A Breakthrough in Snoring and Sleep Apnea Relief
NightLase® is a revolutionary non-surgical laser treatment that reduces snoring and symptoms of mild to moderate sleep apnea by tightening tissues in the airway. At MD Laser and Aesthetics Studio, Dr. Ali Hamidi uses the Fotona Dynamis Pro laser to deliver gentle, heat-based pulses that stimulate collagen and contract the soft palate, creating more room for airflow — all without cutting, anesthesia, or downtime.
If snoring is disrupting your sleep or straining your relationship, NightLase offers a comfortable and effective alternative to CPAP machines or surgical options.
What Is NightLase?
NightLase is an FDA-cleared procedure that uses Fotona’s Er:YAG laser to gently heat and tighten the soft tissues of the oral airway, particularly the soft palate, uvula, and surrounding areas. This reduces airway obstruction during sleep and can significantly decrease snoring intensity and frequency.
The treatment is performed entirely in-office, requires no anesthesia, and is suitable for nearly all skin tones and body types.
How NightLase Works
During a NightLase treatment, Dr. Hamidi applies laser energy to the tissues in the back of the mouth. The laser creates a controlled heating effect that stimulates the natural production of collagen, leading to a tightening of the soft tissues in the airway.
This improved tissue tone helps prevent airway collapse during sleep — the common cause of snoring and some forms of sleep apnea.
