ultra
Precision fractional laser resurfacing for renewed texture, tone, and pigment improvement.
Lutronic ULTRA is a non-ablative fractional laser system that delivers 1927 nm energy in precise microthermal zones across the skin. Rather than removing entire layers of tissue, ULTRA creates a pattern of controlled thermal impact that encourages natural regeneration, promoting smoother texture, refined pores, and a brighter, more even tone. It is designed to treat sun damage, hyperpigmentation, age spots, fine lines, and dull, uneven skin with minimal recovery time compared to traditional resurfacing.
The depth and intensity are fully customizable — from lighter refresh settings to deeper rejuvenation.
At vafaMD, resurfacing is always rooted in skin health and regeneration. We use Lutronic ULTRA to encourage controlled renewal of the epidermis and dermal support structures, improving texture and tone with customizable depth and downtime. Each protocol is tailored to your skin’s condition, pigmentation concerns, and long-term glow goals. Our approach prioritizes quality of result over unnecessary heat or downtime.
Ideal for:
• Uneven texture & dullness
• Sun damage & age spots
• Hyperpigmentation & freckling
• Enlarged pores
• Fine lines
• Mild acne scarring
• Tone irregularities
• Post-inflammatory pigmentation
What to expect:
Treatment Time:
30-60 mins. (+ numbing time)
Downtime:
Plan for approximately 2–3 days of social downtime. Redness can range from mild to a more noticeable sunburn-like appearance depending on treatment intensity and may last anywhere from 1–7 days.
healing:
Mild swelling can occur, particularly around the eyes. As the skin renews, it typically develops a dry, rough or “sandpaper-like” texture with light flaking or shedding. This usually resolves within about one week on the face and can take longer on the neck or body.
comfort level:
Spicy but manageable. Topical numbing cream is included. More sensitive areas, particularly the forehead, may feel warmer or more intense during treatment.
FAQ

Not necessarily in the way you might expect from a chemical peel. As the skin renews, it often develops a dry, rough or “sandpaper-like” texture, followed by light flaking or shedding. This can be more noticeable with stronger treatment settings.
-
This depends on the intensity of your treatment and how your skin is healing. Your provider will give you specific post-treatment instructions based on your treatment settings.

Early improvements in brightness, texture, and tone typically become noticeable within the first few weeks. Results continue to develop as the skin renews following treatment, with progressive improvement after each session.

Yes — settings can be adjusted to safely treat a broad range of skin types with careful pigment control.
