Laser treatments have been evolving fast, and what’s available today is genuinely different from what the aesthetic industry was offering even five years ago. If you’ve been curious about laser skin services in Clearwater but weren’t sure what to ask for or whether they’d actually work for your concerns, this is the guide for you.
At Lueur Aesthetics, our laser and energy-based treatments are selected carefully — not based on what’s trendy, but based on what has clinical evidence behind it and what actually delivers results. We combine laser services with a broader skin care approach so that your treatment plan makes sense as a whole, not just as individual procedures.
Here’s a look at what we offer, how it works, and who it’s best suited for.
NOUVADerm 1927 Laser Resurfacing: Precision Skin Renewal
The NOUVADerm 1927 is a thulium fiber laser that operates at a wavelength specifically chosen to target water in the skin — which is why it’s so effective for surface-level skin concerns like texture, tone, and pigmentation. The 1927nm wavelength sits at the shallow end of the fractional laser spectrum, making it ideal for addressing concerns that are in the outer layers of the skin without the extended downtime associated with more aggressive ablative lasers.
What does that actually mean for you? Shorter recovery. Real results. Treatments like the NOUVADerm 1927 are sometimes described as “lunchtime lasers” because the downtime is measured in days rather than weeks. Most patients experience some redness and mild peeling for three to five days, after which the skin looks noticeably clearer and more even.
What NOUVADerm Laser Treats
Sun damage is one of the most common concerns addressed with the NOUVADerm at our Clearwater clinic — and if you’ve spent any significant time outdoors in Florida, sun damage is a very real concern. The laser targets the melanin clusters that cause brown spots and uneven pigmentation, breaking them up and allowing the body to clear them over the days following treatment. The result is a more even, brighter skin tone.
Fine lines and surface texture are also significantly improved with NOUVADerm treatment. The heat energy delivered by the laser stimulates collagen remodeling, which means your skin gets denser and more resilient over the weeks following your appointment — not just immediately after treatment, but as part of a longer healing process.
Melasma, post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation, and dull or tired-looking skin are all conditions that respond well to the 1927nm wavelength. We also use the NOUVADerm laser for hair restoration in patients dealing with scalp health concerns, which is a less well-known but effective application of this technology.
Scarlet SRF RF Microneedling: Tightening from the Inside Out
While technically not a laser, Scarlet SRF is an energy-based skin treatment that deserves mention in any conversation about advanced skin services. It combines the physical benefits of microneedling with the tissue-remodeling power of radiofrequency energy — and the combination produces results that neither technology can achieve on its own.
The Scarlet system uses ultra-fine needles to deliver RF energy precisely into the dermis — the deeper layer of the skin where collagen and elastin live. This triggers a controlled wound-healing response that results in significant collagen and elastin remodeling over the months following treatment. The result is tighter, firmer skin with improved texture and tone.
Scarlet SRF is particularly effective for skin laxity — sagging along the jawline, under the chin, around the eyes, and on the neck. It’s also one of the better treatments available for acne scarring, enlarged pores, and overall skin quality. Because the RF energy is delivered precisely and the surface of the skin is preserved, the downtime is relatively minimal — most patients have some redness and mild swelling for one to three days.
Agnes RF: Precision Contouring and Lifting
Agnes RF is another radiofrequency device in our treatment portfolio, but it’s designed for a different application than Scarlet. Agnes uses insulated micro-needles to deliver targeted RF energy to very specific, small areas with precision that sets it apart from more generalized RF treatments.
It’s particularly effective for under-eye concerns — the area beneath the eyes and along the lower lids is one of the most difficult zones to treat, and Agnes RF has an impressive track record for addressing puffiness, festoons, and laxity in this area. Agnes is also used for fat reduction in specific areas, submental (under-chin) tightening, and facial contouring.
On the body side, Agnes RF can be used for body contouring and skin lifting in areas like the abdomen, arms, and inner thighs — making it a versatile tool in our treatment portfolio.
Chemical Peels and Laser: When to Use Which
One of the questions we get a lot is whether a chemical peel or a laser treatment is the better choice for a given concern. The honest answer is that they work in complementary ways, and for many patients, both have a place in a comprehensive skin plan.
Chemical peels work on the surface of the skin through a chemical exfoliation process. They’re excellent for acne, clogged pores, mild pigmentation, and overall skin clarity. Deeper peels can address fine lines and texture as well. The Perfect Derma peel and PRX Derm Perfexion treatments we offer at Lueur both deliver results that go beyond what a typical spa peel can achieve.
Laser treatments, on the other hand, deliver their energy more precisely and can target specific concerns — like individual brown spots or collagen remodeling at a specific depth — with more control. For more advanced sun damage, deeper textural concerns, or patients who want the most comprehensive rejuvenation possible, laser plus peel combinations can be particularly powerful.
We’ll help you figure out which approach — or which combination — makes sense for your skin and your goals.
What to Expect Before, During, and After Laser Treatments
Most laser and energy treatments at Lueur Aesthetics require a brief consultation and, in some cases, a skin prep protocol in the weeks leading up to treatment. For laser resurfacing in particular, we typically recommend stopping retinoids and certain active ingredients for a week or two beforehand. If you’re prone to hyperpigmentation, pre-treatment with a brightening protocol may be recommended.
During treatment, a topical numbing cream is applied to keep you comfortable. Treatment time varies by area and device — a full-face NOUVADerm session might take 20 to 30 minutes, while a Scarlet RF microneedling treatment might take a bit longer.
Afterward, there’s typically some redness, warmth, and possibly mild peeling or swelling depending on the treatment depth. Sun protection is non-negotiable post-laser — especially in Florida, where year-round UV exposure is a real factor. We’ll send you home with specific aftercare instructions and products to support your recovery.
