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

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.
