Erbium
Erbium Laser in Anderson
Erbium laser resurfacing is a cutting-edge skin treatment designed to rejuvenate and refresh your appearance.
Targeting the outer layers of your skin, this non-invasive procedure effectively reduces wrinkles, fine lines, and age spots, revealing smoother, more youthful skin beneath.
What Type of Laser Is the Erbium?
The Erbium laser is a type of fractional laser, which means it delivers energy in small, spaced-out pulses to create microscopic treatment zones. This allows for more precise and controlled resurfacing of the skin compared to traditional lasers.
Additionally, the Erbium laser specifically emits infrared light at a wavelength of 2940 nanometers, making it ideal for targeting water molecules in the skin’s surface layers. This results in minimal damage to surrounding tissue and a faster healing time for patients.
Moreover, the device can also be adjusted to different levels of penetration depending on the individual’s specific needs, making it a versatile treatment option for various skin concerns.
How Does It Work?
During treatment, the Erbium laser emits a highly precise beam of light that gently vaporizes damaged skin cells. In doing so, it stimulates the natural production of collagen, promoting the growth of new, healthy skin.
The result is a clearer, brighter complexion that looks revitalized and feels smooth to the touch.
What Are the Benefits of Erbium Laser Resurfacing?
There are numerous benefits to undergoing Erbium laser resurfacing, including:
1. Improved Skin Texture
By removing the damaged outer layers of skin, the Erbium laser can reveal smoother and more evenly toned skin beneath. This can help to reduce the appearance of wrinkles, fine lines, and other imperfections.
2. Stimulates Collagen Production
The heat from the Erbium laser stimulates collagen production in deeper layers of the skin. This helps to improve skin elasticity and firmness, resulting in a more youthful appearance.
3. Minimally Invasive
Compared to other laser treatments, Erbium laser resurfacing is relatively non-invasive. This means less downtime and discomfort for the patient, as well as a reduced risk of scarring or infection.
4. Versatile Application
The Erbium laser can be used on various areas of the body, including the face, neck, chest, and hands. It can also target specific concerns such as wrinkles, acne scars, and sun damage.
5. Fast Healing Time
Due to its precise targeting and minimal damage to surrounding tissue, the healing time for Erbium resurfacing is typically shorter than other laser treatments. Most patients can resume their normal activities within a few days.
What Patients Can Expect from the Procedure
During the session, a trained specialist will use a hand-held device to apply the Erbium laser to the targeted areas. You may feel a slight warming sensation, but the procedure is generally comfortable.
Post-treatment, expect some redness and minor swelling. These effects typically subside within a few days. Most patients return to their normal routines shortly after.
