The Aerolase Neo Elite is a next-generation, non-invasive laser rejuvenation treatment that rejuvenates the skin from the inside out—without damaging the surface with collagen-stimulating benefits. Unlike traditional laser resurfacing, which removes layers of skin, Neo Elite uses a powerful yet gentle 650-microsecond pulse to deeply target inflammation, pigmentation, acne, redness, and signs of aging—all with no downtime, pain, or risk to any skin tone. It’s a comprehensive solution for clearer, firmer, healthier skin that fits seamlessly into your routine.

  • Sun Damage and Age Spots
  • Hyperpigmentation and Discoloration Fine Lines and Wrinkles
  • Redness and Facial Flushing
  • Uneven Skin Tone or Texture
  • Enlarged Pores

Laser skin rejuvenation uses non-invasvie light-based energy to resurface the top layer of your skin and stimulate the production of collagen and elastin beneath the surface. This results in clearer, smoother, more youthful-looking skin with little to no downtime.

At INA Chicago, we use the Aerolase Neo Elite Laser, a trusted choice for early prevention and correction of visible skin aging. Treatments are safe for all skin types and can be easily integrated into your skincare regimen.

1. All-in-One Laser Powerhouse

The Neo Elite is FDA-cleared to treat over 30 skin concerns, replacing the need for multiple devices with a single, compact laser—ideal for acne, pigmentation, vascular issues, wrinkles, scars, and more. Powered by a 1064 nm Nd:YAG wavelength with ultra-short 650‑microsecond pulses, it delivers clinical-grade results while maintaining a small, clinic-friendly footprint.


2. Precision Meets Comfort

Its groundbreaking 650‑microsecond technology enables quick, deep energy delivery into skin chromophores (melanin, hemoglobin, and water) without harming surrounding tissue. As a result, treatments are warm yet virtually pain-free, require no cooling, anesthesia, or numbing, and feature no downtime—patients leave looking radiant, not red 


3. Inclusive for Every Skin Tone

Designed for all Fitzpatrick skin types I–VI, including darker and tanned skin, Neo Elite dramatically lowers risks of post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation—thanks to its 1064 nm wavelength and fast pulses, which bypass surface melanin for safe, effective treatments on deeper layers.


4. Transformative Results Across Concerns

  • Acne: Clinically shown to achieve up to 87% reduction in lesions by targeting bacteria, oil glands, and inflammation simultaneously 
  • Melasma & Hyperpigmentation: One of the only lasers to reliably treat both pigment and vascular components—studies reveal significant vessel and melanin reduction even after a single session
  • Rosacea & Vascular Conditions: Proven to improve redness, visible vessels, and inflammatory rosacea symptoms, with clinical trials reporting IGA/PGA improvements above 80 % 

5. Skin Rejuvenation at the Cellular Level

Beyond treating concerns, Neo Elite stimulates collagen and elastin regeneration via controlled dermal heating, improving skin texture, tone, firmness, and minimizing fine lines—without downtime. Used alongside injectables, it enhances volumizing and structural results, ensuring natural and long-lasting skin health benefits.

Do laser skin treatments hurt?

Discomfort is minimal. Most describe a warm, tingling feeling. Numbing cream is available to ensure your comfort.

How many treatments will I need?

We usually recommend 3–6 sessions spaced 3–4 weeks apart for best results. Maintenance treatments may be performed as needed.

How soon will I see results?

Visible improvements begin in 1–2 weeks, with cumulative benefits over time. Skin will continue to improve with each session.

Is there any downtime?

No formal downtime, though mild redness and flaking may occur for 2–5 days. You can resume most activities right away.

Can I wear makeup after treatment?

Yes — after 24 hours. Avoid heavy makeup until redness subsides and always use sun protection post-treatment.
