Medically reviewed by Dr. Michael Potter, MDLast reviewed
Aerolase Era Elite is a 755nm Alexandrite laser that specializes in skin resurfacing, anti-aging, and deep skin renewal.

What's the difference between the Era and Neo Elite?
The Neo Elite (1064nm) is best for active acne, redness, and vascular concerns with zero downtime. The Era Elite (755nm) delivers deeper resurfacing and anti-aging results with a bit more recovery. Many patients use both for comprehensive skin health.
