Radiant, glowing skin can signal health, vitality, and self-care. But achieving that fresh look doesn’t have to come from good genes or high-end skincare. Increasingly, people are turning to advanced laser technology to help smooth scars, erase fine lines, and even out texture. Leading this treatment is the Erbium YAG laser, a powerful solution that’s rewriting the rules of modern skin resurfacing. At the very top of the line, the Dermablate® is the most powerful skin resurfacing laser available today.
What is an Erbium YAG Laser?
Emitting a 2,940 nm wavelength, the Erbium YAG laser is an incredibly effective and precise ablative device to treat wrinkles, scars, and other skin concerns. This wavelength is almost at the peak absorption level of water (max. absorption coefficient at 3,000 nm), making Er:YAG the best at ablating the outermost layers of skin without creating excessive thermal damage to surrounding tissue.
While there are other skin resurfacing lasers out there, such as CO2 lasers, they can’t outweigh the Er:YAG’s minimal downtime and lower complication risks.
Dermatologists, plastic surgeons, burn specialists, and other doctors use Erbium YAG lasers for a range of aesthetic concerns, including fine lines, deep wrinkles, pigmentation issues, scars of all kinds, and skin laxity. The Dermablate® excels in these treatments, delivering consistent and unmatched results.
Choosing the Dermablate®
The Dermablate® is the most innovative skin resurfacing laser on the market, offering impressive results that surpass its predecessor. With various enhancements, it stands out as the most advanced Er:YAG laser available.
Finding a suitable laser for wrinkles or scars is now easier than ever, thanks to the Dermablate® and its three distinct handpieces. The first handpiece, the VarioSpot, features a variable spot size ranging from 1 to 6 mm and is designed for full-field ablative treatments. It is ideal for addressing acne scars, benign pigmented lesions, and deep wrinkles.
The second handpiece, the MicroSpot, is perfect for treating the face, neck, and décolletage, with a spot size of 13×13 mm. It’s effective for general skin resurfacing, skin laxity, fine lines, benign pigmentation, and acne scars. Notably, the MicroSpot now offers a new “Hot” mode with an extended pulse duration of 1500 µs, resulting in enhanced outcomes for skin laxity.
Lastly, the DeepSpot handpiece provides a unique advantage for advanced scar revision. With a spot size of 7×7 mm, it delivers targeted and uniform treatment with the deepest penetration among the three handpieces. It effectively addresses all types of scars – including hypertrophic, atrophic, and normotrophic scars – making it a valuable addition to any professional healthcare setting. The DeepSpot features three modes (Cold, Deep, and Warm), each with predefined pulse durations and fluence values for customized scar treatments.
