Experience the power of cutting-edge technology, designed to target age spots, wrinkles, scars, and other skin concerns while promoting collagen production. Whether you’re looking to improve the skin on your face, neck, or chest, our Erbium Laser treatments offer precision and effectiveness with minimal downtime.
Erbium laser resurfacing uses an Erbium-doped Yttrium Aluminum Garnet (Er:YAG) laser to gently remove damaged skin layers, revealing a smoother and more youthful appearance. This method is highly effective in treating moderate skin issues like fine lines, wrinkles, age spots, and sun damage. Unlike other laser treatments, Erbium causes less heat damage to surrounding tissues, making recovery faster and more comfortable.
Erbium laser resurfacing is a gentle yet effective skin treatment that uses an Erbium-doped Yttrium Aluminum Garnet (Er:YAG) laser to precisely remove damaged outer layers of skin. This controlled exfoliation process stimulates the body’s natural healing mechanisms, promoting collagen production and revealing fresher, healthier skin beneath.
What makes Erbium laser particularly appealing is its gentler approach compared to other resurfacing methods. It delivers excellent results for moderate skin concerns while minimizing heat damage to surrounding tissues, resulting in faster healing times and reduced risk of complications—making it suitable for virtually all skin types.
Erbium: Moderate depth
CO2: Deeper penetration
Erbium: 5-7 days typically
CO2: 10-14 days or more
Erbium: Moderate issues
CO2: More severe concerns
Erbium: Minimal heat damage
CO2: More thermal effect
Both Erbium and CO2 lasers are excellent options for skin resurfacing, but they serve different purposes. While CO2 lasers penetrate deeper and are often recommended for severe skin concerns, they typically come with longer recovery times. In contrast, Erbium offers a gentler approach with quicker recovery, making it ideal for those looking to address moderate skin issues with less downtime.
During your consultation at Skin Works Medical Spa, our experts will evaluate your skin concerns and recommend the most appropriate laser treatment based on your specific needs, skin type, and desired recovery time.
Traditional Erbium laser resurfacing targets the entire skin surface in the treatment area. This approach is highly effective for addressing more significant skin concerns and providing dramatic improvement in a single session. It’s ideal for patients who can accommodate a slightly longer recovery period in exchange for more noticeable results.
Fractional Erbium treatments create thousands of microscopic treatment zones in the skin, leaving surrounding tissue intact. This approach stimulates collagen production and skin renewal while significantly reducing downtime. Fractional treatments are perfect for individuals seeking a balance between effective results and minimal recovery, though multiple sessions may be needed to achieve optimal outcomes.
The main differences between these two approaches are recovery time and number of treatments needed. Traditional Erbium typically requires 5-7 days of recovery but may achieve desired results in fewer sessions. Fractional Erbium usually has a shorter recovery period of 2-4 days but might require 3-5 sessions for optimal results, spaced 4-6 weeks apart.
During your consultation at Skin Works Medical Spa, our specialists will evaluate your skin condition, discuss your goals and lifestyle, and recommend the most appropriate Erbium laser approach for your unique needs. Many patients benefit from a customized treatment plan that may combine different modalities for optimal results.
Erbium laser offers a perfect balance of effectiveness and comfort. It provides significant skin improvement while causing less heat damage to surrounding tissues than other laser options. This means you’ll experience less redness, swelling, and discomfort during recovery while still achieving beautiful results.
Unlike some laser treatments that pose risks for darker skin tones, Erbium laser is generally safe for all skin types when performed by skilled practitioners. This inclusivity makes it an excellent option for the diverse clientele we serve in the South Bay area, allowing more people to benefit from advanced skin rejuvenation.
Compared to more aggressive laser treatments, Erbium laser carries a lower risk of side effects such as hyperpigmentation, scarring, and prolonged redness. This makes it a safer option for those who want significant improvement without the higher risks associated with deeper resurfacing procedures.
One of the greatest advantages of Erbium laser technology is its adjustability. Treatment parameters can be precisely tailored to your specific skin concerns, desired downtime, and recovery preferences. This versatility allows us to create truly personalized treatment plans that align with your lifestyle and aesthetic goals.

“I was hesitant about laser treatments after hearing about long recovery times, but the Erbium laser at Skin Works was amazing! I had moderate sun damage and fine lines that bothered me for years. After just one treatment, my skin texture improved dramatically, and the recovery was much easier than I expected – just 5 days of mild redness and I was back to normal!”
– Elizabeth S., Torrance
“As someone with olive skin, I was worried about hyperpigmentation from laser treatments. The team at Skin Works recommended fractional Erbium for my acne scars, and I couldn’t be happier with the results. After three sessions, my scars are significantly less noticeable, and my overall skin tone is more even. The gradual improvement with each treatment was exactly what I was looking for!”
– Michael T., Manhattan Beach
“At 62, I wanted to address years of sun damage without looking ‘overdone.’ The Erbium laser treatment at Skin Works was perfect for me. The consultation was thorough, and they customized the treatment intensity for my concerns. I’m amazed at how much younger my skin looks – the age spots are nearly gone, and my friends keep asking what my secret is! Definitely worth every penny.”
– Patricia K., Palos Verdes
We prioritize your comfort during Erbium laser treatments. A topical anesthetic is applied before the procedure to minimize discomfort. Most patients describe the sensation as a mild warmth or slight stinging during treatment. For more extensive treatments, we may offer additional pain management options. After the procedure, you may experience a sensation similar to a sunburn, which typically subsides within 24-48 hours.
Recovery after Erbium laser treatment varies depending on treatment depth and type (traditional vs. fractional). Typically, you can expect 3-7 days of redness, mild swelling, and skin flaking. The first 24-48 hours may involve more intense redness and a sensation similar to a sunburn. By days 3-4, the skin begins to peel as new skin emerges. Most patients can return to normal activities and wear makeup after 5-7 days for full treatments, or as soon as 2-3 days for fractional treatments.
The number of treatments needed depends on your skin concerns and the type of Erbium laser used. Traditional Erbium often provides significant improvement in a single session for moderate concerns. Fractional Erbium typically requires 3-5 sessions spaced 4-6 weeks apart for optimal results. During your consultation, our specialists will assess your skin and recommend a personalized treatment plan based on your specific needs and desired outcomes.
Erbium laser results can last for years with proper skincare and sun protection. The treatment stimulates collagen production, which continues for months after your procedure, with improvements visible for 1-2 years or longer. However, the natural aging process continues, and new sun damage can occur. To maintain optimal results, we recommend a consistent skincare routine with high-quality products, diligent sun protection, and periodic maintenance treatments every 1-2 years.
Erbium laser is generally considered one of the safer resurfacing options, but as with any medical procedure, there are some potential risks. These may include temporary redness, swelling, itching, and skin flaking (expected as part of the healing process). Less common risks include infection, hyperpigmentation, and scarring. At Skin Works Medical Spa, our experienced practitioners minimize these risks through proper pre-treatment assessment, customized treatment parameters, and comprehensive aftercare instructions.
