It’s best to arrive with clean, product-free skin so we can properly assess your treatment area. Avoid applying heavy skincare products, exfoliants, or active ingredients like retinoids for at least 24 to 48 hours beforehand unless otherwise instructed. This helps ensure your skin is in an optimal, neutral state for evaluation and allows for a more precise and comfortable treatment experience tailored to your individual needs.

PIX:E Erbium YAG Laser Resurfacing
Reveal Smoother, Younger-Looking Skin
Turn back the clock without surgery. Our PIX:E Erbium YAG Laser delivers advanced skin resurfacing in Dubois to improve texture, reduce wrinkles, fade scars, and restore a healthy, radiant complexion.
By precisely removing damaged outer layers of skin while stimulating your body’s natural collagen production, the PIX:E laser helps reveal smoother, firmer, healthier-looking skin with less downtime than many traditional resurfacing lasers. Erbium:YAG lasers are commonly used for superficial to moderately deep resurfacing and generally produce less thermal injury than CO₂ lasers, which can mean a faster recovery for appropriate candidates

What to Expect
Your provider will customize the treatment based on your skin goals.
Most treatments take 30–60 minutes, depending on the area being treated. A topical numbing cream is typically applied beforehand to maximize comfort.
After treatment, your skin will feel similar to a sunburn and may appear pink or red. Mild swelling, peeling, and flaking are expected as your skin heals and renews itself.
Most patients experience 5–7 days of social downtime, although redness can persist longer depending on treatment intensity and individual healing.

Every PIX Erbium YAG laser treatment begins with a comprehensive consultation to ensure the procedure is safe, effective, and tailored to your unique skin goals.

Frequently Asked Questions
For the most accurate assessment, you should arrive with freshly cleansed skin and avoid makeup or sunscreen immediately prior to your visit. This allows your provider to evaluate your skin’s natural condition before starting your laser treatments in DuBois. Keeping the skin free of surface products also helps ensure a cleaner treatment field and more consistent application of laser energy.
If you have sensitive or reactive skin, it’s important to share your full skin history during your consultation so we can adjust your settings appropriately. Sometimes, additional supportive services such as ongoing IV therapy or vitamin injections may benefit a broader skincare plan thanks to their nutritional approach to skin health. You can use these options at different times to help maintain overall skin comfort and balance alongside your laser treatments.
