Advanced Sciton® Erbium Laser Resurfacing for Smoother, Firmer-Looking, More Refreshed Skin
As we age, our skin naturally changes. Fine lines become more noticeable, skin texture may become uneven, sun damage accumulates, and collagen production gradually declines.
For many people, the goal isn't necessarily to look different. It's to look refreshed, restore skin quality and feel confident in their appearance.
But what if you're not quite ready for a surgical facelift?
At London Plastic Surgery & Advanced Aesthetics (LPS), we offer an advanced approach to non-surgical skin rejuvenation through our LPS Laser Lift, featuring Sciton® ProFractional® and Contour TRL® Erbium laser resurfacing.
Designed to address visible signs of aging, these treatments can help improve wrinkles, uneven texture, sun damage and the overall appearance of the skin.

What Is a Laser Lift?
A Laser Lift is a non-surgical skin rejuvenation approach that uses advanced laser resurfacing technologies to improve skin quality and address visible signs of aging.
Unlike a surgical facelift, which repositions underlying tissues to address facial sagging, laser resurfacing focuses on the skin itself.
Depending on the treatment selected, laser resurfacing can help:
-
Improve the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles
-
Address uneven skin texture and roughness
-
Reduce the visible effects of sun damage
-
Support collagen remodeling
-
Improve the appearance of certain scars
-
Promote smoother, more refreshed-looking skin
At LPS, our Laser Lift approach incorporates advanced Sciton® Erbium laser technologies, including ProFractional® and Contour TRL®.
Treatment selection and intensity are customized according to your skin concerns, goals and appropriate recovery timeline.
Meet the Technology Behind the LPS Laser Lift
Sciton ProFractional® Laser Resurfacing
ProFractional® is an advanced fractional Erbium laser treatment designed to improve skin texture and the appearance of wrinkles, scars and other visible imperfections.
The technology creates controlled microscopic treatment zones within the skin while leaving surrounding tissue intact.
This stimulates the skin's natural healing response and supports collagen remodeling.
ProFractional® may be used to address:
-
Fine lines and wrinkles
-
Acne scarring and certain textural irregularities
-
Uneven skin texture
-
Enlarged-looking pores
-
Visible signs of photoaging
Treatment depth and intensity can be adjusted to individual needs, with recovery varying according to the treatment performed.
Sciton Contour TRL® Deep Erbium Laser Resurfacing
For more pronounced skin concerns, Contour TRL® offers customizable Erbium laser resurfacing at varying depths.
This technology can be used to address more established wrinkles, sun damage and textural irregularities through controlled removal of targeted skin layers.
As the skin heals, new skin forms and collagen remodeling occurs.
Contour TRL® may help improve:
-
Deeper wrinkles and lines
-
Sun-damaged skin
-
Uneven skin texture
-
Certain visible scars
-
Overall skin smoothness and rejuvenation
Because deeper resurfacing involves a more significant healing process, treatment planning and recovery expectations are important parts of your consultation.
Laser Lift vs. Surgical Facelift: What's the Difference?
One of the most common questions patients ask is whether laser resurfacing can provide facelift-like results.
The answer depends on the concern being treated.
A surgical facelift addresses facial sagging by repositioning underlying tissues and removing or adjusting excess skin where appropriate.
A Laser Lift focuses on improving the skin's surface, texture and visible signs of aging.

For patients primarily concerned with skin quality, wrinkles and texture, laser resurfacing may be an option worth exploring.
For more significant facial laxity, a surgical consultation may be more appropriate.
At LPS, our goal is to help you understand your options and select an approach that aligns with your anatomy, concerns and desired results.
What Areas Can Be Treated With a Laser Lift?
Depending on the technology, treatment settings and individual candidacy, Sciton Erbium laser resurfacing may be considered for areas including:
-
Face
-
Neck
-
Décolleté and chest
-
Selected areas with textural irregularities or sun damage
Not every laser treatment is appropriate for every body area. Your provider will assess the skin and recommend an individualized treatment plan.
What Is Recovery Like After Laser Resurfacing?
Recovery depends on the treatment selected, the depth of resurfacing and your individual healing response.
Fractional resurfacing and deeper Contour TRL® treatments have different recovery considerations.
Following treatment, temporary redness, swelling, sensitivity, peeling and skin renewal may occur.
Your provider will explain:
-
Expected downtime
-
Skin preparation before treatment
-
Post-treatment skincare
-
Sun protection
-
Healing milestones
-
When to resume your regular skincare routine and activities
Following your individualized aftercare instructions is essential to supporting proper healing and skin health.
