precision resurfacing, visible results

This precise ablative technology reduces wrinkles, scars, sun damage, and uneven texture delivering smoother, healthier, and younger-looking skin with minimal downtime. Available now at LiLyDermis Calgary.

What Is Erbium YAG Fractional Laser?

The Erbium YAG fractional ablative resurfacing laser is a state-of-the-art skin rejuvenation treatment that uses finely tuned laser energy to precisely remove damaged outer layers of skin. At the same time, it stimulates deep collagen remodeling for natural healing and renewal.

Unlike older and more aggressive resurfacing techniques, this fractional laser technology targets microscopic zones of skin while leaving surrounding tissue intact. This allows for faster healing, minimal downtime, and safer results across a range of skin concerns.

Benefits of Erbium YAG Fractional Laser

Those seeking skin rejuvenation choose Erbium YAG fractional laser resurfacing for its powerful yet precise results:

✅ Reduces fine lines and wrinkles

✅ Improves skin tone and texture

✅ Improves acne scars and surgical scars

✅ Improves sun damage and pigmentation

✅ Minimizes large pores

✅ Promotes collagen production, resulting firmer, smoother, youthful skin

Why Choose Erbium YAG Over Other Lasers?

One of the most common questions clients ask is how Erbium YAG fractional laser compares to CO₂ lasers. Both are effective, but Erbium YAG is known for:

  • Greater precision – allows highly controlled depth of resurfacing

  • Less thermal damage – meaning reduced risk and faster recovery

  • Effective yet gentle – ideal for delicate areas such as around the mouth and eyes

This makes it a preferred option for clients seeking dramatic improvement with more comfort and quicker healing process.

Treatment Experience & Downtime

A typical Erbium YAG fractional laser treatment at LiLyDermis takes about 30–60 minutes, depending on the area treated. During the procedure, we use Zimmer cooling system to maximize comfort, and most clients describe the sensation as a warm, tingling feeling.

  • Downtime: Mild redness and flaking may occur for 5–7 days, similar to a moderate sunburn.

  • Recovery: You can usually return to normal activities within a few days.

  • Results: Skin continues to improve for weeks as new collagen forms, with long-lasting rejuvenation.
