Fractional Erbium Glass Laser
It is a non-invasive skin resurfacing treatment that refreshes and rejuvenates skin appearance. It has a significant improvement of acne scars, also removes superficial wrinkles, reverses age pigments, improves skin tone and texture.
This laser breaks up its laser beam into a grid of tiny beams that create microscopic injuries to the top layer of skin. Because only a “fraction” of the skin is treated at the time, healing is quicker, and downtime is less. The micro injuries stimulate new collagen and elastin production for skin remodeling, smoothing texture, and thickness increases.
