ERICA
Precision Skin Rejuvenation
with the Power of Er:YAG
What is ERICA?
What is Benefit of ERICA?
Compared to other lasers like the 10,600 nm COâ‚‚ laser, ERICA’s 2940 nm Er:YAG laser offers a much gentler approach to skin resurfacing. It precisely removes only the outermost layer of the skin with minimal thermal damage to the surrounding tissue.
This allows for a highly controlled treatment that promotes faster healing, reduces the risk of irritation or scarring, and significantly shortens recovery time—making it ideal for patients who want effective results with less discomfort and downtime.
How does ERICA Work?
ERICA uses a 2940 nm wavelength that is highly absorbed by water in the skin. This allows it to gently vaporize very thin layers of skin tissue with minimal heat damage.
Its precise, pixelated laser energy creates controlled micro-injuries in the skin—activating the body’s natural healing process and stimulating collagen production. The result is visibly smoother, firmer, and more radiant skin.
This effect is further enhanced by its specialized fractional handpiece, which features a unique hexagonal lens that generates a grid of 360 high-intensity micro-spots.
This allows for powerful yet targeted rejuvenation with minimal impact on surrounding skin.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q. Who is a good candidate for ERICA?
ERICA is ideal for individuals looking to improve skin tone, texture, scars, and signs of aging with minimal recovery time. It works best for lighter skin tones, but your provider will assess suitability during consultation.
Q. Is the treatment painful?
Discomfort is minimal. A topical numbing cream is usually applied before treatment to ensure comfort. Patients often describe the sensation as a warm tingling or prickling feeling.
Q. How many sessions will I need?
Most patients see visible improvement after just 1–2 sessions, but a series of 3–4 treatments spaced several weeks apart may be recommended for best results, depending on skin condition and goals.
Q. Can I return to work after treatment?
Yes, most patients return to normal activities within 1–2 days.
Q. How soon will I see results?
Initial improvements in skin texture and tone can appear within a week, with continued improvement over several weeks as collagen continues to rebuild.
