What is Laser Resurfacing?

Deep laser resurfacing is an advanced skin treatment that uses a precision erbium:YAG laser at 2940 nm to remove damaged outer layers of skin and stimulate new collagen. It is a full-field ablative treatment, meaning the laser treats the entire surface of the skin in the target area, not just small dots (like you would find with a C02 Laser).

We use the Sciton Joule X / Contour TRL system, a highly customizable Er:YAG platform that allows us to control the exact depth of skin removal, from very light peels to deep resurfacing for more severe ageing or scarring. This is a completely tailorable treatment designed to treat a multitude of concerns
