LaseMD Ultra is an innovative laser technology that offers a comprehensive approach to skin rejuvenation. By targeting various layers of the skin, this non-ablative fractional laser can address a wide range of skin concerns, often providing superior results compared to other treatments.
Keep reading to learn 10 skin concerns that LaseMD Ultra can address better than other treatments!
1. Fine Lines and Wrinkles
As you age, your skin’s natural collagen production decreases, leading to the formation of fine lines and wrinkles. LaseMD Ultra stimulates collagen production, plumping the skin and reducing the appearance of these lines.
This targeted approach, combined with the laser’s ability to penetrate deeper layers of the skin, often yields more significant results than topical treatments or superficial laser resurfacing.
Jeff So, PA-C, shares:
“What makes LaseMD Ultra particularly effective is its ability to stimulate natural collagen production at multiple skin depths. It is also exciting that LaseMD Ultra is safe for all skin types while being highly effective in tightening skin and removing pigment.”
2. Sun Damage and Uneven Skin Tone
Excessive sun exposure can lead to hyperpigmentation, age spots, and an uneven skin tone. LaseMD Ultra effectively targets these areas of discoloration, promoting a more even and radiant complexion.
Unlike traditional lasers, LaseMD Ultra’s fractional technology minimizes the risk of post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation, particularly in individuals with darker skin tones.
3. Enlarged Pores
Enlarged pores can be a common concern, especially for those with oily or acne-prone skin. LaseMD Ultra’s precise laser energy can target and shrink enlarged pores, resulting in a smoother, more refined skin texture. The treatment can help regulate future oil production, further improving the appearance of pores.
4. Acne Scars
Acne scars can leave behind unsightly pits and blemishes. LaseMD Ultra’s ability to stimulate collagen production helps to fill in these scars, reducing their appearance and improving overall skin texture.
Deeper acnes scars can be significantly reduced with a combination treatment of LaseMD Ultra and additional procedures. Your MFC physician can assess your acne scars and suggest the best treatment combination for you.
5. Dullness and Lack of Radiance
Over time, environmental factors and aging can lead to a dull, lackluster complexion. LaseMD Ultra gently exfoliates the skin, removing dead skin cells and revealing a brighter, more youthful appearance. The laser also stimulates cell turnover, promoting a healthy glow.
6. Stretch Marks
While LaseMD Ultra cannot completely eliminate stretch marks, it can significantly improve their appearance. By stimulating collagen production and promoting skin rejuvenation, the treatment can help reduce the redness and depth of stretch marks, making them less noticeable.
7. Loss of Elasticity
As you age, your skin loses elasticity, leading to sagging and wrinkles. LaseMD Ultra’s fractional laser technology stimulates collagen and elastin production, improving skin firmness and reducing the appearance of sagging skin. This can help restore a more youthful and lifted appearance.
8. Melasma
Melasma is a common skin condition characterized by hyperpigmentation, often appearing as brown patches on the face. LaseMD Ultra’s targeted approach can help reduce the appearance of melasma by breaking down excess melanin and promoting even skin tone.
9. Fine Lines Around the Eyes
The delicate skin around the eyes is particularly susceptible to fine lines and wrinkles. LaseMD Ultra’s gentle yet effective treatment can help reduce these lines, improving the appearance of the eye area.
10. Neck Wrinkles
The neck is often neglected in skincare routines, but it can also show signs of aging. LaseMD Ultra can be used on the neck to improve the appearance of wrinkles and promote a smoother, more youthful look.
Advantages of LaseMD Ultra
LaseMD Ultra offers several advantages over previously existing laser technology:
Minimal Downtime: LaseMD Ultra is a minimally invasive procedure with minimal downtime. Most patients can resume their normal activities within a few days.
Safe for All Skin Types: LaseMD Ultra is safe for most skin types, including darker skin tones.
Customizable Treatment: The treatment can be customized to address specific skin concerns and individual needs.
Long-lasting Results: LaseMD Ultra can provide long-lasting results, with improvements in skin texture, tone, and overall appearance.
Is LaseMD Ultra Right for You?
To determine if LaseMD Ultra is the right treatment for you, it’s essential to consult with a qualified physician like those at Moy-Fincher-Chipps. They can assess your skin condition, discuss your goals, and recommend a personalized treatment plan.
During a consultation, your doctor will review your medical history, discuss any concerns or questions you may have, and explain the benefits and potential side effects of LaseMD Ultra. They will also provide you with realistic expectations for your results.
Kaitie McKeever, RN explains:
“The customizable nature of LaseMD Ultra allows us to precisely target each patient’s specific concerns. We can adjust the treatment parameters to achieve optimal results whether we’re addressing sun damage, texture issues, or signs of aging.”
The Importance of Aftercare
Proper aftercare is crucial for optimizing the results of LaseMD Ultra and minimizing any potential side effects. Following your treatment, your doctor will provide specific instructions on how to care for your skin.
Generally, you’ll need to keep the treated area clean and moisturized, avoid sun exposure, and use gentle skincare products for a period of time.
Potential Side Effects of LaseMD Ultra
While LaseMD Ultra is a safe and well-tolerated procedure, some common side effects may occur, including:
- Redness: This is a common side effect that typically resolves within a few days.
- Swelling: Mild swelling may occur, especially in the treated area.
- Dryness: Your skin may feel dry after treatment.
- Temporary Pigmentation Changes: Some patients may experience temporary changes in skin color, such as hyperpigmentation or hypopigmentation.
These side effects are usually mild and temporary. However, it’s important to follow post-treatment instructions to minimize any discomfort and promote optimal healing.
LaseMD Ultra in Combination with Other Treatments
LaseMD Ultra can be combined with other treatments to achieve more comprehensive results. At Moy-Fincher-Chipps, combining treatments for even better results is our specialty. For example, it can be paired with injectables like Botox or dermal fillers to address dynamic wrinkles and volume loss, or PRP to promote faster healing and enhanced rejuvenation.
