What is the Lutronic ULTRA Laser?

The Lutronic ULTRALaser is a quick and virtually painless treatment to address sun damage, pigmentation, texture, and tone. As a non-ablative thulium laser, it helps rebuild healthy, new skin across all areas of the body without damaging the top layers of the skin. Even still, it is able to penetrate the deeper layers of the skin for maximum results. This is one of the reasons why it’s considered so gentle and requires little downtime. You’ll notice that as new skin cells are produced, your skin will appear brighter, tighter, and smoother for an overall more youthful appearance.

What concerns can Lutronic ULTRA Laser treat?

The Lutronic ULTRA Laser can be used anywhere on the face and body. It offers many benefits, including:

  • Improved acne scarring
  • Minimized fine lines and wrinkles
  • Diminished brown spots
  • Lightened stretch marks
  • Rebuilt healthy skin

What should I expect during Lutronic ULTRA treatment?

Lutronic ULTRA Laser is a quick and easy rejuvenation treatment that can be performed during your lunch break. Your experience depends on the laser setting that is recommended to address your skin concerns. Over the course of a 20-minute treatment, you will experience a warm feeling, which might result in a flushed look overnight (that resolves itself the next day). Our patients find this laser to be quite comfortable and painless, which is why it is one of our most popular laser treatments.

What’s recovery like?

There is minimal downtime associated with the Lutronic ULTRA resurfacing laser. Downtime ranges from a few hours of mild redness like a sunburn to a few days of flushed skin. Regardless, you can return to normal activity and apply makeup 24 hours after treatment.

How many Lutronic ULTRA Laser treatments will I need?

Results are noticeable after just one treatment of the Lutronic ULTRA. The number of treatments needed depends on the specific skin goals that the patient is looking to achieve. Many find that 3+ sessions per year can help preserve the treatment results.

Am I a good candidate for Lutronic ULTRA?

Lutronic ULTRAis an entirely customizable treatment for anyone struggling with sun damage, acne scarring, or fine lines and wrinkles, thanks to its various intensity settings. Unlike most laser treatments, Lutronic ULTRAis safe for all skin types and colors, including tanned skin and dark skin tones—which means it can be used at any time of year.

Common Misconceptions of Lutronic ULTRA

You'll need multiple treatments.

Most treatments only take one session. The short recovery time also means patients can typically resume their normal activities right away.

Lutronic Ultra only works on certain complexions.

This therapy has been demonstrated to produce benefits across a range of skin types.

You can't get Lutronic Ultra while I'm on acne medication.

You may still be a candidate for non-ablative laser treatment, but it depends on which medication you take.

All laser treatment takes a long time to heal because it removes so much skin tissue.

Not every laser resurfacing treatment is the same. Unlike ablative alternatives, non-ablative resurfacing doesn't remove dermal tissue, so recovery times are minimal.

Contraindications of Lutronic Ultra

Non-ablative laser skin resurfacing works well for many people, but some aren't good candidates. You should avoid this type of treatment if you currently suffer from:

  • An active bacterial or fungal infection
  • Active psoriasis
  • Active lichen planus
  • Active neoplastic disease

Other contraindications for laser resurfacing include:

  • Having taken Amnesteem/isotretinoin — an acne medication — within the past 12 months
  • Having an autoimmune disease or a weak immune system
  • Having a connective tissue disease
  • Having darker or extremely tanned skin
  • Having a history of keloid scars
  • Having a history of ectropion, or outward-facing eyelid
  • Being pregnant or currently breastfeeding

You might not be a good candidate for laser resurfacing if you've already received similar procedures. Talk to your doctor about your medical history to learn whether this procedure is right for you.

Risks and Side Effects of Lutronic Ultra

Lutronic Ultra is designed to be a minimal-risk procedure. However, all laser treatments carry some risk of:

  • Redness
  • Itching, swelling, or pain
  • Bacterial, viral, or fungal infections, including flareups of already-present herpes virus
  • Scarring
  • Permanent skin color changes, particularly in people with darker skin tones

How Much Does Lutronic Ultra Cost in Pittsburgh, PA, and Columbus, OH?

Lutronic Ultra costs vary, so it's impossible to predict the price without consulting each patient individually. However, some determining factors include how much of your skin you'll need to treat and the severity of the blemishes you want to remove. Talk to us about financing options for Lutronic Ultra in Columbus, OH, or Pittsburgh, PA.

Does Insurance Help Pay for Lutronic Ultra?

Your insurance provider may include coverage for laser resurfacing in your policy. But there's a small catch.

In most cases, your procedure will need to be designated as medically necessary, such as if you're trying to remove accident scars. With that in mind, your care team must provide complete documentation and a thorough explanation of why you need the treatment.

What Makes Lutronic Ultra Difference From Alternative Treatments?

Lutronic Ultra is a non-ablative fractional laser treatment. It's less intense than ablative laser treatments, so recovery times are usually shorter.

This skin rejuvenation treatment doesn't require you to take medication. Some patients, however, may benefit from topical steroid creams that reduce swelling. You also don't need to make big changes to your skincare routine, although you should wear sunscreen to limit further environmental damage.

How Long Will the Results Last?

Results will appear soon after your first treatment, with full results appearing as collagen levels increase from three to six months post-treatment. In most cases, results are long-lasting. Maintenance treatment sessions will help to prolong your rejuvenation indefinitely.
