RESURFACING, WITH CONTROL

SOMETIMES THE SURFACE ACTUALLY NEEDS A RESET

Aerolase Era Elite is an ablative Er:YAG resurfacing laser designed to remove controlled layers of damaged surface skin.

Unlike a one-depth-fits-everyone approach, treatment intensity can be adjusted according to what we are correcting and how much recovery makes sense for you.

That can mean a lighter refresh, more intentional texture correction or a deeper resurfacing strategy.

More correction when you need it. More control while we do it.

THE ERA DIFFERENCE

PRECISION DOWN TO THE DEPTH

Era Elite delivers 2940 nm Er:YAG energy using a 300-microsecond pulse.

The treatment depth can be adjusted, allowing us to tailor resurfacing around the concern instead of treating every face with the same intensity.

Depth is a tool. Not a competition.

RESURFACE TEXTURE + TONE
CORRECT DEEPER CONCERNS

The appropriate treatment depth depends on your concern, skin, recovery window and overall treatment plan.

THE ERA EDIT

WHAT ARE WE TRYING TO RESURFACE?

Era becomes interesting when the concern lives at the surface — or has changed the texture of the skin itself.

REMODEL

ACNE SCARS

Selected atrophic and textural acne scars may benefit from controlled resurfacing when deeper correction is appropriate.

SCARS · TEXTURE · REMODELING
SMOOTH

FINE LINES

Resurfacing can be used when visible surface lines and crepey texture are part of the concern.

LINES · CREPEY SKIN · TEXTURE
REFINE

ROUGH TEXTURE

For skin that looks or feels uneven, rough or in need of a more controlled surface renewal.

ROUGHNESS · PORES · SKIN QUALITY
RENEW

PHOTODAMAGE

Selected visible sun damage, uneven tone and age-related surface changes may be addressed through resurfacing.

SUN DAMAGE · TONE · AGE SPOTS

THE ZINA RULE

WE DON’T CHOOSE THE DEEPEST TREATMENT. WE CHOOSE THE RIGHT ONE.

More aggressive does not automatically mean more appropriate.

Skin tone, inflammation, pigment history, barrier health, previous procedures, season and your available recovery time all influence how we approach resurfacing.

THE POWER PAIRING

NEO + ERA.
MEET REVERSE.

Sometimes surface renewal is only half of the conversation.

NEO ELITE

YOU ARE HERE

REVERSE BY AEROLASE

TWO LASERS
TWO LAYERS
ONE STRATEGY

Reverse combines Neo Elite and Era Elite in one comprehensive rejuvenation strategy.

Neo addresses deeper dermal concerns first. Era follows with controlled epidermal resurfacing.

The result is a treatment concept designed to think about skin quality from deeper support through surface renewal — instead of asking one device to do every job.

Deep support + surface correction. That’s the Reverse conversation.

WHEN WE THINK REVERSE

WHEN THE PLAN NEEDS MORE THAN ONE LAYER

AGING + TONE

When visible surface aging overlaps with deeper skin-quality and tone concerns.

TEXTURE + PIGMENT

When uneven texture and discoloration need different treatment strategies.

FULL-SKIN REJUVENATION

When the goal is broader correction rather than treating one isolated surface concern.

THE ERA EXPERIENCE

TREAT. HEAL. REVEAL.

Era is a resurfacing treatment. The recovery is part of the plan — not an inconvenient surprise.

BEFORE

PREP

We review your skin, treatment history, pigmentation risk, goals and recovery window.

IN CLINIC

RESURFACE

Treatment depth and intensity are customized according to your skin and concern.

AFTER

RECOVER

Redness, tightness, dryness and visible shedding can be part of the healing process.

NEXT

REASSESS

Once skin has healed, we reassess before deciding whether more correction is needed.

YOUR RECOVERY ERA

THE GLOW COMES AFTER THE HEALING

Recovery varies with treatment depth, but resurfaced skin needs time, barrier support and sun protection.

EARLY

PINK + TIGHT

Skin may feel warm, pink, tight or sensitive.

NEXT

DRY + BRONZY

The surface may become dry, darker-looking or rough.

SHED

FLAKE + RENEW

Treated surface skin gradually releases during the healing process.

REVEAL

FRESHER SKIN

As healing progresses, newly resurfaced skin becomes visible.

Recovery depends on treatment depth. Follow your personalized aftercare instructions.

AFTER ERA

PROTECT THE RESET

KEEP IT SIMPLE

BARRIER FIRST.

Newly resurfaced skin does not need an aggressive skincare routine.

  • Gentle cleansing
  • Hydration + barrier support
  • Occlusive care when directed
  • No unnecessary exfoliation
PROTECT THE WORK

SPF IS PART OF THE TREATMENT.

Resurfaced skin requires thoughtful sun protection while it heals.

  • Avoid unnecessary sun exposure
  • Use appropriate daily SPF
  • Do not pick peeling skin
  • Follow clinic aftercare instructions

GOOD TO KNOW

AEROLASE ERA FAQ

WHAT IS AEROLASE ERA ELITE? +

Era Elite is a 2940 nm Er:YAG laser designed for controlled ablative skin resurfacing. Treatment depth can be customized according to the concern and treatment plan.

WHAT CAN ERA TREAT? +

Era may be considered for concerns such as acne scars, uneven texture, fine lines, visible sun damage, age spots and selected scars.

HOW MUCH DOWNTIME IS THERE? +

Recovery depends on treatment depth. Aerolase lists approximately 3–5 days of downtime for Era Elite, but deeper treatment may require a more involved healing period.

IS ERA THE SAME AS A FRACTIONAL LASER? +

Era Elite is an Er:YAG ablative resurfacing platform. Treatment configuration and depth depend on the handpiece and protocol being used. We choose the approach according to your skin.

WHAT IS REVERSE BY AEROLASE? +

Reverse combines Aerolase Neo Elite and Era Elite in one rejuvenation strategy. Neo works deeper while Era provides controlled surface resurfacing.

SHOULD I BOOK ERA OR REVERSE? +

Era may make sense when resurfacing is the primary goal. Reverse may be considered when the plan needs both deeper support and surface correction. We determine this after assessment.

CAN ERA HELP ACNE SCARS? +

Era can be incorporated into plans for selected acne scars and texture concerns. Scar type, depth, pigmentation risk, skin tone and healing response all matter.
