Support Scalp Health with ABLATIVE & NON-ABLATIVE Laser
Safe, Medically-Led Scalp Laser Treatments
At Brisbane Robotic Hair Transplant, we offer advanced scalp rejuvenation with both 1540nm Erbium (non-ablative) and 2940nm Er:YAG (ablative) fractional lasers, two clinically proven technologies that support scalp and follicle health by stimulating circulation and encouraging tissue remodeling. Thermal laser energy creates tiny micro-channels, which increase blood flow and overall health of the dermal tissue to reduce follicle loss.
Used as part of a broader hair health plan it helps create optimal conditions for stronger, healthier hair over time. Book a consultation today to see how 1540nm Erbium or 2940nm Er:YAG laser can be tailored to your hair loss goals.
How Laser Works For Hair Loss
1540nm Erbium Laser (Non-Ablative)
The 1540nm erbium laser uses non-ablative, fractional technology to deliver precise columns of heat into the scalp, while leaving surrounding tissue untouched. This targeted approach allows the area to heal faster than traditional resurfacing treatments, while stimulating the body’s natural repair processes.
For scalp rejuvenation, the laser helps support follicle health by stimulating circulation and encouraging tissue remodeling. When combined with a broader hair health plan it helps create the optimal environment for stronger, healthier hair over time.
2940nm Er:YAG Laser (Ablative)
The 2940nm Er:YAG laser works at a wavelength strongly absorbed by water, allowing for controlled resurfacing. This laser creates microscopic channels in the skin that trigger deeper tissue regeneration and improved oxygen and nutrient supply to hair follicles.
Compared to the 1540nm laser, the 2940nm laser provides more intensive stimulation of the scalp surface and deeper collagen renewal. This can be especially beneficial for those seeking to revitalise dormant follicles or enhance outcomes from other hair-restorative therapies, such as PRP, Microneedling, or RF Microneedling.
Am I a Good Candidate for Laser Scalp Rejuvenation?
Fractional erbium laser is suitable for many people seeking scalp rejuvenation.
- Adults experiencing thinning, shedding, or receding hairlines
- Individuals with early-to-moderate hair loss seeking non-surgical options
- Want to support scalp health to complement other hair treatments
- Want to achieve results with minimal downtime
Your clinician will carefully assess your scalp concerns and medical history before recommending the most appropriate wavelength (or combination) for your needs.
Benefits of Laser for hair loss and
scalp rejuvenation
When applied to the scalp, both lasers support a healthier environment for hair follicles by stimulating circulation and encouraging tissue remodeling. This can complement broader hair health plans and help create optimal conditions for stronger, healthier hair over time.
- Stimulates scalp circulation and tissue regeneration
- Supports follicle and skin health
- Enhances scalp environment for hair growth
- Can be combined with other hair loss treatments for enhanced results
- Customisable intensity (non-ablative 1540nm or ablative 2940nm)
Scalp Laser Process At
Queensland Skin And Laser
Consultation
Your journey begins with a detailed scalp assessment to confirm suitability and design a tailored treatment plan. Your clinician will recommend the most appropriate wavelength, 1540nm, 2940nm, or a combination based on your scalp type, goals, and overall hair health strategy.
Procedure
1540nm (non-ablative) delivers micro-columns of energy, which gently heats the dermis to promote collagen renewal. Similarly, the 2940nm Er:YAG (ablative) delivers micro-channels of energy that trigger controlled healing and regeneration. Sessions usually take 20–45 minutes, depending on the treatment area and laser intensity.
Aftercare
You may experience mild redness, warmth, or light flaking for several days. Most people return to normal activities quickly. Consistent care and multiple sessions (spaced 4-6 weeks apart) are generally recommended.
Your clinician will explain aftercare and realistic outcomes during consultation.
Possible Risks or Side Effects
When performed by trained professionals, fractional erbium is generally considered safe. However, temporary effects can include:
- Redness or swelling
- Mild flaking
- Temporary sensitivity
- Rare complications such as scarring or infection
Following aftercare instructions and protecting your scalp from sun exposure helps reduce risks.
Cost of Laser Treatment for hair loss
Treatment costs vary depending on the treatment area, the number of sessions recommended, and whether combined with other hair-restorative therapies such as PRP, microneedling, or hair transplants.

Frequently Asked Questions
Scalp Laser Treatment Brisbane
Can erbium laser be used on the scalp?
Yes. The erbium laser can be applied to the scalp to stimulate circulation and support a healthier environment for hair follicles. Book a consultation to see whether scalp laser treatment could support your hair goals.
Does erbium laser treatment hurt?
Most patients describe a warm or prickling sensation during treatment. To maximise comfort, we use numbing cream as needed.
How many sessions of erbium laser do I need?
Most people benefit from 3–6 sessions, depending on whether the goal is scar reduction, skin rejuvenation, or scalp health. We’ll tailor your treatment plan to your specific concerns at your free laser consultation.
What is the downtime or recovery after erbium laser?
Downtime is usually minimal. Expect mild redness or swelling for 1–3 days, similar to a mild sunburn. Some people notice light flaking, which can occur for several days. Most patients return to daily activities quickly.
When will I see results from erbium laser?
Improvements often begin after the first session, but results build gradually over a series of treatments. Skin texture and scars improve as new collagen forms, while scalp benefits may take a few months of consistent treatment.
Any surgical or invasive procedure carries risks. Before proceeding, you should seek a second opinion from an appropriately qualified health practitioner.
