Ultra Laser
Ultra Laser uses fractional laser technology to resurface the skin's surface, improving tone, texture, and pigmentation in a single treatment. By creating controlled microscopic zones of treatment across the skin, it stimulates the body's natural renewal process while leaving surrounding tissue intact for faster healing. We offer Ultra Laser at our Port Moody and Abbotsford clinics for patients looking to refresh overall skin quality.
What Is Ultra Laser?
Ultra Laser is a fractional resurfacing treatment that targets a fraction of the skin's surface at a time, leaving the surrounding tissue untouched to support faster healing. This approach allows the treatment to address pigmentation, texture, and tone concerns while minimizing downtime compared to more aggressive resurfacing options. It is a versatile treatment suited to a range of skin concerns related to sun exposure and general skin aging.
What to Expect
A topical numbing cream is typically applied before treatment to improve comfort. The laser is passed over the treatment area in a controlled pattern, with most patients describing a warming or prickling sensation. Some redness, mild swelling, and skin flaking are normal in the days following treatment as the skin renews itself. Full results develop as the skin completes its natural healing cycle.
How Ultra Laser Works
The laser delivers energy to the skin in a fractional pattern, treating only a portion of the surface at a time while leaving the surrounding tissue intact. This controlled approach triggers the skin's natural healing response, prompting cell turnover and the replacement of damaged surface skin with healthier new tissue. Because untreated tissue remains between each treatment zone, the skin heals faster than with more aggressive resurfacing technologies, while still delivering meaningful improvement in tone and texture.
