Resurfacing laser (Erbium Yag)
-
Erbium YAG is an ablative laser used for skin resurfacing. It precisely removes damaged outer layers of skin to improve texture, tone, and overall skin quality.
-
It is commonly used to improve fine lines, wrinkles, sun damage, acne scars, uneven texture, and age-related skin changes.
-
Erbium YAG is generally more precise and causes less thermal damage to surrounding tissue than CO2 lasers, which often means faster healing and reduced downtime in many cases.
-
Most patients are numbed with topical anesthetic before treatment. You may feel heat or a prickling sensation, but discomfort is typically manageable.
-
Downtime varies depending on treatment depth. Superficial treatments may heal in a few days, while deeper resurfacing can take 7–10+ days or longer.

Initial improvement is often seen once the skin begins healing, with continued collagen remodeling and improvement over several weeks to months.
