How NOUVADerm Works
NOUVADerm uses a 1927nm Thulium laser to deliver precise energy into the skin, creating tiny microthermal zones that signal your skin to heal and renew itself. The result is increased collagen, refined texture, more even tone, and the kind of glow that comes from healthy skin — not a filter.
Because the laser is fractional, it treats only a portion of the skin at a time, leaving the surrounding tissue intact. That means real results with faster healing and less downtime than traditional resurfacing lasers.
Three Levels. One Plan Built for You.
Some patients want a lunchtime refresh. Others are ready for a deeper renewal. NOUVADerm meets you where you are Kelli builds your plan around your skin, your goals, and the downtime you can give it.
GENTLE
Non-Ablative
Little to no downtime. A glow-up session you can fit on a lunch break. Best for prevention, maintenance, and a fresh-skin reset before an event.
Mild redness · resume same day
MODERATE
Sub-Ablative
A meaningful resurfacing session. Best for active concerns —pigmentation, dullness, early texture changes — when you can take a quiet weekend to heal.
1–3 days of mild redness or flaking
INTENSE
Ablative
Little to no downtime. A glow-up session you can fit on a lunch break. Best for prevention, maintenance, and a fresh-skin reset before an event.
3–7 days of recovery · plan around social calendar
Your consultation with Kelli decides which level — and how many sessions — is right for your skin.
What to Expect at Your Visit
| Consultation | We start with a private consult in the suite. Kelli reviews your skin, your goals, your history, and recommends a level and session count tailored to you. |
| Treatment | Sessions run 30 to 60 minutes. A numbing cream goes on first for comfort. You'll feel mild warmth as the laser works — most patients describe it as tolerable, not painful. |
| Right After | Skin may feel warm — like a light sunburn — for a few hours. Depending on the level you chose, expect anywhere from no downtime to a few days of redness, mild swelling, or light flaking as your skin renews. |
| Your Results | Many patients see an immediate refresh after the first session. Full results build over 4 to 6 weeks as your skin produces new collagen. Most plans include 1 to 4 sessions, spaced about 4 weeks apart. |
