Renew your skin. Refine texture. Reveal clarity.

A deep-refresh treatment we often recommend in Seoul clinics, Erbium Laser Resurfacing uses a high-precision laser (typically Er:YAG wavelength) to strip away damaged surface skin layers and stimulate robust collagen regeneration. It’s an excellent choice if you’re aiming to treat texture issues, sun damage, fine lines or shallow scarring—with a controlled downtime and visible long-term improvement.

它是什么

Erbium Laser Resurfacing uses an Er-doped YAG laser (commonly around 2940 nm) which targets water in the skin very efficiently, making it highly effective for removing surface damage and promoting renewal.
The energy vaporises selected skin layers and prompts underlying tissue to regenerate and tighten. It’s less aggressive than some CO₂ lasers in terms of thermal damage, offering a somewhat faster recovery while still delivering strong results.

What it treats

这种疗法尤其适用于：

• Fine lines and shallow wrinkles
• Uneven texture / rough skin
• Sun- and age-spots
• 轻度痤疮疤痕（表面疤痕 中等深度）
• Enlarged pores and general laxity
• 希望在无需完全手术恢复期的情况下获得明显改变的部位

为什么选择首尔？

        Seoul’s dermatology clinics excel in laser technology and experience with Asian skin types. You’ll find:

• 针对富含黑色素的皮肤校准的高级 Er:YAG 设备
• Skilled dermatologist-led treatments with international-friendly services
• Combination programmes (laser + boosters + led therapy) to optimise outcomes
• Transparent cost-guides and aftercare suited for travellers

What to expect: Procedure & downtime

Before treatment:

• 治疗前皮肤准备：避免日晒，几天内避免使用某些护肤品（如强效维甲酸）。
• Consultation assessing your skin type, concerns, and suitability.

治疗疗程：

• Topical anaesthetic applied for comfort.
• 激光扫过目标区域；您可能会感到温热、刺痛或轻微灼痛。
• Session length depends on area and intensity (face, neck, hands vary).

Recovery & downtime:

• Immediately post-treatment: redness, warmth, possible mild swelling.
• 1-3天：皮肤可能呈粉红色，表层皮肤可能脱皮或起屑。
• 3-7 days (or longer if deeper setting): visible healing and new smoother skin appears.
• 全面再生：胶原蛋白在数周内持续生成。

结果与持久性

• You’ll see smoother, fresher skin within days; texture and clarity improve over 4-8 weeks.
• 许多诊所报告称，经过 2-3 次疗程（每次间隔 4-6 周）后，可获得最佳效果。
• With good sun protection and care, results can last many months to years, though ageing continues—so maintenance is smart.

Cost estimate in Seoul

• Full-face Er:YAG session: roughly ₩500,000-₩800,000 (KRW) depending on clinic, intensity and area.
• 购买多节课程套餐可能会降低单次课程的费用。
• Add-ons (like PRP, skin-boosters, laser/LED combos) increase cost.

它适合你吗？

  Good candidate if you:

• Have visible skin texture issues, sun damage, fine lines, or mild acne scarring.
• Are willing to allow about a week (or a few days) for visible healing.
• 想要比激光治疗（恢复时间短）效果更显著，但又不想做手术。
• 能够保证适当的后续护理（防晒、温和的护肤）。

  Less ideal if you:

• 皱纹很深，皮肤严重松弛或下垂（可能需要手术或其他更强烈的治疗方案）。
• Have had recent sunburn or very dark skin without specialist assessment (risk of pigment changes).
• 无需停机（需要一些轻微的恢复）。

Travel & planning tips for Seoul visitors

• 提前选择诊所并确认设备类型和强度选项。
• 安排治疗时间时，请确保术后至少有几天的放松时间。
• Arrange your after-treatment skincare and protect from sun exposure (Seoul weather can vary).
• 检查是否为国际患者提供支持（英语工作人员、清晰的沟通）。
• Ask about combining treatments (e.g., laser followed by skin-booster or LED) for enhanced results.
