Erbium YAG Laser Resurfacing (Case Overview)

Patient Concern

Main concern: under-eye crepiness (fine wrinkles/texture).
• Many patients also choose full-face resurfacing for more comprehensive results.

Why Erbium YAG?

Full ablative resurfacing is considered the best option for crepey under-eye skin.
• Provides dramatic, long-lasting results with noticeable rejuvenation.
• Typically requires about 7-10 days of downtime for healing. Redness may persist in the area for a few weeks afterwards.

Preparation

Topical numbing cream applied (left on for 1 hour).
• Oral medication may be given to reduce anxiety.
• Local numbing injections (lidocaine) are administered for added comfort.
• Numbing eye drops and protective eye shields are used for safety during treatment.

Procedure

Extra laser passes are typically focused around the mouth and eyes, where fine lines and crepey texture are most prominent.
• The goal is to smooth skin texture and tighten the treated areas.
• Patient comfort is continuously monitored throughout the procedure.

Healing & Aftercare

Optional: PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) or blood-derived serum may be applied to speed healing.
• A soothing post-treatment mask or product is often applied immediately afterward.
• Expected recovery involves redness, peeling, and downtime for about one week.
• Skin gradually improves in texture and tone over the following weeks. It is also normal for skin to remain red for several weeks after treatment, even after initial peeling has resolved.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I suffer with rosacea which has gotten progressively worse in my 30s. I also did not like all the pigmentation on my face from years of sun damage. I got BBL laser done with Sarah as this was highly recommended for pigmentation and redness. I couldn't recommend Sarah enough, she was so friendly, knowledgeable and informative and great at keeping me calm during the treatment. I had some redness directly after the treatment which subsided within a couple hours and my skin has not looked better in months. Can't wait for the final result. If you have been considering BBL do not hesitate and book it, you wont regret it. Many thanks to Sarah, looking forward to my next visit.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Do I need wrinkle treating injections before laser resurfacing?

Sometimes, they are recommended in advance to relax strong muscle movements that contribute to wrinkles around the eyes or forehead. This can enhance and prolong the results of laser resurfacing.

How much downtime should I expect?

Most patients experience about 7 -10 days of redness, swelling, and peeling. Makeup can usually be worn after one week, although residual redness may persist for a few weeks depending on individual healing.

When will I see results?

Initial improvement is visible once the skin heals, usually within 1–2 weeks. Results continue to improve over several months as new collagen forms.

Erbium YAG full ablative resurfacing is one of the most effective treatments for fine lines, crepey under-eye skin, and overall skin texture. With proper preparation and aftercare, patients can expect dramatic skin rejuvenation with manageable downtime.
