Fotona's NightLase® therapy is a non-invasive,
patient-friendly laser treatment for increasing 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.
