Improve Skin Texture and Appearance with LaseMD Ultra™
Whether you're looking for light resurfacing or deeper treatment, LaseMD Ultra is the perfect addition to your skincare routine! LaseMD is different from most resurfacing lasers. It uses a non-ablative, fractionated approach that can be fully customizable from mild to aggressive to achieve your skin goals.
Consider ULTRA™ when you want to:
- Reduce the appearance of fine lines
- Eliminate irregular pigmentations
- Restore a more youthful glow to skin that has suffered moderate sun damage
With almost no downtime, consistently amazing results, and the fact that it works on all skin types, there are plenty of reasons so many choose LaseMD in San Antonio.
How does LaseMD Ultra work?
The LaseMD system is ideal for improving and maintaining skin. Its magnetic roller system allows it to finish a complete treatment in fewer than 10 minutes with virtually no pain or downtime.
It uses a gentle but effective non-ablative laser that targets the water molecules in the skin, creating tiny heated zones using 20 Watts of power. This tells the body to speed up the generation and replacement of skin cells. Fractionated lasers disperse laser heat across a surface, allowing experts like Dr. Bucay to target even notable skin irregularities without causing too much heat to damage the skin. Increasing the skin's permeability allows this laser to access cells deep under the surface without abrasive methods.

What should I expect during the treatment?
Dr. Bucay examines your skin and discusses your image goals before customizing a personalized LaseMD treatment plan to meet those goals. After adjusting to the appropriate settings, Dr. Bucay passes the LaseMD Ultra device over the skin, targeting treatment areas. A session can take five to 20 minutes, depending on how large the treatment area is and how deep treatments need to go.
How Does the Treatment Feel?
You will feel some heat and tingling as the laser passes over the skin, but the discomfort is minimal, especially compared to more ablative treatments. Depending on the depth of treatment, a numbing cream may be applied before the procedure to maximize your comfort.
How Long Is Downtime?
After a treatment session, you may have mild redness and facial warmth but can resume your normal activities immediately. Because LaseMD encourages cellular regeneration, you may notice increased redness for five to seven days. However, almost all of it will subside by the following day. It's okay to wear, which easily covers it.
Are There Any Side Effects?
The only side effects are mild redness and a feeling of warmth during and for one to three hours after treatment.
How Long Before I See Results?
Depending on the depth of treatment, healing time can last up to a week, but most clients see optimal results within 2-5 days and after just one treatment, especially if you're on a maintenance regimen.
How Many Treatments Will I Need?
To maintain a youthful glow and prevent future skin damage, monthly treatments are recommended as a complement to your skincare routine. Your provider will work with you to find the best treatment regimen based on the results you are trying to achieve.
Who Is a Good Candidate?
A good candidate has mild to moderate skin pigment or texture issues they'd like to correct to achieve their desired image. This candidate can achieve more lasting results by eating a healthy diet and maintaining a good skincare routine, including monthly sessions.
