At Austin Regenerative Therapy (ART), we invest in technologies that genuinely move the needle for skin health, longevity, and confidence—not trends that fade. NOUVADerm™ is one of those technologies.
This advanced fractional laser allows us to target pigment, texture, and early signs of aging while simultaneously stimulating collagen and elastin production at a deeper level. The result is clearer, smoother, brighter skin with minimal downtime and results that continue to improve over time.
NOUVADerm fits seamlessly into our whole‑person, regenerative approach to aesthetics—supporting skin function, not just surface appearance.
What Is NOUVADerm™?
NOUVADerm™ is a non‑ablative fractional laser that uses a 1927 nm thulium wavelength to target water molecules in the skin. By delivering controlled thermal energy into the epidermis and superficial dermis, it stimulates the skin’s natural repair response, triggering neocollagenesis (new collagen formation) and dermal remodeling without aggressive injury.
Unlike older resurfacing lasers that rely on extensive tissue damage and prolonged recovery, NOUVADerm is designed to deliver meaningful results with a more refined, predictable healing process.
This makes it an ideal option for patients who want visible improvement without extended downtime or disruption to their lifestyle.
What Skin Concerns Can NOUVADerm Treat?
NOUVADerm is highly versatile and can be customized based on your skin biology and goals. At ART, we commonly use it to address:
- Fine lines and early wrinkles
- Uneven skin tone and texture
- Sun damage and age spots
- Freckles and café‑au‑lait macules
- Acne scars
- Epidermal and dermal pigmented lesions
- Dull or crepey skin
- Overall skin revitalization (NOUVA Glo protocol)
Because the laser targets water within the skin rather than melanin alone, NOUVADerm is considered safe for all skin types and tones when performed by trained medical professionals.
What to Expect During a NOUVADerm™ Treatment
Treatment time: approximately 15–30 minutes
Sensation: warmth or mild tingling during the procedure
Anesthetic: typically not required, though topical numbing may be used
Immediately after treatment, the skin may appear pink or lightly flushed. Over the next several days, you may experience micro‑crusting as pigmented cells rise to the surface and naturally shed.
This process is part of the skin’s renewal cycle and signals that deeper repair is underway.
NOUVADerm™ at ART: A Regenerative Strategy
At Austin Regenerative Therapy, lasers are never used in isolation.
NOUVADerm is often strategically paired with:
- PRX‑T33 collagen‑stimulating treatments
- Exosome or peptide‑based skin protocols
- Medical‑grade skincare
- Hormonal and metabolic optimization
- Fractional Radio Frequency (RF)
By addressing skin health from both the inside and outside, we create results that look natural, balanced, and long‑lasting—rather than over‑treated or artificial.

"Incredible experience working with Dr. Khanh and the whole team at ART!! I came in for a recurring shoulder injury that I've had for years and nothing has worked to date.

"Knee feels good today. A noticeable difference. PRP takes a while to kick in right? The shockwave or combo must have helped a lot."
- Kevin, 3 weeks post-acute knee injury
"I'm on the 12th day of the LDN. I swear I'm in a better mood. I did start working out a lot so I'm sure that's helping but I'm almost elated I'm in such a good mood. Just wanted to say thanks... Glad to be feeling some relief..."
