Erbium Laser for Scars & Pores
Introduction to Erbium Laser
How Erbium Laser Works
The Erbium Laser operates at a wavelength of 2940 nm, which is close to the peak absorption of water (around 3000 nm). When interacting with the skin, it induces vaporization and coagulation. Compared to CO₂ Laser, water absorption of the Erbium wavelength is 12–18 times higher, allowing most of the laser energy to be absorbed with minimal residual heat. As a result, thermal damage and the coagulation zone are significantly reduced, lowering the risk of side effects such as post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation and prolonged redness.
- Scar remodeling mechanism:
Erbium Laser removes the epidermis and part of the dermis, triggering the skin’s natural healing response and promoting new tissue formation. Necrotic epidermal fragments are gradually replaced by new epithelial cells, filling in atrophic (indented) scars and improving skin texture.
- Skin rejuvenation mechanism:
In deeper skin layers, Erbium Laser generates temperatures above 50°C, reshaping the three-dimensional structure of collagen and causing collagen fibers to contract. Over the next 3–6 months, new collagen fibers replace the old ones, resulting in firmer, smoother skin with reduced wrinkles.
Modern Erbium Laser technology delivers energy through numerous microthermal zones, preventing excessive heat concentration and minimizing skin damage.
- Safety: Erbium Laser is FDA-approved for its safety and compatibility with human skin. Thanks to technological advancements, it significantly reduces common laser-related side effects such as post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation, prolonged redness, and skin irritation.
- High Precision: Erbium Laser precisely targets and removes damaged skin cells without affecting the surrounding healthy tissue.
- Minimal Discomfort: The laser delivers energy through ultra-fine microthermal zones, dispersing heat evenly across the skin to minimize pain and discomfort during treatment.

- Sun Protection
After treatment, the skin becomes more sensitive to sunlight. During the first two days, sunscreen should not be applied; instead, protect the skin carefully using thick cotton masks or dark, dense clothing. From the third day onward, WEDO recommends applying a broad-spectrum sunscreen with SPF 30 or higher regularly — even when indoors.
- Gentle Skincare Products
Use mild, non-irritating skincare products free from harsh chemicals to avoid triggering sensitivity. Opt for natural formulations without abrasive particles. Avoid active ingredients such as BHA, AHA, Retinol, Tretinoin, Vitamin C, Hydroquinone, Arbutin, or Benzoyl Peroxide (BPO) for the first 1–2 weeks after treatment.
For hypertrophic scars, apply the prescribed topical treatment twice daily on the treated area as directed by your dermatologist.
- Proper Post-Treatment Cleansing
– Within the first 24 hours after scar treatment:
Mild redness, tightness, or slight itching are normal skin reactions. To soothe and support healing:
-
Cleansing: Cleanse the skin once with saline solution and gently pat dry using a soft gauze.
-
Moisturizing: Apply a specialized moisturizer 2–3 times daily, using gentle strokes to avoid disrupting scabs or newly formed tissue.
– After 24 hours:
Continue following your dermatologist’s aftercare instructions to maintain hydration, protect the skin, and promote faster recovery.
– After 24 Hours
You may cleanse your face 2–3 times daily with clean water. Avoid the following:
-
Hot water: It can irritate the skin.
-
Harsh cleansers: Strong surfactants may dry out the skin and interfere with healing.
General Precautions
-
Limit exposure to dust and sweat to reduce the risk of infection.
-
Avoid heavy makeup to allow the skin to rest and recover fully.
-
- Stay Hydrated
Adequate hydration supports the healing process and keeps the skin moisturized. Patients are advised to drink at least 2 liters of water daily to aid scar recovery.
- Avoid Touching the Treated Area
After about 5 days, the skin will naturally peel. During this phase, mild itching is normal — however, do not scratch or pick at the peeling skin, as this can lead to hyperpigmentation or scarring. Avoid exfoliation, steaming, or using products with strong peeling agents until the skin has fully healed.
