NightLase

Fotona’s NightLase® therapy is a non-invasive, patient-friendly laser treatment for improving the quality of a patient’s sleep. NightLase® reduces the effects of sleep apnea and decreases the amplitude of snoring by means of a gentle, laser-induced tightening effect caused by the contraction of collagen in the oral mucosa tissue.

How does it work?

NightLase uses gentle laser technology to heat sections of tissue at the back of the throat. This induces the contraction of collagen in the oral mucosal tissue of the airways, which leads to a reduction in the size of the oral apparatus, opening up the airways and reducing the risk of air blockage. The NightLase therapy is typically done in three 20-minute sessions spread over a period of 6 weeks. In most cases, results are observed almost immediately and can last for up to a year.
