Erbium Laser
Erbium Laser Treatment Los Angeles, California
Reveal younger, smoother, more radiant skin with Erbium laser skin resurfacing.
An Erbium YAG laser is an advanced, near-infrared laser that can treat fine lines, wrinkles, acne scars, scars, sun damage, epidermal lesions, and more. Suitable for most skin types, Erbium laser can treat various areas, including the face, neck, chest, and hands. The ideal laser resurfacing option for clients seeking visible skin rejuvenation with gentle precision.
With a wavelength of 2940nm, Erbium lasers boast a very high water affinity. For near infrared or infrared lasers, water affinity is inversely proportional to depth of penetration. This allows for ultra-precise, “layer-by-layer” resurfacing with less thermal damage and downtime than CO2 laser treatments. The superficial depth of penetration makes treatments highly precise, which is useful for targeted treatment of delicate areas or localized areas such as acne scars or epidermal lesions. High water affinity means that Erbium laser treatments have less heat diffusion in treated tissue, which helps reduce risk of complication (such as hyperpigmentation, especially in darker skin types). Treatments can be combined with other lasers or treatments for synergistic results.
For targeted, Erbium laser resurfacing treatments, look no further than DSC. Our medical providers are highly experienced in tailoring laser treatments to your skin type to help you achieve your skin care goals. If you have mild to moderate fine lines, sun damage, or acne scars and want noticeable results with minimal recovery, book your Erbium laser treatment today!

- The presence of cutaneous disorders including seborrheic keratoses, solar lentigines, actinic keratoses, and skin cancers should be noted.
- Skin cancers must be treated adequately by other methods before any resurfacing procedure is performed.
