At Vitality Aesthetic Solutions, we believe skin rejuvenation should be about more than simply looking younger.
Years of Florida sunshine can leave behind invisible damage long before skin cancer develops. While many laser treatments focus primarily on cosmetic improvement, VitaGlo™, performed with our advanced NouvaDerm 1927 nm Thulium Fractional Laser, is designed to rejuvenate sun-damaged skin while treating the entire field of damaged tissue.
Patients love VitaGlo because it can improve:
Uneven pigmentation
Sun spots
Fine lines
Rough texture
Enlarged pores
Early photoaging
Actinic keratoses (sun-induced precancerous lesions)
Overall skin quality
Beyond these cosmetic benefits, emerging research suggests that treating chronically sun-damaged skin with non-ablative fractional thulium laser technology may also help reduce the development of future nonmelanoma skin cancers in appropriately selected patients. (PubMed)

Every day your skin is exposed to ultraviolet (UV) radiation. Over time, this causes DNA injury within skin cells. Initially this damage is invisible.
Eventually it appears as:
Many patients have widespread microscopic sun damage extending beyond what can be seen with the naked eye.
Dermatologists often refer to this as field cancerization.
Rather than treating one visible spot at a time, field-directed therapies address the entire area of chronically damaged skin.
Actinic keratoses (AKs) are rough, scaly patches caused by years of cumulative sun exposure.
Although not every AK becomes cancer, they are considered precancerous lesions because some can progress into squamous cell carcinoma if left untreated. Treating AKs is an important part of maintaining long-term skin health. (Cynthia Golomb, MD)

One of the most exciting developments in laser medicine is growing evidence that fractional thulium laser treatments may improve long-term skin health in addition to producing outstanding cosmetic results.
Researchers have increasingly studied how treating chronically sun-damaged skin may reduce the burden of precancerous lesions and potentially decrease future non-melanoma skin cancers in selected patients.
Although research is ongoing, these findings are changing how physicians think about laser resurfacing.
Instead of viewing laser treatment only as a cosmetic procedure, many experts now recognize its role in comprehensive skin health.
Our NouvaDerm 1927 nm Thulium Laser creates thousands of microscopic treatment zones beneath the skin surface.
Because healthy surrounding tissue remains intact, healing is rapid while stimulating:
Cellular turnover
Collagen remodeling
Removal of damaged pigment
Healthier epidermal regeneration
This process improves skin quality while replacing damaged skin with healthier new tissue.
A growing body of research supports the use of 1927 nm non-ablative fractional thulium lasers for treatment of sun-damaged skin.
In one study published in Dermatologic Surgery, researchers followed patients with a previous history of facial basal cell or squamous cell carcinoma.
They found:
Patients treated with non-ablative fractional laser developed approximately half as many subsequent facial keratinocyte cancers compared with matched controls (20.9% vs. 40.4%).
New cancers also developed later in laser-treated patients than in untreated patients. (PubMed)
While additional prospective studies are needed, these findings suggest that laser treatment may become an important component of comprehensive sun-damage management for selected patients.
More recent clinical research evaluating the 1927 nm thulium fractional laser demonstrated:
Significant reduction in actinic keratosis counts
Improved overall photodamage
Increased dermal thickness
Improved collagen remodeling
Histologic improvement in sun-damaged skin
Excellent safety profile and tolerability (PMC)
These findings reinforce why thulium laser technology has become one of the most exciting advances in modern skin rejuvenation.
VitaGlo™ may be an excellent option if you:
* VitaGlo™ is not a treatment for active skin cancer and is not a substitute for regular dermatologic skin examinations.

Most patients experience mild redness and a sandpaper-like texture for several days, followed by gradual improvement as the skin renews itself.
Many patients notice improvement after one session, but a series of treatments often provides the best cosmetic and skin health benefits. Your provider will recommend a plan based on your goals and degree of sun damage.
No. VitaGlo™ complements—but does not replace—routine dermatologic or physician skin examinations. Any suspicious or changing lesion should be evaluated promptly.
The NouvaDerm Thulium platform can be used across a wide range of skin types when appropriate treatment parameters are selected. During your consultation, we will determine whether VitaGlo™ is the best option for your skin.
