ERBIUM LASER TREATMENT

The Erbium laser treatment is an ablative laser that targets the outer skin layers. This treatment is ideal for targeting moderately deeper lines and wrinkles on the face, deeper acne scars, and  discoloration. 

 

The laser results in a narrower area of heating adjacent tissues compared to other laser treatments. It includes a more focused approach which is a benefit to the skin by minimal burning of the surrounding tissue. This also brings less side effects seen with laser treatments such as swelling, bruising, and redness and results in a faster recovery time.

 

Benefits of the Erbium Laser Treatment:

  •  Assists in reversing sun damage
  • Treats fine-lines, wrinkles, and hyperpigmentation
  • Requires little to no down time
  • Can be a safer laser treatment for deeper skintones

Questions

WHO IS A CANDIDATE FOR ERBIUM?

Erbium is safe for most patients. As with all cosmetic procedures, make sure to talk with an aesthetician during one of our complimentary consults about your concerns and medical history to determine if Erbium laser treatment is right for you.

HOW LONG DOES THE TREATMENT TAKE?

An Erbium treatment takes about 30 minutes and requires no numbing. Patients may experience some redness and ‘crusting’ but there is no social downtime so individuals can immediately return to their busy schedules post treatment.

WHEN WILL YOU SEE RESULTS?

You can see a youthful glow in as few as 2 days, improvements to pigmentation and elasticity in 2-4 weeks and results continuing through 6 months.

WHAT POST- CARE STEPS ARE REQUIRED?

Upon completion of the Erbium Treatment patients can expect a slightly pink coloring, with a warmth similar to a mild sunburn. Keep skin hydrated, especially the first 36 - 48 hours

WHAT SHOULD YOU EXPECT FROM ONE ERBIUM TREATMENT?

One Erbium treatment fades the skin’s browns and reds and stimulates deeper-down collagen to reduce fine lines and improve skins texture.
