Erbium Glass Laser
Erbium glass laser is a non-invasive skin resurfacing treatment using Laser technology to renew, lightly resurface and rejuvenate the skin. The laser delivers precise, controlled light energy that targets water within the skin tissue, removing damaged outer layers with minimal heat to surrounding areas all the while stimulating the skin’s natural collagen and elastin production. The result is smoother, firmer, more radiant skin, with progressive improvement continuing in the weeks following treatment.
What Concerns Does It Treat
Patients who complete a course of Erbium Glass Laser can benefit from a reduction in fine lines and superficial wrinkles, improvement in uneven skin texture and sun damage, treatment for enlarged pores, fresher, healthier-looking skin, and an immediate post-treatment glow.
What To Expect
- Upon arrival to the clinic, we will apply topical anaesthetic to the treatment area to minimise any discomfort for the patient
- The treatment itself takes approximately 30 minutes
- Patients often report tighter, brighter skin after completion of one or two sessions, but best results are seen about three months after the course is finished
Discomfort Level
We use numbing cream to help ensure comfort throughout treatment. Patients can expect to feel heat in the skin but do not report feeling pain. Each patient’s experience is different, and our practitioners will always work to ensure patient comfort.
Recommend Treatment Plan
For best results we recommend a course of 3 treatments carried out 4 – 6 weeks apart.

Complimentary Treatments
