Glowing, Healthy Skin With Minimal Downtime
LaseMD Ultra™ is an FDAcleared 1927nm nonablative fractional Thulium laser that safely treats all skin types with minimal downtime. It’s one of the most powerful devices in its class — delivering brighter, smoother, healthierlooking skin with little disruption to your daily routine.
Whether you want to refresh dull skin, reduce sun damage, soften fine lines, or improve texture, LaseMD Ultra offers noticeable results with a comfortable treatment experience.
LaseMD Ultra creates microscopic thermal channels in the skin to stimulate collagen, accelerate cell turnover, and target pigmentation — all without removing the outer layer of skin. This means:
- No significant downtime
- Safe for all skin tones (including darker skin)
- Fast treatments (10–20 minutes for the face)
- A natural, radiant glow that continues improving for months
- Brightens dull or uneven skin
- Reduces sun damage, age spots, and freckles
- Softens fine lines and smooths texture
- Minimizes enlarged pores
- Improves melasma and pigmentation
- Helps fade mild acne scars
- Stimulates collagen for firmer, healthier skin
- Safe yearround for all skin types
- Customizable intensity — from a gentle “glow” to deeper rejuvenation
Results & Maintenance
Most clients notice a visible glow and smoother texture within 1–2 weeks. Collagen continues to rebuild for 1–3 months, improving:
- Tone
- Firmness
- Radiance
- Overall skin quality
Results typically last 6-12 months with good skincare and sun protection and continue to improve for months thanks to ongoing collagen production. Many clients maintain their glow with 1-3 initial treatments spaced 4-6 weeks apart, followed by annual or semi-annual maintenance.

Perfect Pairing: OligioX + LaseMD Ultra
LaseMD Ultra pairs exceptionally well with our OligioX Radiofrequency treatment for comprehensive face rejuvenation in a single visit or treatment series.
- OligioX provides deep structural tightening and lifting of the jawline and jowls through radiofrequency energy.
- LaseMD Ultra works on the skin’s surface (face, neck, & chest) to brighten tone, smooth texture, reduce pigmentation (sunspots, melasma, freckles), minimize pores, and stimulate additional collagen for an overall glowing, refreshed appearance.
Together, you get the firming and contouring benefits of OligioX plus LaseMD Ultra’s improvements in skin clarity, radiance, and evenness – delivering more dramatic, natural-looking results than either treatment alone.

How does the procedure actually work?
For LaseMD Ulta to stimulate collagen and elastin, your skin is cleansed and prepped, and the laser handpiece is gently rolled across the area, creating a warm, prickling sensation that most clients find very tolerable.
The laser portion takes about 10–20 minutes, and we finish with targeted serums and moisturizer. You may have mild redness afterward, but you can return to normal activities right away.
How many treatments will I need?
Most clients see great results with 1–3 sessions spaced 4–6 weeks apart. Maintenance once or twice a year keeps your skin glowing.
How long do results last?
Most clients enjoy smoother, brighter skin for 6–12 months or longer with good skincare and sun protection.
Is it safe for darker skin tones?
Yes — LaseMD Ultra is safe and effective for all skin types, including deeper skin tones.
Is LaseMD Ultra painful?
Most describe it as comfortable, with only mild prickling heat. It’s much gentler than traditional ablative lasers. Numbing cream is applied for maximal comfort.
How long does recovery take?
Mild redness will appear for 24–48 hours. You’ll likely experience a temporary “sandpaper” texture for 3–7 days
Can I combine LaseMD Ultra with OligioX?
Absolutely. This is one of our most popular combinations for tightening + resurfacing in a single visit.
Both are comfortable, have minimal to no downtime, and are safe for all skin types year-round. Many clients choose this powerful combination for total skin revitalization.
This non-ablative fractional laser uses energy to create tiny microchannels just below the skin surface. By inflicting controlled damage on skin, these microchannels kick-start the body’s natural wound healing response and, in the process, boost production of collagen and elastin at the cellular level. For even better results, the microchannels created by the laser can also act like a delivery system straight to the deeper layers of skin. As a result, any serums layered on immediately after treatment, such as those that contain antioxidants, peptides, or growth factors can better penetrate, thereby maximizing their efficacy.
You’re a good candidate if you want to minimize the appearance of wrinkles, hyperpigmentation, and other signs of skin damage. It doesn’t matter what your skin color is. The Ultra can treat all skin types and tones.
This device is also great for men because it is comfortable, has minimal downtime, and can treat all the sun damage they have accumulated while living here in Arizona.

- Two to three treatment sessions are recommended for the best results, though many patients opt for follow-up sessions every 6-12 months to maintain those effects. You will notice results after your first treatment, and continued improvement after completing your customized LaseMD ULTRA treatment series.
- You’ll need annual maintenance treatments to keep up your results (though you may be able to extend them by minimizing sun damage).
A treatment typically takes 30 to 60 minutes, depending on the size of the area.
First, your skin will be cleansed, then we will apply a topical anesthetic to the treatment area. Once you’re fully numb, (about 20 minutes), you’ll put on eye protection.
Then the LaseMD handpiece will be “rolled” across the treatment area. Its laser energy will penetrate the dermal layers via microchannels. You’ll feel tingling, and possibly some mild discomfort, depending on the intensity level of your treatment
This takes about 20 minutes.
- After your treatment, we may apply topical serums with antioxidants and other potent ingredients, which will penetrate into the lower layers of your skin via the microchannels. We may also apply a moisturizer, since the heat from the laser tends to dry out skin.
- Total time in the office for a face and neck is about 1-1.25 hours, and the treatment is quick and comfortable
- The treatment itself typically lasts 20 minutes.
Yes, depending on your skin concerns and your skin type.
- LaseMD Glow is a gentle option for treating acne and improves tone and texture.
- LaseMD Refine, the next step up, treats sun damage, such as sun spots, hyperpigmentation, and fine lines.
- LaseMD ULTRA is powerful enough to treat acne scarring, wrinkles, and mild laxity.
The downtime associated with LaseMD ULTRA depends on what type of treatment you have performed. For those with melasma and those desiring a light treatment for a slight glow, the downtime is very minimal. For those targeting sun damage, lines, and wrinkles, downtime is usually a few hours of pinkness and mild swelling, followed by sandpaper like skin and small brown dots “coffee grounds” for no more than 7 days post treatment.
Because the laser beams bypass the surface of the skin and leave it intact, there is very minimal risk of infection and irritation the next day after treatment. You can resume your makeup and most of your skincare routine the following day. There is no bleeding, blistering, or scabbing. There can be a sunburn-like sensation for up to an hour following treatment; otherwise, LaseMD ULTRA is a comfortable and well-tolerated treatment. Because the surface layer is left intact, there’s minimal downtime after a LaseMD treatment. There’s also no risk of bleeding, blistering, burning, or scabbing.
While you’ll be able to go about your normal activities, you may want to take a few days to a week of social downtime, depending on the intensity level of your LaseMD treatment plan.
- LaseMD Glow: You can expect a few hours of redness, similar to that of a mild sunburn.
- LaseMD Refine: Redness can last up to three days.
- Light flaking is possible.
- LaseMD ULTRA: You’ll have five days to a week of redness, likely with some flaking. Resist the urge to pick off the flakes.
There’s not much to do by way of aftercare, other than keeping your skin moisturized and protected from the sun.
You’ll see the most improvement from your treatment for six months, as new collagen and elastin develops, and your results should last about a year. After that, the benefits will start to taper off.
You can prolong the effects of your treatment by using good skin care, including daily SPF of 30 or more.
