TREATMENT FAQS
How Many Treatment Sessions Will I Need?
The number of treatments required will vary based on skin type and severity of the condition, among other factors. However, most patients can expect 3 to 5 sessions to achieve optimal results, and some may require maintenance sessions to sustain skin health and appearance.
​
Can The Aerolase Laser Be Used On Dark Skin?
Yes! Unlike other laser therapies — which carry high risk for burning, damaging, and permanently scarring dark skin tones — the advanced technology behind the Aerolase directs light deep below the skin's surface, leaving the outer layer of the skin untouched.
