Looking to improve upon the original Fotona4D protocol that was introduced in 2017 and tackle this issue, the doctors at SL Aesthetic Clinic developed the Fotona5D Laser Lift this year. Dr Gabriel Wong, medical director of SL Aesthetic Clinic, shared: “After having done many Fotona4D treatments, we noticed that many patients have issues with age-related skin laxity near the frontal hairline and back of the neck, which in turn affects how other areas look."

Treatments such as Thermage, Ultherapy, HIFU (high-intensity focused ultrasound) and Fotona4D are preferred because they are not as scary as the prospect of undergoing facelift surgery, or receiving anti-ageing injectables such as Botox and fillers.
