Restore Skin & Support Scalp Health with Fractional Laser
Safe, Medically-Led Skin & Scalp Laser Treatments
Whether you’re looking to refresh your skin or create a healthier environment for hair growth, the 1540nm fractional Erbium laser offers a medically-led, precise solution tailored to your needs.
For skin treatments, this non-ablative laser targets the deeper layers of the skin to improve texture, soften fine lines, and reduce acne or surgical scars. By stimulating collagen production while leaving surrounding tissue intact, it promotes gradual, natural-looking rejuvenation over a series of treatments. For patients seeking more intensive results, we may combine 1540nm Erbium laser with RF microneedling for synergistic skin remodelling.
For scalp treatments, the laser helps support follicle health by stimulating circulation and encouraging tissue remodeling. 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 laser can be tailored to your skin or scalp goals.
How 1540nm Erbium Laser Works
The 1540nm fractional Erbium laser uses non-ablative, fractional technology to deliver precise columns of heat into the skin or 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.
Skin Treatments
For the skin, this non-ablative laser works beneath the surface to improve texture, soften fine lines, and reduce acne or surgical scars. By creating controlled micro-injuries, it stimulates collagen production while leaving surrounding tissue intact, promoting gradual, natural-looking rejuvenation over a series of treatments.
Scalp Treatments
For the scalp, 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.
For some patients, the treatment can be combined with Radio Frequency Microneedling, enhancing collagen stimulation and improving overall results.
- Targets micro-columns of tissue
- Stimulates collagen and elastin for smoother, firmer skin
- Supports scalp circulation and follicle health

Queensland Skin And Laser
Consultation
Your journey begins with a skin or scalp assessment to confirm suitability and outline a tailored plan.
Procedure
During treatment, the laser delivers micro-columns of energy to the skin or scalp. For the skin, a topical numbing cream may be used for comfort. Sessions usually take 20–45 minutes, depending on the treatment area.
Aftercare
You may experience mild redness or swelling, similar to sunburn, for a few days. Most people return to normal activities quickly. For skin, results build gradually over several sessions as collagen remodels. For scalp treatments, consistent care and multiple sessions 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 or bronzing of the skin
- Temporary sensitivity
- Rare complications such as scarring or infection
Following aftercare instructions and protecting your skin from sun exposure helps reduce risks.

Frequently Asked Questions
1540nm Erbium Laser Treatment
How many sessions of 1540nm 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.
Is 1540nm erbium laser safe for darker skin tones?
Yes. The 1540nm fractional erbium laser is non-ablative, meaning it works beneath the skin’s surface while minimising surface damage. This makes it suitable for a wide range of skin types, including darker tones, when performed by trained professionals. Schedule a consultation to find out if this treatment is right for your skin tone.
What is the downtime or recovery after 1540nm 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 or bronzing of the skin. Most patients return to daily activities quickly.
Can 1540nm 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.
When will I see results from 1540nm 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.
Does 1540nm erbium laser treatment hurt?
Most patients describe a warm or prickling sensation during treatment. To maximise comfort, we use numbing cream as needed.
Any surgical or invasive procedure carries risks. Before proceeding, you should seek a second opinion from an appropriately qualified health practitioner.
