Get the Gloss featured Mr Olivier Amar and the Aerolase Neo treatment as one of the ‘Best new laser and energy treatments to squeeze in before summer’. Best multi-purpose laser for all skin types: Aerolase Neo Skin Rejuvenation

Aerolase is a collagen-boosting laser that’s new to the UK. Like similar lasers, it uses Nd:YAG technology to create micro-injuries just under the skin, creating a healing response that results in faded age spots, healed capillaries, and less-visible wrinkles. But this laser’s party trick is that it has ‘650-micro second pulse technology’ which, says Mr Amar, “allows for skin cooling between pulses.”

Not only does this make every 20-40 minute session pretty much painless without numbing cream (GTG’s Victoria Woodhall says she couldn’t feel a thing when she tried it), but it also effectively dampens any inflammation, which makes the laser suitable for even the darkest skins.

Another rarity is that the Aerolase can be used to treat active acne. Tricky inflammatory conditions such as melasma, psoriasis and rosacea can also be successfully tackled, alongside acne scars, strawberry marks, and thread veins – and it does laser hair removal as well. You can treat multiple issues in a single session; the number of sessions required depends on what you want treated.’
