What it is

NouvaDerm is the newest laser at Science Babe Skincare, and one of the most versatile resurfacing lasers available. Its 1927 nm thulium wavelength delivers energy in a precise grid of tiny treatment zones, leaving the skin between them untouched so you heal faster while new collagen and elastin build.

Kirsten can switch between non-ablative, sub-ablative, and ablative modes on the same device. That means your treatment is dialed to your skin and your goals, from a gentle glow refresh to deeper resurfacing. And it is not just for your face. NouvaDerm treats skin from head to toe.

What it treats

Benefits

Safe for every skin tone – Suitable for all Fitzpatrick skin types I–VI.
Head to toe – Face, neck, chest, hands, arms, legs, and scalp.
Three modes in one – Treatment intensity is customized to you, not a preset menu.
Fast coverage – A large treatment spot covers bigger areas in less time.

What to expect

Treatment	Quick sessions with topical numbing for comfort.
Downtime	Depends on the mode. Lighter treatments mean a few days of redness and a sandpaper feel as skin renews. Deeper resurfacing takes longer. Kirsten will walk you through it first.
Results	Brighter, smoother skin often shows within a couple of weeks, and collagen keeps building for months.
Series	Most goals call for a short series. Your plan will spell it out.

Who it's for

Anyone with sun damage, pigment, melasma, fine lines, or dull, uneven skin who wants real resurfacing tailored to their skin.

Questions

Is NouvaDerm safe for darker skin?

Yes. NouvaDerm is suitable for all Fitzpatrick skin types and tones.

Can NouvaDerm help melasma?

It can improve the appearance of melasma as part of a plan that includes home care and daily sun protection. Melasma is managed rather than cured, so Kirsten builds a long-term strategy with you.
