Redefine Your Skin’s Potential at Uplifted in Redondo Beach
Imagine giving your skin the ultimate reset — where resurfacing meets deep tissue rejuvenation in one powerful, transformative session. At Uplifted Medical Aesthetics in Redondo Beach, we’re bringing science and beauty together with our exclusive sandwich treatment with Erbium and Pixel8 — a cutting-edge duo that targets texture, tone, laxity, and even deep wrinkles.
Led by our aesthetic expert Hula Castellon, this revolutionary treatment layers two proven technologies to deliver results that go far beyond what a single modality can achieve. Whether you’re looking to refresh tired skin, fade acne scars, or turn back time on aging, this customized combination may be your ultimate solution.
⸻
What Is the Sandwich Treatment?
The sandwich treatment with Erbium and Pixel8 is a two-step process that layers:
- Erbium Fractional Laser Resurfacing
This ablative laser gently removes the top layers of damaged skin to reveal a smoother, clearer surface underneath. It stimulates collagen renewal and improves:
• Fine lines and wrinkles
• Pigmentation
• Sun damage
• Enlarged pores
• Texture irregularities
- Pixel8 Radiofrequency Microneedling
Immediately following the laser, we “sandwich” in RF microneedling to target deeper layers of the skin. This method uses tiny needles to deliver controlled heat energy beneath the skin, stimulating:
• Deep collagen remodeling
• Skin tightening
• Improved elasticity
• Long-term rejuvenation
Together, they create a “top-down and bottom-up” approach — hence the nickname “sandwich” — for total skin transformation.
⸻
Why Combine Erbium Laser with Pixel8 RF?
While each treatment alone can yield significant improvements, the synergy between the two is what truly sets this apart. The sandwich treatment with Erbium and Pixel8 works on multiple levels of the skin to maximize your results:
Benefit Erbium Laser Pixel8 RF Microneedling
1. Exfoliates surface damage
2. Stimulates collagen
3. Targets fine lines & texture
4. Treats deep wrinkles
5. Lifts & tightens sagging skin
6. Reduces pigmentation
7. Improves skin tone & clarity
This approach is like a facial power couple — one exfoliates and renews the surface, while the other strengthens the foundation.

The Science Behind the Glow
Erbium Fractional Laser
The Erbium YAG laser is known for precision and minimal downtime. Unlike CO2 lasers that can be aggressive and require lengthy recovery, Erbium fractional lasers offer a gentler yet effective resurfacing with less risk of hyperpigmentation — especially for patients with medium skin tones.
Pixel8 RF Microneedling
This FDA-cleared technology delivers bipolar radiofrequency through gold-plated microneedles. It’s fully customizable to treat different depths of the dermis, helping to rebuild skin structure from within. The Pixel8 also promotes long-term tightening, making it a fantastic partner for Erbium resurfacing.

Real Results: What You Can Expect
At Uplifted in Redondo Beach, patients who undergo the sandwich treatment with Erbium and Pixel8 report:
- Softer, smoother skin texture
- Reduced acne scars and sun spots
- Significant skin tightening around the cheeks, jawline, and neck
- Minimized pore size
- Radiant glow that keeps improving over time
Most patients notice visible improvement within 7–10 days, with collagen remodeling continuing for up to 3 months post-treatment.
⸻
Who’s a Good Candidate?
This treatment is ideal for:
• People in their 30s–60s looking to improve skin tone and firmness
• Those with acne scars, rough texture, or sun damage
• Patients who want a nonsurgical alternative to a facelift
• Individuals with early signs of aging or laxity
• Those with mild to moderate wrinkles, especially around the eyes and mouth
It’s also a great option for men and women who want to look refreshed — not frozen or overdone.

⸻
What Is the Treatment Process Like?
1. Consultation
We start with an in-depth consult and skin analysis. Hula reviews your goals, skin type, and lifestyle to build a personalized protocol.
2. Step 1: Erbium Laser Resurfacing
The treatment begins with a pass of the Erbium fractional laser to remove surface imperfections and stimulate collagen.
3. Step 2: Pixel8 RF Microneedling
Once the surface is prepped, we deliver Pixel8 RF energy deep into the dermis for enhanced tightening and smoothing.
4. Post-Treatment Recovery
Expect 3–7 days of mild redness, tightness, and light flaking. You’ll be glowing by week two.
5. Follow-Up & Maintenance
We recommend a series of 1–3 treatments spaced 4–6 weeks apart for optimal long-term results.

Post-Care Tips for Best Results
To protect your results and speed healing:
• Stay out of the sun (SPF 50+ is a must)
• Use a gentle cleanser and nourishing barrier cream
• Avoid exfoliants, actives, and makeup for 3–5 days
• Follow your aftercare kit from Uplifted
Your skin will feel tight and dry for a few days — that’s normal. By day 7, most people are wearing makeup and glowing.
⸻
What Makes This Better Than Other Treatments?
The sandwich treatment with Erbium and Pixel8 stands out because:
• It treats multiple skin layers at once
• It delivers faster, more dramatic results
• It has a lower risk of pigmentation vs. CO2 lasers
• There’s minimal downtime compared to aggressive resurfacing
• It’s fully customizable to your unique skin
While you could book Erbium and Pixel8 separately, combining them in the same session supercharges the results and reduces the number of visits.
