NouvaDerm laser at Rio Glow
NOUVADerm™ is an advanced 1927nm Thulium fractional laser designed for comprehensive skin resurfacing and restoration. As a 4th-generation platform, it uniquely combines non‑ablative, sub‑ablative, and ablative laser technologies into one powerful system — allowing us to precisely tailor treatments to your skin type, goals, and preferred downtime.
Using fractional laser energy, NOUVADerm™ delivers controlled microthermal zones (MTZs) that specifically target water within the skin. These micro‑injuries trigger your body’s natural healing response, leading to:
What it helps with
- Boosted collagen and elastin production for firmer, smoother skin
- Reduced pigmentation and discoloration for a more even tone
- Improved texture and hydration with restored elasticity
- Gentle resurfacing that preserves surrounding tissue for faster healing

Common questions about NouvaDerm laser
Is NOUVADerm™ laser worth it?
Yes — NOUVADerm™ offers a versatile, advanced 1927 nm Thulium fractional laser system that combines non‑ablative, sub‑ablative and ablative treatment modes in one device. It treats multiple skin concerns — pigmentation, fine lines, texture, acne scars, stretch marks — with less downtime compared to traditional full ablative lasers. If your goal is noticeable skin renewal and you're working with a qualified provider, it can absolutely be worth it.
How many NOUVADerm™ treatments do you need?
While some clients may see improvement after just one session, optimal results often require a series of treatments. For many resurfacing lasers similar to this, a “3‑4 sessions spaced 4‑6 weeks apart” protocol is common. Because NOUVADerm™ allows varying depths of treatment (light refresh vs deeper resurfacing), the number will depend on your skin condition, goals, and selected downtime. Your provider at Rio Glow Aesthetics & Wellness will create a custom plan.
What are the side effects of NOUVADerm™ laser?
Common side effects include:
- Mild redness, swelling, a sensation like a mild sunburn.
- Temporary increased skin sensitivity and mild flaking/peeling (especially for deeper settings).
- Rare but possible: temporary pigmentation changes (especially if post‑care or sun protection is inadequate) or burns if not done properly.
Overall, the risk is lower when treatments are done by experienced providers and appropriate aftercare is followed.
Is NOUVADerm™ painful?
Most patients report minimal discomfort. They describe sensations like warmth, light tingling, or snapping — typically very tolerable when a topical numbing cream is applied. For deeper treatment settings, more sensation is possible, but pain is generally manageable with numbing and cooling protocols.

I'm so glad I was introduced at the Botox party! Ready to schedule my next appointment! Great and punctual service!
Amazing service and results! I can't wait to come back for my next tox and RF needling! My skin feels so rejuvenated! thank you!
I had an outstanding experience from start to finish. The atmosphere was serene and inviting, a perfect escape from the hustle and bustle of everyday life.
I have been coming to Tathiana consistently since April 2025 and highly recommend her. She is an RN and extremely knowledgeable about facial anatomy and muscles, which is very important to me when it comes to injectables.
I had such a great experience getting my Botox here! From the moment I sat down for my consultation, Tathiana took her time to really understand what I wanted and what my goals were.
The staff is super friendly and knowledgeable! I absolutely love learning about all the ways to help my body work for me! I have had the IV drip multiple times now.
