Erbium YAG laser treatments in Palma de Mallorca and Manacor

Procedure

Erbium laser facial rejuvenation precisely ablates the epidermis (the outermost layer of the skin) and reveals the smoother, younger-looking skin beneath.

Erbium laser skin resurfacing has also been shown to stimulate collagen production, which in turn smooths and tightens the skin.

Erbium laser resurfacing is gentler and less aggressive than other types of laser, such as CO2: it causes less discomfort, has fewer side effects and recovery is much faster.

Frequently asked questions

What is Erbium YAG laser and how does it work on the skin?

It is a facial rejuvenation treatment that precisely ablates the epidermis, the outermost layer of the skin. It removes damaged cells and reveals the smoother, younger-looking skin beneath. It also stimulates collagen production in the deeper layers. Collagen keeps the skin firm and elastic, so the skin is smoothed and tightened, and wrinkles and other irregularities are less visible.

Which areas and skin concerns does Erbium YAG laser treat?

It is used mainly on the face, but also on other areas with scars, wrinkles or other irregularities: the neck, décolletage and hands. It improves the appearance of surgical or burn scars, acne marks, fine lines, enlarged pores, flat warts and stretch marks. It is especially useful for ageing skin, as it improves texture and tone.

What does the procedure involve and how long does each session take?

It is relatively quick. First, a topical anaesthetic is applied. The laser then ablates the epidermis, removing damaged cells and stimulating collagen in the deeper layers. Each session takes 20 to 30 minutes, depending on the size and number of areas treated. Afterwards the skin may be red and slightly swollen, but this usually settles quickly.

How many sessions are needed and when are results visible?

Three sessions are generally recommended, at least one month apart. Results are visible from the first session and improve with each further session: smoother, firmer skin with fewer scars, wrinkles and irregularities. The collagen stimulation improves skin firmness and elasticity over time.
