep bulk heating to tighten the skin, stimulate collagen remodeling, and improve facial firmness.
4D – SupErficial™
Provides gentle laser resurfacing and exfoliation to improve skin texture, smoothness, and radiance.
Together, these four dimensions create a complete non-surgical facial rejuvenation treatment.

How Does Fotona 4D® Work?
Fotona 4D® works by delivering controlled laser energy into different skin layers to stimulate collagen remodeling and tissue regeneration.
The treatment helps:
