How Does the UltraClear Laser Work?

UltraClear is the world’s first cold ablative fiber laser, creating microscopic channels at customizable depths to trigger the body’s natural healing response. This stimulates the production of collagen and elastin, improving your skin’s appearance with results that continue developing over time.

What Conditions Does UltraClear Address?

This versatile, all-in-one laser skin rejuvenation treatment can treat multiple skin issues during a single session. With its broad range of settings, UltraClear can address:

  • Scars
  • Fine lines and wrinkles
  • Dull skin
  • Sun damage and hyperpigmentation
  • Acne scars

Who Is a Good Candidate for UltraClear?

UltraClear is FDA-cleared and is safe for all skin types, including those with darker complexions. We typically recommend a series of treatments to achieve optimal results. Your provider will suggest the number of treatments needed during your personalized consultation.

Depending on your unique goals and preferences, we may recommend an alternative laser treatment, such as LaseMD Ultra™ or Halo®.

What To Expect During Your UltraClear Treatment and Recovery

UltraClear’s customizable settings allow our expert practitioners to target different depths according to your skin’s unique needs. Full-face treatments usually take around 15 minutes. Often referred to as a “cold laser,” UltraClear uses minimal heat, resulting in less discomfort and minimal thermal damage and bleeding. As a result, most patients experience a faster healing time.

Some redness and swelling may occur post-treatment. While you can resume normal activities immediately, plan on taking 2 to 3 days of social downtime. You may start seeing results in as little as two days. You’ll notice your skin’s appearance continues to improve as your skin produces new collagen, elastin, and hyaluronic acid.
