Both wavelengths power the non-ablative fractional resurfacing offered across Beverly Hills, but they target different depths and different problems. Here is how the physics actually sorts patients into one column or the other.

Beverly Hills practices often offer both non-ablative fractional wavelengths on the same device. Here is how each one behaves in tissue, and how clinicians decide which to fire.

Two workhorse wavelengths dominate non-ablative fractional resurfacing in Beverly Hills. They are often bundled into a single device, but they do very different jobs. Here is how clinicians actually decide between them.

Two non-ablative fractional wavelengths dominate resurfacing menus across Beverly Hills. They sound interchangeable. Mechanistically, they are not. Here is how depth, water absorption, and pigment targets actually differ.

Beverly Hills patients are often quoted two very different resurfacing plans for the same skin concern. The difference usually comes down to one number: the laser's wavelength, and what it does to water in your skin.

Beverly Hills practices increasingly market pico devices as a categorical upgrade over Q-switched lasers. The physics is real, but the clinical advantage is narrower and more ink-specific than the marketing suggests.

§ 04 · Frequently Asked
Depends on the concern. Pigment (sun spots, melasma) responds to picosecond and Q-switched lasers. Redness and broken vessels respond to IPL, KTP, and pulsed-dye lasers. Texture and wrinkles respond to fractional CO2 or erbium. Hair removal uses Alexandrite (lighter skin), Diode (medium), or NdYAG (darker). A dermatologist consultation identifies the right device.
