Today we’re diving into a topic I get asked about all the time—what’s the difference between Erbium and CO2 lasers, and which one is right for your skin? CO2 lasers have been around forever, and while they’re effective, they can come with longer healing times and a higher risk of pigmentation issues. That’s where Erbium lasers shine.
In this episode, I break down the real science behind both technologies, explain why Erbium’s higher affinity for water makes it safer—especially for darker skin types—and why I prefer it for both fractional and full-field resurfacing. If you’re considering laser treatment, this is a must-listen to help you make an informed decision. Plus, I’ll share a bit about my new book, The Art of Aging: Look Great, Not Fake, and where you can learn even more.
