Erbium 1540 Skin Resurfacing

Erbium 1540 laser skin resurfacing in Sarasota, Fl

There are two types of laser skin resurfacing: the CO2 and Erbium lasers. CO2 laser resurfacing is a popular procedure among ablative lasers, which works by mildly wounding the epidermis of the treatment area to facilitate new skin growth and improve collagen development without damaging the surrounding tissue. The intensity of the laser beams with CO2 is high, making it a more aggressive laser treatment. Erbium laser resurfacing, on the other hand, is a non ablative laser treatment that is more gentle, only removing superficial skin layers so the recovery period is quicker. Depending on the patient’s skin condition and aesthetic goals, our skilled cosmetic surgeons will recommend the laser that is more suitable for the patient to render better results.

BENEFITS OF ERBIUM 1540 LASER

Erbium laser skin resurfacing is the newest technology for patients looking to enhance their look by reducing the appearance of skin concerns like fine lines, wrinkles, and pigmentation issues caused by sun exposure. It’s safe, effective and approved by the FDA for effective treatment of fine lines and wrinkles. This treatment stimulates the production of collagen, creating a smooth and tight result.

ABLATION VS. NON-ABLATION

Choosing between ablative and non ablative lasers mainly depends on the patient’s skin tone, condition, and cosmetic goals. Patients with darker skin may find that neither ablative nor non-ablative lasers are ideal for their concerns, as they both can cause scarring and discoloration. Another factor to consider is how quick the recovery period should be or if there should be no downtime for the patient. The doctor will discuss each treatment in detail and recommend the best approach that matches the patient’s circumstances.
