Precision Resurfacing. Controlled Depth.
Youthology uses 2940-nm Erbium technology through the Rohrer Spectrum for precise ablative resurfacing. Erbium targets water in the superficial skin layers, allowing controlled resurfacing with less surrounding thermal injury than traditional CO₂ resurfacing.
What It Addresses
Erbium resurfacing is designed to address visible surface concerns while allowing treatment depth to be customized to your skin and goals.

Sun protection is essential during the healing period.
Frequently Asked Questions
How much downtime should I expect?
Downtime varies with treatment depth — lighter settings involve a few days of redness and peeling, while deeper resurfacing may require about a week.
Is this the same as a chemical peel?
No — Erbium resurfacing uses laser energy to target water in the skin's superficial layers, offering more controlled, precise depth than a chemical peel.
