ERBIUM REMOVAL

Includes: cleansing of the skin, mechanical exfoliation, optional extractions, finishing products.

What it is?

  • Erbium laser resurfacing is considered an ablative laser treatment, meaning it removes the outermost layer of skin (epidermis). 

  • It's used to address various skin concerns, including:

    • Fine lines and wrinkles 

    • Acne scars 

    • Pigmentation irregularities (e.g., brown spots, freckles) 

    • Rough skin texture 

    • Skin laxity

    • The laser targets the epidermis, vaporizing the damaged skin layers. 

    • This process stimulates the production of new collagen and elastin, which are essential for skin elasticity and firmness. 

    • The Erbium laser results in a narrower area of heating of adjacent tissues compared with other laser skin-resurfacing methods. 

    • Minimally invasive 

    • Shorter recovery time compared to other ablative lasers like CO2 lasers 

    • Precise and effective 

    • Can improve skin texture and tone 

    • Face 

    • Neck 

    • Chest 

    • Hands 

    • Recovery time is generally shorter than with CO2 laser resurfacing, typically 5-7 days. 

    • During the healing process, the skin may peel and crust. 

    • Sun sensitivity is common, so sunscreen is crucial. 

    • Peeling and crusting
