How NewSkin Laser Uses Erbium Technology to Treat Melasma, Acne Scars & Resurface Skin

At NewSkin Laser in Northridge and Simi Valley, we specialize in advanced skin rejuvenation using the Erbium:YAG laser — a highly precise resurfacing technology designed to improve skin tone, texture, and clarity with controlled, minimal thermal damage.

Unlike more aggressive resurfacing lasers, the Erbium laser works at a wavelength (2,940 nm) that is highly absorbed by water in the skin. Because skin contains a large amount of water, this allows the laser energy to gently vaporize targeted layers of damaged tissue while minimizing excess heat to surrounding areas. The result is controlled resurfacing with faster healing and reduced downtime.


Improving Acne Scars with precision

Acne scarring often requires stimulation of collagen remodeling to improve skin texture. The Erbium laser creates micro-injury in the skin that triggers the body’s natural healing response, promoting new collagen formation. This gradual remodeling helps soften scar edges, smooth irregular texture, and improve overall skin quality — without the prolonged downtime often associated with deeper thermal lasers.


Comprehensive Skin Resurfacing

For patients seeking brighter, smoother, and more youthful-looking skin, Erbium resurfacing is an excellent option. By precisely removing damaged outer layers, the treatment helps reduce:

  • Fine lines
  • Sun damage
  • Uneven texture
  • Enlarged pores

Because the Erbium laser causes less residual heat compared to traditional CO₂ lasers, recovery is typically faster, with less prolonged redness.


Experience Matters

All consultations at NewSkin Laser in Northridge and Simi Valley are complimentary. Each patient is evaluated by a provider with over 20 years of clinical experience, ensuring that treatment plans are customized, safe, and results-driven.


Laser resurfacing is not one-size-fits-all. Proper assessment of skin type, pigmentation tendencies, and scarring depth is critical — especially when treating conditions like melasma. Our experience allows us to tailor every session to maximize results while protecting your skin’s health.


If you’re considering treatment for acne scars, or overall skin rejuvenation, schedule your complimentary consultation and discover how precision Erbium technology can safely transform your skin.


We serve the Simi Valley, Moorpark, Thousand Oaks, Westlake village and the Oaks area with amazing reviewes with results that have clients praising our expertise in this area. .

Weight loss program with semaglutide, ozempic and wegovy.

Ladies and gentlemen, are you tired of feeling like a beached whale on the beach? Are you done with feeling self-conscious about your weight every time you step on the scale? Well, have no fear because Wegovy (Semaglutide) is here! Wegovy is the latest and greatest weight loss sensation on the market. It's like a magic potion for weight loss, except it's not magic, it's science. Wegovy is a GLP-1 receptor agonist, which means it works by activating receptors in the body that control appetite and blood sugar levels. In simpler terms, it makes you feel full and reduces the amount of sugar absorbed into the bloodstream. So, you can finally say goodbye to those pesky cravings and hello to a slimmer you! But wait, there's more! Wegovy not only helps you lose weight but also improves other health conditions related to obesity, such as type 2 diabetes and high blood pressure. Imagine being able to fit into those jeans you haven't worn in years AND improve your health at the same time. Talk about a win-win situation! But before you run to your nearest pharmacy, there are a few things you should know. Wegovy is a prescription medication, which means you'll need to talk to your doctor about the potential risks and benefits of the medication before starting treatment. Also, you should know that Wegovy should be used in conjunction with a diet and exercise program. It's not a magic pill, and you can't just sit on the couch eating pizza and expect to lose weight. But let's be real, who wants to give up pizza anyway? Now, let's talk about the elephant in the room (no pun intended), weight loss can be a long and tedious process. But let's not forget that weight loss is a journey, not a destination. It's important to set realistic goals and to be patient with yourself. Losing weight too quickly can lead to health problems, and the weight may come back just as quickly as it was lost. A healthy rate of weight loss is around 1-2 pounds per week. And remember, weight loss is not just about the number on the scale, but also about improving overall health and well-being. In conclusion, Wegovy (Semaglutide) will help you to lose weight and improve your health. So, don't wait any longer, talk to us at NewSkin Laser Center about Wegovy and start your weight loss journey today! P.S: Wegovy is not recommended for pregnant or breastfeeding women. At NewSkin Laser Center, we are currently treating clients with Wegovy (Semaglutide) or compounded Semaglutide. The compounded Semaglutide has been arranged and you can start today. Results have been similar to the Branded name. Customized Weight loss treatment plans are available depending on your goals and method of losing weight. We have treatments along the way to counter some of the side effects of Wegovy such as Nausea, bloating and fatigue. If you are serious about your weight loss, give us a call for real results!
