Advanced Ablative Skin Resurfacing
Erbium YAG laser resurfacing is our most advanced and corrective skin resurfacing treatment, designed for clients seeking significant improvement in skin texture, advanced aging and sun damage, tone & deep acne scarring.
At Skin Co Aesthetics, we use the Alma Harmony XL Pixel 2940 nm Erbium YAG laser, a gold-standard ablative technology that precisely removes damaged skin at a controlled depth while stimulating deep collagen regeneration. This allows for powerful skin renewal with a level of precision that protects surrounding tissue and supports optimal healing.
Beyond cosmetic rejuvenation, Erbium:YAG resurfacing is also used to treat specific skin irregularities, including keratoses, benign textural lesions, and periorbital concerns such as syringomas around the eyes, where accuracy and controlled ablation are essential.
Treatment depth, intensity, and recovery time are fully customized based on your skin condition, goals, and tolerance for downtime.
Erbium:YAG resurfacing is ideal for clients who understand that meaningful skin transformation requires commitment, expert planning, and proper recovery.
However, For clients who have already tried non-ablative therapies or lighter resurfacing treatments but are ready for a more advanced level of correction, ablative fractional resurfacing offers a powerful next step. By precisely removing damaged surface layers and stimulating robust collagen remodeling, many experience significant, visible improvement in texture, scarring, and overall skin quality even after a single session.

FAQ
Is there any downtime?
Yes. Downtime varies depending on the depth and intensity of treatment performed. Most clients experience redness, swelling, and visible skin shedding or crusting as the skin heals. Deeper treatments require longer recovery, while lighter ablative passes heal more quickly. Your provider will guide you through expected downtime based on your individualized treatment plan.
When will I notice results?
Initial improvements are often visible once the skin has healed, typically within 1 to 3 weeks.
Collagen remodeling continues for several months following treatment, with progressive improvements in skin texture, tone, and firmness over time.
How many treatments will I need?
Most clients see significant improvement in 2–4 treatments, depending on their skin concern and the intensity of treatment. More aggressive treatments typically require fewer sessions but involve more downtime, while lighter treatments may require additional sessions to achieve the desired result.
Who is this treatment best suited for?
Ablative laser resurfacing is suitable for a wide range of skin concerns and ages.
While it is often chosen for advanced correction such as deep wrinkles, scarring, or significant texture irregularities, it can also be performed at lighter depths for younger individuals seeking early intervention, skin refinement, or preventative collagen stimulation.
Treatment depth is fully customized based on skin condition, goals, and tolerance for downtime.
