NightLase® Laser Treatment for Snoring

Snoring disrupts sleep for millions of Canadians, as well as those who share their bed with them. At Trucare Aesthetics, we offer a clinically proven, non-surgical laser treatment for snoring using the Fotona SP Dynamis laser. The treatment works by gently tightening the soft tissue of the soft palate and uvula, reducing the vibration that causes snoring. It's a quick treatment, and requires no anesthetic, medication, or downtime.

Fotona Er:YAG NightLase®

For reduced snoring

Treatment Overview

Improved sleep for you and your partner

Reduce snoring and improve sleep quality with a non-surgical laser treatment at Trucare Aesthetics in Winnipeg, a discreet in-office solution for a better night's rest.

The Fotona NightLase® protocol uses gentle Er:YAG laser energy to heat and tighten the mucosal tissue of the soft palate, uvula, and surrounding structures. As this tissue is tightened, the airway opens slightly and the vibrating laxity that produces snoring is reduced.

The treatment is performed intraorally (inside the mouth) in a quick, comfortable, walk-in/walk-out appointment. Most clients and their partners report a meaningful reduction in snoring volume and frequency after completing the recommended treatment series.

Frequently Asked Questions

Snoring occurs when air is not able to move freely through your nose and mouth during sleep. This is due to a narrowing of your airway, which causes the tissues to vibrate and make an audible sound. In extreme cases the airway can become blocked which is known as obstructive sleep apnea. Many factors can contribute to snoring such as age, nasal and sinus problems, being overweight, alcohol, smoking, medications, and sleep posture.

Snoring has a number of consequences that can impact the life of a snorer and his/her sleep partner. Sleep deprivation as a result of snoring has a negative impact on health and quality of life. Snorers can experience tiredness, morning headaches, irritability, dry mouth, and relationship difficulties. Studies have also shown a link between snoring and an increased risk of heart attack and stroke.

Most treatments for snoring attempt to keep the breathing passage open. Specially made dental appliances can be effective, but rely on daily compliance. Continuous Positive Airway Pressure (CPAP) systems are often used to help control sleep apnea and the snoring associated with it, however these devices can be very uncomfortable. There are surgical options available for correcting snoring which usually involve removal of tissue from the uvula and pharynx but these surgeries are invasive and can result in a lengthy and unconformable recovery period following the surgery.

Laser energy is used to heat the tissues of the airway causing a tightening effect which helps to keep your airway open. NightLase is performed with approximately three short treatments spaced over two months. Each treatment lasts 15 minutes and requires no anesthesia. The procedure is comfortable and you can resume your daily routine immediately afterwards. Results are often seen after the first session.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I had laser nail treatments with Jess and had such a great experience from start to finish. Jess was so friendly, kind and completely non-judgmental. She made me feel comfortable right away and honestly made the whole experience so easy.

The treatments worked very well. My nails are looking so much better and I’m really happy with the results.

I would absolutely recommend Jess to anyone considering this treatment. She’s wonderful at what she does and just a genuinely lovely person.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I got filler here this past Monday and let me tell you, I’m SO happy with everything! Mandy, Jess and team make you feel so relaxed and comfortable! This was my first time getting filler and I honestly had no idea what to expect. Mandy walked me through the entire consultation and treatment and let me take a peak at every stage. She also told me what to expect pain wise during the procedure! The clinic is very clean, professional and welcoming! Will definitely be back in the future! 💖

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. 5 stars for Mandy Desousa and her expertise!

I’m writing this three weeks post-treatment, and the results have settled perfectly as expected. Finding a clinic and RN can be trusted long-term is not easy, and I feel lucky to have found both. Mandy’s botox injection technique is outstanding, I had zero bruising after treatment, which is a clear testament to her precision and experience. Most importantly, her aesthetic vision aligns with mine where we prioritizes a natural, balanced look over anything stiff or overdone. Also, she provides excellent guidance throughout the process and truly knows how to achieve subtle, high-quality results.
