UltraLase: Unlock a New Level of Skin Perfection

UltraLase is an advanced skin resurfacing treatment that utilizes fractional laser technology to dramatically improve the appearance of your skin. Perfect for reducing wrinkles, scars, and uneven texture, UltraLase helps you achieve a smooth, rejuvenated complexion.

What Is UltraLase?

UltraLase is a non-surgical laser skin treatment that targets both the surface and deeper layers of the skin to address a variety of skin imperfections. Using fractional laser technology, it creates microscopic channels in the skin that trigger the body’s natural healing process. This stimulates the production of new collagen and elastin, which leads to smoother, firmer skin. UltraLase is effective for treating fine lines, wrinkles, acne scars, sun damage, and uneven skin tone. The treatment is safe and effective for a wide range of skin types, offering noticeable results with minimal downtime.

What are Pigmented Lesions?

Pigmented lesions arise from a wide range of natural and environmental sources, including sun damage, genetic predisposition, and the aging process. They may also manifest as side effects of medical procedures. Pigmented lesions can vary in size, shape, and prevalence in a given area. Pigmented lesions include birthmarks, age spots, freckles, hyperpigmentation, actinic keratoses (pre-cancerous lesions) and pigmented nevi.

How Does UltraLase Work?

UltraLase uses a fractional laser to create tiny, controlled injuries in the skin’s surface, which stimulate the body’s healing response. As the skin heals, collagen and elastin production are increased, which helps to tighten the skin, reduce wrinkles, and improve texture. The laser’s ability to target specific skin layers makes it highly effective for treating a variety of concerns, from fine lines to deeper scars. Over the course of several weeks, the skin continues to regenerate, revealing smoother, more youthful-looking skin. Each session is tailored to your unique skin needs, ensuring that you receive personalized care for optimal results.

Treatment of darker skin is more challenging due to the higher concentration of melanin in the skin as a competing chromophore (color); in those cases, the UltraLase gives us a unique safety profile. Once the pigment is broken up, the lymphatic system can naturally remove and discard the pigment particles.
