What Is Fotona SmoothEye?

Fotona SmoothEye is a specialised Er:YAG laser protocol designed for the delicate periocular region (upper eyelids, lower eyelids and crow’s feet). By delivering controlled, non‑ablative thermal energy to the dermis, it stimulates neocollagenesis—your skin’s natural collagen renewal—leading to tighter eyelids, smoother texture and improved firmness around the eyes.

Unlike aggressive ablative lasers or surgical eyelid lifts, SmoothEye works gradually from within the skin, so you enjoy natural‑looking results and minimal downtime. It’s an excellent option for patients who want to refresh the eye area without needles or incisions.

• Targets fine lines, crepiness and mild laxity
• Designed for delicate eyelid skin
• Needle‑free, non‑surgical, minimal downtime

Key Benefits of SmoothEye

1) Non‑Surgical Eyelid Tightening

Gentle thermal energy tightens periocular tissues, reducing hooding on the upper lids and crepiness of the lower lids without cutting or sutures.

2) Smoother Fine Lines & Crow’s Feet

By stimulating collagen, SmoothEye softens fine lines and dynamic wrinkles around the corners of the eyes, giving a refreshed expression at rest and in motion.

3) Minimal Downtime

Expect mild redness or warmth that fades within hours to a day or two. Most patients return to normal routines immediately.

4) Natural, Progressive Results

Results build over several weeks as collagen remodels. You look like you—just better rested and smoother around the eyes.

5) Complements Other Laser Treatments

Combine SmoothEye with Fotona 4D for overall tightening, or LipLase for subtle lip rejuvenation to harmonise the mid‑face.

How Fotona SmoothEye Works

Fotona’s Er:YAG wavelength precisely heats the dermal layer of eyelid and periorbital skin in a non‑ablative mode. This thermal stimulus initiates collagen denaturation and contraction followed by neocollagenesis (new collagen formation). Over several weeks, the skin becomes firmer and smoother with improved elasticity.

Targeted Thermal Remodeling

The protocol applies multiple controlled passes around the upper and lower lids and crow’s feet. Parameters are calibrated to deliver effective collagen stimulation while respecting the thin, delicate eyelid skin.

Why Precision Matters

In the periocular area, precision is everything. At Blue Angel Polyclinic, our practitioners follow strict eye‑safety protocols and tailor settings to your skin type, ensuring balanced, even tightening while maintaining comfort.

Who Is a Good Candidate?

You may be a candidate for SmoothEye if you have:

• Mild to moderate eyelid laxity or under‑eye crepiness
• Fine lines and crow’s feet
• Early signs of eyelid hooding
• A desire for non‑surgical, needle‑free improvement

During your consultation, we’ll assess skin thickness, laxity, and expectations to confirm suitability or recommend alternatives such as Fotona 4D or Endolift.

The SmoothEye Treatment Journey

1) Consultation & Planning

We map your treatment area, review medical history, and take baseline photos. You’ll receive a personalised plan including session number and intervals.

2) Preparation

Eye protection is provided. The skin is cleansed; numbing is usually unnecessary due to the gentle nature of the procedure.

3) Laser Session

We deliver a series of precise passes to upper lids, lower lids and crow’s feet. Patients feel comfortable warmth or a light tingling.

4) Post‑Treatment

Mild pinkness or warmth may appear and typically settles quickly. You can resume your day, avoiding intense heat and following simple aftercare.

5) Timeline of Results

• Immediate: Subtle firmness from collagen contraction
• 2–4 weeks: Noticeable smoothing and tighter appearance
• 8–12 weeks: Peak improvement as new collagen matures

Most patients complete 3–4 sessions spaced 3–4 weeks apart, with optional maintenance every 6–12 months.

Aftercare & Safety

Aftercare is straightforward. Protect the area from strong sun, use a gentle hydrating eye cream, and avoid harsh exfoliants for several days. If you wear makeup, wait until any pinkness settles (usually the next day).

We prioritise eye safety with proper shielding and conservative, evidence‑based protocols. Your clinician will discuss any contraindications during consultation.

How SmoothEye Compares to Other Options

Surgical Blepharoplasty vs. SmoothEye

Surgery offers more dramatic lifting for advanced laxity but requires anaesthesia and downtime. SmoothEye is non‑surgical with minimal recovery—ideal for early to moderate concerns or for those not ready for surgery.

Microneedling/Peels vs. SmoothEye

Microneedling and peels improve texture but are not designed to precisely tighten eyelid tissues like SmoothEye’s targeted thermal remodelling.

Complementary Treatments

For comprehensive rejuvenation, we may pair SmoothEye with Fotona 4D (global tightening) or Endolift (deeper remodeling) depending on your goals.

Frequently Asked Questions

How many SmoothEye sessions will I need?

Most patients achieve best results with 3–4 sessions spaced 3–4 weeks apart, followed by maintenance every 6–12 months.

Does the treatment hurt?

The sensation is typically described as a comfortable, controlled warmth. Numbing is rarely required.

What about downtime?

Downtime is minimal. Expect mild redness or warmth for a few hours to 1–2 days in some cases.

When will I see results?

Some firmness can be felt immediately. Visible improvements generally develop over 2–12 weeks as new collagen forms.

Is SmoothEye safe for all skin types?

The protocol is designed with safety in mind, but a consultation is essential to evaluate skin type, medical history and suitability.

Can SmoothEye replace eyelid surgery?

For mild to moderate laxity, SmoothEye offers noticeable tightening without surgery. Advanced laxity may still require surgical blepharoplasty; we will advise honestly after assessment.
