Fractional laser skin resurfacing treatment is a gentle and efficient procedure that reduces the range of photoaging signs and rejuvenates the skin, producing fresh, younger looking faces, necks and hands. These impressive results are achieved by replacing old, damaged cells with new, healthy ones – and, with SharpLight’s innovative technology, this is done quickly, effectively and safely.
Our revolutionary Er:YAG laser produces a micro epidermal peel, which through a thermo-mechanical reaction, removes the problematic areas on the top layer of the skin. The fresh layer that grows has an improved texture, reduced or disappeared rhytids, wrinkles, scarring and spots and an overall renewed radiance.
The efficacy and the efficiency of this treatment is strengthened by SharpLight’s Er:YAG laser’s flexibility; practitioners can select the laser’s strength and depth field to adapt to the patients’ needs, making each treatment personalized. Long-lasting results are usually achieved within 1 to 3 relatively short treatment sessions, making it time and cost efficient for both the practitioner and the patient.
SharpLight's skin resurfacing treatments use on Er: YAG 2940nm Fractional Laser . The laser removes old skin and textural imperfections. This allows the skin to renew itself.

Although results are already apparent after the very first treatment, a minimum of 3 treatment sessions are recommended in order to reach visibly clear results. Treatments can take around 30-60 minutes depending on the area being treated.
SharpLight’s pulsed-light treatments are non-invasive and safe. Depending on the patients's needs and wants, the laser's energy can be set to different strengths to affect varying depths, allowing practitioners to provide patient-tailored treatment plan.
With the fractional laser treatment there is typically minimal downtime. However, downtime may vary depending on the individual aggressiveness from one treatment to another.
