Aerolase® Era Elite

The Aerolase® Era Elite is an advanced erbium laser treatment that resurfaces and renews the skin using precise 2940 nm technology. Its ultra-short 300-microsecond pulse allows the skin to cool between pulses, minimizing excess heat and reducing the risk of unwanted damage compared to traditional resurfacing lasers.

This controlled approach allows for effective skin renewal with a lower risk of pigment concerns and more seamless blending between treated areas. Era Elite can be customized based on your skin goals and desired level of downtime, ranging from lighter refresh treatments to more advanced resurfacing.

Most commonly performed on the face, neck, and chest, this treatment can also be used on other areas of the body and is effective for improving texture, fine lines, sun damage, and the appearance of scars.

Before your treatment, you will have a thorough consultation with your provider to assess your skin and create a customized treatment plan based on your concerns and desired level of correction.

On the day of your treatment, your skin will be cleansed and prepped. We apply EXO|E plant-based exosomes prior to treatment to help support the skin, reduce inflammation, and enhance the overall healing process.

During the procedure, patients may experience a warm or mildly intense sensation depending on the depth of treatment, but the treatment is designed to remain as comfortable as possible without the need for numbing.

Treatment time typically ranges from 30 to 60 minutes depending on the area being treated and the level of resurfacing.

After treatment, the skin will feel warm and appear red, similar to a sunburn. Some swelling may occur within the first 24 to 48 hours. As the skin heals, you can expect peeling and renewal over the following several days.

Downtime typically ranges from 5 to 10 days depending on the intensity of the treatment and your individual skin response. Your provider will guide you through detailed post-care instructions and provide products to support proper healing and optimal results.

Aerolase® Era Elite is a safe and well-tolerated treatment when performed by a trained provider and when proper pre- and post-care instructions are followed.

Because this is a resurfacing treatment, temporary side effects such as redness, swelling, and peeling are expected as part of the normal healing process. These effects vary depending on the intensity of the treatment and typically resolve within several days.

At Skin Boss Med Spa, we provide detailed guidance before and after your treatment to support proper healing and ensure the best possible outcome. Ongoing communication with your provider helps minimize risk and optimize results.

Aerolase® Era Elite is a highly customizable resurfacing treatment that can address a wide range of skin concerns in a single session. Depending on the depth of treatment, it can improve superficial pigment and fine lines or be adjusted to target deeper wrinkles, texture, sun damage, and acne scars.

One of the key benefits of Era Elite is its ability to deliver visible skin renewal relatively quickly, with improvements in smoothness, clarity, and overall skin quality as the skin heals and regenerates.

This treatment is designed to be both effective and controlled, allowing your provider to tailor the level of resurfacing based on your goals and comfort with downtime. A consultation will determine if this treatment is appropriate for your skin type and concerns.

Results can be long-lasting with proper skincare and maintenance treatments, helping to preserve and enhance your results over time as the skin continues to age.

Aerolase® Era Elite is a great option for patients looking to improve skin texture, fine lines, sun damage, acne scars, and overall skin quality through resurfacing.

This treatment can be customized to address a range of skin concerns, with adjustable settings that allow for varying levels of correction based on your goals. Its precise 300-microsecond technology helps reduce excess heat in the skin, which can lower the risk of post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation compared to traditional ablative lasers.

One of the key advantages of Aerolase® Era Elite is its ability to safely treat all skin types, including Fitzpatrick skin types I through VI, when appropriate settings are used. This makes it a more inclusive and versatile option compared to many traditional resurfacing lasers.

A consultation is essential to determine the most appropriate treatment approach based on your skin type, concerns, and goals. Your provider will recommend the safest and most effective plan tailored specifically to you.

The cost of Aerolase® Era Elite treatments varies based on the treatment area, the level of resurfacing performed, and your overall treatment plan.

Because this treatment is fully customizable, pricing can differ depending on the depth of correction and the number of sessions recommended to achieve your desired results.

During your consultation, your provider will assess your skin, discuss your goals, and provide a personalized treatment plan with clear pricing so you know exactly what to expect.

Aerolase® Era Elite uses advanced 2940 nm erbium laser technology to precisely remove damaged layers of the skin in a controlled manner. This process stimulates the body’s natural healing response, encouraging new skin cell growth and collagen production.

By targeting water within the skin, the laser gently resurfaces the treatment area, improving texture, tone, and overall skin quality while revealing healthier, more youthful-looking skin.

Its ultra-short 300-microsecond pulse allows for controlled ablation with minimal excess heat, which helps reduce the risk of unwanted damage and supports a safer, more precise treatment compared to traditional resurfacing lasers.

Downtime after Aerolase® Era Elite varies depending on the depth of the treatment and your individual skin response. Because this is a resurfacing procedure, some level of downtime is expected.

Most patients experience redness, swelling, and peeling as the skin heals and renews. This process typically lasts around 5 to 10 days, with more advanced treatments requiring additional recovery time.

While there is downtime, it is often less than traditional resurfacing lasers due to the controlled delivery of energy and reduced heat in the skin. Your provider will guide you on what to expect based on your treatment plan and ensure you are fully prepared for the healing process.

Most patients feel comfortable resuming normal activities once the initial healing phase is complete.

Yes, Aerolase® Era Elite can be combined with other treatments to enhance overall results and create a more comprehensive skin rejuvenation plan.

One of the most popular combinations at Skin Boss Med Spa is the Aerolase® Reverse treatment, which pairs Aerolase® Neo Elite with Era Elite. This approach allows us to target multiple layers of the skin in a single session by combining Neo Elite’s ability to treat redness, acne, and pigment with Era Elite’s resurfacing and collagen-stimulating benefits. The result is smoother, clearer, and more radiant skin with both immediate and long-term improvement.

Era Elite can also be combined with treatments such as Pixel8-RF microneedling or Clear + Brilliant® Permea to further enhance collagen production, refine texture, and improve overall skin quality.

Combination treatments are often recommended for patients looking to achieve more advanced or accelerated results. Your provider will customize your treatment plan based on your skin goals to ensure the best possible outcome.
