What Is NOUVADerm™?
NOUVADerm is a revolutionary 1927nm Thulium laser designed to provide comprehensive skin resurfacing and regeneration.
Unlike traditional laser treatments, NOUVADerm offers customizable treatment depths and intensities, including:
Non-ablative modes for subtle glow and texture refinement
Sub-ablative modes for moderate resurfacing and tone correction
Ablative modes for deeper regenerative repair
How NOUVADerm™ Works
NOUVADerm uses a fractional laser to deliver precise energy into the skin, creating tiny microthermal zones that stimulate the body’s natural healing response.
These controlled micro-injuries encourage the production of collagen and elastin—the building blocks of firm, youthful skin—resulting in:
Improved texture and tone
Increased elasticity and firmness
Softened fine lines and wrinkles
Reduced pigmentation and scarring
Because NOUVADerm targets specific skin concerns while preserving surrounding tissue, healing is faster and downtime is minimal—making it a comfortable, effective alternative to more invasive procedures.
Concerns NOUVADerm™ Can Treat
NOUVADerm is designed to treat a wide range of skin and scalp concerns, including:
Fine lines & wrinkles
Sun damage & pigmentation
Melasma & hyperpigmentation
Acne scars & stretch marks
Uneven skin tone & texture
Enlarged pores
Dullness & loss of radiance
Scalp health & hair-supportive regeneration
Why Choose NOUVADerm™?
Customizable Treatment Options
Each NOUVADerm session is tailored to your skin type, condition, and goals—whether you’re seeking a subtle glow with little downtime or a deeper treatment for more intensive concerns.
Minimal Downtime, Maximum Results
Many clients enjoy “lunchtime” treatments with no downtime, while more intensive resurfacing may require only a few days of recovery.
Full results continue to develop over 4–6 weeks as collagen remodels and the skin regenerates.
Safe for All Skin Types
NOUVADerm is safe for a wide range of skin tones and types. Treatment settings are carefully selected to ensure safe, inclusive, and effective results.
Hair Support Mode™ for Scalp Care
NOUVADerm features a specialized Hair Support Mode™ that revitalizes the scalp, stimulates circulation, and supports hair growth.
When paired with DE|RIVE™ serum, this treatment enhances scalp health and hair vitality—making it a powerful option for hair-supportive regeneration.
NOUVADerm™ Treatment Levels
From Gentle Glow to Deep Regenerative Resurfacing
The NOUVADerm™ 1927nm Thulium Laser treatments are fully customizable, offering three progressive resurfacing levels—designed to meet you exactly where your skin or scalp is and support long-term regeneration.
Choosing Your NOUVADerm Level
Your provider will assess your skin or scalp, review your goals, and recommend the most appropriate treatment level—or a progressive treatment plan that moves through multiple levels over time.
Many guests begin with NOUVAGlo™, then advance to Renewal Resurfacing or Regenerative Resurfacing for deeper results.

Your comfort matters. Depending on your treatment and sensitivity level, you may choose from the following options:
1. Mild Topical Numbing (Over-the-Counter)
Available for purchase online or at your local pharmacy. Apply a generous layer to the treatment area 45 minutes prior to your appointment time. Please arrive with the numbing cream on and the area covered as directed.
2. Prescription Strength Topical Numbing Cream
For enhanced comfort, a prescription-strength topical anesthetic will be provided. This is self-applied prior to your laser or micro needling appointment according to the instructions given.
3. In-Office Numbing Application | 30 min $100. BOOK ONLINE
You may schedule a dedicated numbing application appointment prior to your laser or microneedling treatment. This allows appropriate time for the topical anesthetic to take full effect before your procedure begins.
