What Is Contour TRL?

Contour TRL is an erbium:YAG laser that removes the entire top layer of skin (ablative), unlike the HALO® fractional laser that treats pinpoint columns of skin. Treatments provide the following main benefits:

  • Generation of healthy new skin cells for an even, radiant complexion
  • Increased collagen and elastin for improved texture, elasticity, and firmness

These deep resurfacing treatments may delay the need for a facelift, neck lift, or other plastic surgery procedure.

What Does Contour TRL Treat?

Contour TRL improves the skin’s texture, typically on the face and neck, by treating the following concerns:

  • Deep to shallow lines and wrinkles
  • Rough, uneven texture
  • Scars from acne, surgery, and injuries
  • Excess pigmentation, such as freckles and age spots
  • Actinic keratoses (pre-cancerous lesions)
  • Enlarged pores

If you want to address redness and discoloration, such as sun spots and freckles, consider BBL® HEROic™ or Cutera® Excel® V treatments in addition to or instead of Contour TRL. Patients pursuing plastic surgery for a C-section scar can benefit from further scar refinement using Contour TRL.

Is Contour TRL the Same as CO2 Laser?

While both are resurfacing lasers, Contour TRL is an erbium:YAG laser that is gentler than a CO2 laser. It requires shorter downtime for the same level of resurfacing and offers more control over treatment depth.

Does Contour TRL Hurt?

To minimize discomfort, we use topical numbing cream for light treatments and local anesthetic for deeper treatments.
