Reverse by Aerolase: Advanced Dual-Layer Skin Rejuvenation Treatment
What is Reverse by Aerolase Treatment?
Reverse by Aerolase is an innovative dual-laser treatment that delivers comprehensive skin rejuvenation by targeting both dermis and epidermis layers simultaneously. This two step treatment brings both corrective and preventative benefits. With its gentle yet powerful energy output, Reverse by Aerolase promotes the natural process of collagen production, resulting in improved skin elasticity and structural integrity. This boost in collagen enhances the skin’s resilience, elasticity, and texture.
Reverse by Aerolase combines two powerful FDA-approved lasers in one treatment:
- Neo Elite (NeoSkin): A 650-microsecond non-ablative laser that penetrates deep into the dermis, improving the skin from the inside out.
- Era Elite (EraPeel): A 300-microsecond ablative laser that precisely targets the epidermis, improving the skin from the outside in.
Both devices deliver impressive results, but when used together, they offer a comprehensive solution for those seeking lasting anti-ageing results and improved skin health.
Your consultation
Whether meeting in person or remotely, your consultation with Mr Olivier Amar provides a comprehensive discussion of your hoped for goals and treatment options. To get the most out of your consultation, we recommend reviewing information about your area of interest beforehand.
During your consultation, Mr Olivier Amar will listen to your desired outcomes and goals, conduct a thorough assessment, present appropriate treatment options and explain procedures in detail. This will include a step-by-step treatment process, required preparation, recovery timeline and potential risks and complications.

Safe for all skin types
Reverse by Aerolase is suitable all Fitzpatrick skin types, including darker complexions. Its precision technology prevents hyperpigmentation and complications while ensuring optimal results for all skin types, dark and melanin rich skin and sensitive skin conditions.
Risks associated with treatment
Every non-surgical treatment, while performed with the utmost care and expertise, carries inherent risks. Mr Olivier Amar ensures all patients are fully informed about potential complications before proceeding with any treatment.
General treatment side effects are generally mild and temporary, including redness, swelling, bruising and minor discomfort. During your consultation, Mr Olivier Amar will provide detailed information about procedure specific risks, explain preventive measures and safety protocols, answer all questions about potential complications and provide you with all the information needed to make an informed decision.
Preparing for Your Treatment
Aim to arrive to your appointment with your skin as best prepared for your laser treatment as it can be. Pre-treatment guidelines would ideally include:
- Avoid prolonged sun exposure and tanning 7 days before treatment
- Discontinue Retinol and other active skincare products 48 hours prior
- Stop using products containing acids or benzoyl peroxide
- Avoid alcohol 2-3 days before treatment
- Get adequate rest the night before
- Eat a light meal and stay hydrated
- Clean skin thoroughly before treatment
- If you are taking photo-sensitising medication, such as Accutane, you should consult your Dermatologist prior to treatment
Numbing the treatment area
Local anaesthesia involves numbing the treatment area using an injection or gel or a combination. You will still feel some pressure or movement. Full sensation will return when the medication has worn off.
Recovery Guide
Immediately after treatment you can expect to experience redness, swelling and itching which may last around 10 days. The process your skin undergoes to heal after medium or deep depth of ablative laser is typically complete within 10-14 days.
The treated area should be kept moist with ointment for up to two weeks until the healing process is complete. As with all laser treatments, you should avoid direct sun exposure until redness subsides and skin healing is complete, continue using SPF 50+ protection and follow our recommended skincare routine.
Reverse by Aerolase treatment is a gentle resurfacing laser treatment. As a result, there is minimal downtime required. Depending on the type of daily activities, you should be able to resume daily activities between 5-7 days.
Maintaining your results
Everyone’s skin is unique and therefore reacts differently to treatment. Some patients will notice immediate results, while others may see gradual results that appear over time. It is important to understand that skin is always aging and signs of aging will naturally reappear. Reverse by Aerolase offers noticeable improvements in skin texture, tone, and firmness, with results that can last several years. This varies between patients depending on factors such as skin condition, age and how well you look after your skin.
An important step in maintaining healthy and clear skin is to create a consistent treatment routine. You may opt for maintenance sessions to support ongoing collagen production, keep skin conditions under control and preserve results as skin aging continues. It is also recommended that you commit to wearing sun protection daily and follow an at home skincare regimen.
How does Reverse by Aerolase treatment work?
Step 1: Neo Elite Deep Tissue Rejuvenation
Aerolase Neo is an advanced medical laser system using 650-microsecond Nd:YAG pulse technology to deliver precise laser energy deep into the skin. The 650-microsecond pulse timing allows for skin cooling between pulses which limits any discomfort. As the device passes over the skin it stimulates collagen production and reduces inflammation. This technology ensures effective treatment delivery while maintaining comfort and skin safety, resulting in clear, healthy skin without adverse effects.
Step 2: Era Elite Surface Renewal
The Aerolase Era represents the latest advancement in skin rejuvenation technology. Utilising a high-precision 2940nm laser technology and 300-microsecond pulse duration, this treatment encourages faster regrowth of new skin with minimal discomfort and downtime. The laser’s energy is pulsed across the skin’s surface in a carefully controlled manner, gradually vaporising old tissue to stimulate the growth of new skin and collagen for a smooth, evenly toned and youthful appearance. Aerolase Era laser allows for customisable depth of ablation tailored to the individual patient’s needs.
