HOW ERBIUM LASER SKIN RESURFACING WORKS
During erbium laser skin resurfacing, the laser is used to precisely remove the outer layers of skin. The laser energy is absorbed by the water molecules in the skin cells, causing them to vaporize and be removed. This process also stimulates the production of collagen, a protein that gives skin its strength and elasticity. As the skin heals, new collagen is produced, resulting in smoother, firmer skin with fewer wrinkles and imperfections.
Erbium laser skin resurfacing can be done with either a fractional or ablative laser. Fractional laser resurfacing targets only a fraction of the skin at a time, leaving the surrounding skin intact. This allows for faster healing and less downtime. Ablative laser resurfacing, on the other hand, removes the entire outer layer of skin, resulting in more dramatic results but also longer recovery time. At Old City Medspa we use a fractional laser for a more comfortable experience with less downtime and very similar results.
