LaseMD Ultra is a non-ablative fractional laser to treat a wide range of skin concerns: fine lines, hyperpigmentation, sun damage, and skin medical conditions such as Actinic Keratosis. It was developed by Lutronic, a leading developer of intelligent energy-based medical devices.

The treatments are comfortable with no downtime, it is also at a lower cost compared to other laser treatments. Gentle, customizable for multiple areas, and suitable all year round.

What To Expect

• A numbing cream will be applied prior to the session.
• After 30-45 minutes the session begins. You will feel some heat and tingling as the laser is passed over the skin. The number of passes and procedure time will depend on the depth of the treatment, lasting anywhere from 5-30 minutes.
• A face serum/ face mask can be applied right after the procedure to soothe the skin and maximize its efficacy.
• Some redness is expected immediately after the treatment, optimal results are expected to be visible within 2-5 days but healing time can last from 1-6 days depending on the depth of the treatment and the patient skin condition.
• Treatments can be scheduled on a monthly basis and you can see results from the first session. The frequency of treatments will vary from patient to patient and it will depend on an individual’s goal.
