Revivo combines two specific laser wavelengths—erbium for skin resurfacing and YAG for vascular concerns. The Erbium laser creates controlled micro-injuries in the skin, stimulating collagen production and improving texture. In contrast, the YAG laser targets hemoglobin in vessels, causing them to collapse and then be naturally absorbed by the body. This dual approach allows simultaneous treatment of textural and vascular concerns, maximizing results while minimizing overall treatment time and recovery periods.
