Laser skin care has come a long way — and at Boulder Skin Bar, we've built our laser treatments around the Aerolase platform because it delivers real results gently, with no downtime, and safely on every skin tone. Whether you're targeting acne, rosacea, and pigmentation or resurfacing for wrinkles, sun damage, and texture, there's an Aerolase treatment matched to your skin and your goals right here in Boulder, CO.
Every laser treatment at Boulder Skin Bar is built around the Aerolase platform — advanced technology that delivers real, visible results gently, with no downtime, and safely on all skin tones. Each laser targets specific concerns, from acne and redness to wrinkles, sun damage, and texture.
Below are the two Aerolase lasers we offer. Learn more about Aerolase Neo Elite in Boulder and Aerolase Era in Boulder, and we'll help you decide which one — or which combination — fits your skin best.
A gentle, FDA-cleared laser that treats over 36 skin concerns with ultra-fast 650-microsecond pulses — no numbing, no downtime, and safe for all skin tones (Fitzpatrick I–VI). Ideal for acne and acne scarring, rosacea and facial redness, melasma and hyperpigmentation, and overall skin rejuvenation.
A precise 2940 nm Er:YAG resurfacing laser for smoothing wrinkles, fading sun damage, refining pores, and improving scars and uneven texture — with adjustable depth from a light refresh to deeper renewal, and comfort even on skin of color.
Advanced laser care demands experience and personalized attention. At Boulder Skin Bar, our licensed providers specialize in the Aerolase platform, and every treatment starts with getting to know your skin, your concerns, and your goals — never a one-size-fits-all approach. Because Aerolase is safe across all skin types and tones, we can tailor a plan that's both effective and gentle, whatever your Fitzpatrick type. Book a free consultation and we'll help you choose the right laser for your skin.

Neo Elite is a gentle, no-downtime laser that treats a wide range of concerns — acne, rosacea, redness, melasma, and pigmentation — with ultra-short 650-microsecond pulses. Era is a resurfacing laser that vaporizes the skin's surface to smooth wrinkles, sun damage, scars, and texture, with adjustable depth (and a little more downtime the deeper you go). In short: Neo Elite for tone, clarity, and calming; Era for resurfacing and renewal. Your consultation determines which — or which combination — fits your skin.
Yes. Both Aerolase lasers are designed for Fitzpatrick skin types I–VI. The 650-microsecond technology limits excess heat, which greatly reduces the risk of burns or pigment changes that older lasers can cause on deeper skin tones.
As a rule of thumb: acne, rosacea, redness, melasma, and hyperpigmentation respond beautifully to Neo Elite, while wrinkles, sun damage, scars, and rough texture are the sweet spot for Era. Many clients benefit from both — we'll recommend a personalized plan at your free consultation.
Neo Elite has essentially no downtime — just mild redness that usually fades within hours. Era's downtime depends on the depth of resurfacing, from a light refresh with minimal downtime to deeper treatments that need a few days of healing.
It depends on your concern and goals. Many clients see improvement after a single session, while a series of 3–6 is common for concerns like acne or pigmentation. We'll map out a plan tailored to you during your consultation.
