NightLase® in Jersey City, NJ

NightLase® reduces and attenuates snoring and provides an effective, non-invasive way to lessen the effects of sleep apnea.

About Nightlase
Nightlase® therapy treats parapharyngeal tissues by stimulating fibroblast cells to produce more collagen. This natural increase in collagen will improve water retention within the tissues, resulting in firmer and stiffer parapharyngeal tissues. Stiffening causes the tissues to be less apt to sag, which means less vibration while breathing (snoring) and greater air flow.
Fotona laser uses two different lasers to treat the parapharyngeal tissues. This proprietary treatment (unique to Fotona), imparts energy on a cellular level and creates change naturally. Nightlase® treatment requires no anesthetic and does not require foreign materials to be injected or placed in your body. There are no harmful side effects, and no healing period is required.
If you have been told you snore or suspect your sleep is ineffective, we encourage you to talk to us about our Nightlase® treatment. A large percentage of the population does not have sleep apnea, yet is affected by the side effects associated with snoring. Imagine waking up with a refreshing night sleep, alert and ready to tackle your day.

"I have been to a handful of dentists in the Jersey City area and this is hands down the best dentist I've been to. Jersey City Dental Spa is very hospitable, efficient, and truly cares about its patients. I've had cleanings, cavity fillings, and invisalign done here and all done very well. Looking forward to being a patient for years to come!"

"One of my fillers came off by accident, and it was extremely painful to eat or drink. The team shared the sense of urgency and managed to arrange an immediate appointment to fix my problem. I was in and out of the office in 30 mins, pain-free after the quick fix! Love you guys!!"

Nightlase® Procedure
Before Treatment
Laser therapy works best when a patient is properly hydrated. Please drink ½ of your body weight in ounces of water each day for one week prior to your appointment.
Sequence of Appointment
Initial therapy consists of three separate appointments 21 days apart. Some patients, including patients who smoke, may require a 4th appointment during initial therapy. A maintenance visit will be necessary in a single appointment 12-18 months after initial therapy. This maintenance appointment is essential to maintaining the effects of your Nightlase® treatment.
What to Expect
Two different lasers are used to stimulate your body's remodeling of the throat tissue. Treatment is rendered without anesthesia and may feel like tiny pricks that are short in duration. As the treatment progresses, this sensation decreases.
Post Treatment
The perception of a dry throat may be present in some individuals for a day. Adequate water consumption will decrease this side effect.
