how does LaseMD ultra work?
ULTRA is a 1927 nm wavelength laser which resurfaces the skin in the epidermis and dermis.
ULTRA targets water instead of pigment, resulting in a more even treatment. It is less likely to cause unintentional burns than IPL which targets pigment. Thus it is safe for all skin types.
ULTRA causes non-ablative, microscopic injuries which stimulates new collagen production, and has a fast recovery period.
What is the Ultra treatment like?
Patients can expect mild redness after the treatment, but you look great! You don’t have to worry about taking time off from work or hiding at home for an extended recovery time. You can wear 100% tinted mineral sunscreen right away to reduce the appearance of redness - our favorite is EltaMD UV Elements.
Your provider at Rejuve Medspa may apply numbing cream prior to treatment depending on the settings and goals for your treatment. For the “Glo and Go” treatment, no numbing medication is required.
Patients describe the Ultra treatment as a warm, tingling sensation which may vary. The treatment time may range from 10-20 minutes or longer depending on how much area is being treated.
Immediately following the treatment, you will notice some redness which will lessen over the next day or so.
The following 5-6 days, your skin will have a dry, sandpaper-like texture. This is normal and will resolve as your skin exfoliates, revealing fresher, clearer skin.
Clarity II Laser with Ultra Laser
Clarity II can be pared with LaseMD Ultra Laser for enhanced reduction of unwanted pigment, resulting in a brighter, smoother complexion.
HEALITE with Ultra Laser
Although the healing time with the Ultra Laser is very quick, HEALITE can further speed recovery and enhance collagen stimulation to improve overall results.
Exosomes with Ultra Laser
Exosome Regenerative Complex promotes skin cell proliferation by up to 80%, resulting in an increase in the Elastin amount of human dermal fibroblasts up to 300%. The Ultra Laser creates tiny micro channels on the skin allowing for the absorption of Exosomes to both speed recovery and boost the rejuvenating benefits of this laser treatment.
