FAQ'S
What is Erbium Laser Resurfacing?
Erbium laser resurfacing is a fractional ablative treatment that removes thin layers of damaged skin while stimulating collagen production. It’s ideal for skin rejuvenation, smoothing texture, and softening lines and scars.
What skin concerns does it treat?
It effectively addresses fine lines, deep wrinkles, sun damage, acne scarring, age spots, enlarged pores, and rough skin texture.
How is it different from CO2 laser resurfacing?
Erbium lasers are gentler and more precise, offering excellent results with significantly less downtime and risk of hyperpigmentation—especially for lighter to medium skin tones.
What should I expect during the treatment?
To provide comfort, numbing cream is applied to the treatment area. Once the laser has been used, it is used to pinpoint the exact treatment areas. It usually takes between 30 and 60 minutes to perform the procedure, depending on the size of the area.
What is downtime and recovery like?
Expect 3–7 days of downtime, during which your skin may appear red, dry, and flaky as it heals. Sun exposure should be avoided, and our post-treatment skincare plan should be followed closely to support optimal healing and reduce the risk of irritation or pigmentation changes.
How soon will I see results?
Initial results become noticeable as soon as the skin heals—usually within one week. Continually improving texture, tone, and overall rejuvenation are expected after a few weeks as collagen production increases.
Is it safe for all skin types?
Erbium laser is generally best suited for fair to medium skin tones. As part of your consultation, we’ll examine your skin type and medical history to determine whether this treatment is the most safest and most effective option for your needs.
Can I combine Erbium Laser with other treatments?
Erbium resurfacing pairs well with treatments like BBL HERO™ or microneedling depending on your skin goals. We’ll design a personalized treatment plan just for you.
How long do the results last?
If you use good skincare products and wear sun protection, your results can last for months or even years. Maintenance treatments can be scheduled annually or as needed to keep your skin looking fresh and youthful.
