Lumenis UltraPulse CO2 Laser.

Do you experience exhaustion from fixing skin issues that require long-term solutions? If your skincare treatments no longer satisfy your needs you should start exploring permanent solutions for your skin issues. We will showcase the Lumenis UltraPulse CO2 laser as our advanced skin treatment solution during this blog post.

What Does the Lumenis UltraPulse CO2 Laser Do?

The Lumenis UltraPulse CO2 laser applies fractional ablative technology to create tiny skin vaporization dots even as it protects adjacent cellular structures. Patients experience both faster healing and safer results by using fractional technology instead of traditional ablative lasers.

The laser’s energy serves as a spark to activate your body’s healing systems which both launches collagen growth and creates fresh tissue for new skin cell development.

What Conditions Can Lumenis UltraPulse CO2 Laser Treat?

The Lumenis UltraPulse CO2 laser can effectively treat the following skin concerns:

• Wrinkles and fine lines
• Sun damage
• Uneven texure
• Pigmentation issues such as freckles, sun spots, and age spots
• Scars from surgeries, acne, or burns
• Lax, loose skin

This specialized laser stands out because its settings allow your skincare treatment to match your specific needs closely. Due to its customizable nature multiple skin problems can obtain treatment easily during one session.

The treatment we provide will suit your desired intensity level and recovery necessities based on your preferred results.

What are the Advantages of the Lumenis UltraPulse CO2?

The original Lumenis UltraPulse CO2 technology marked a significant advance in laser resurfacing through its brief pulse duration resulting in it delivering focused heat to the target area with minimal effect on adjacent tissues.  Through its rapid heating process the UltraPulse® CO2 technology generates less surrounding skin heat while offering patients a combination of reduced discomfort and minimized tissue inflammation.  Patients receive faster recovery times because of this laser treatment.

The treatment system grants 100% coverage for total area ablative procedures yet allows segmentation treatment areas (fractionation). The fractionated settings of this Lumenis UltraPulse CO2 laser span from superficial treatments to the market-leading 4mm depth allowing extensive control in scar treatment. The laser system can integrate both techniques within one treatment session as an ablative therapy combined with fractionated methods.

Settings modification occurs with rapid adjustments that need no advanced skills. Thanks to its adaptable treatment settings the procedure adapts to each patient’s unique requirements since extensive “barcode lines” of the upper lip require deeper treatment while the outer cheek skin along with the neck requires reduced depths. Adjustments to coverage and setting depth control recovery duration as the Lumenis UltraPulse CO2 laser provides powerful customization capabilities. Often we will use very different settings on different parts of the face during the same session.

Does Lumenis UltraPulse CO2 Laser Treatment Hurt?

Your comfort remains our main focus throughout every step of the treatment journey at Prof. Dr. Ikram Ullah Khan Skin Clinic. The skin treatment begins with application of local anesthetic followed by an oral medication choice for added protection.

Treatment processes create two primary sensations on the skin surface which patients report somewhat as a prickling pins and needles effect alongside an elastic snap sensation. Patients usually experience minor pain which the body handles without major issues.

Lumenis CO2 Laser Recovery & Healing Process

Your Lumenis UltraPulse CO2 treatment recovery sequence follows specific timelines which depend on how deeply the laser energy penetrated your skin tissue. Following treatment you will experience reddened skin that feels like sunburn and displays sensitivity but heals during recovery. The professional dermatologist will explain which cleansing procedures you should perform while your skin recovers.

You can start using makeup or concealer to hide remaining redness when your skin reaches between 5 to 14 days of healing.

When you progress beyond this first stage your skin develops a lasting pink color that remains visible for weeks or months. Your natural complexion will appear over time as your skin recovers back to its original color. Your skin will keep improving throughout the six to twelve-month post-treatment span while collagen renews your complexion.

Does the CO2 Laser Treatment Work for Every Skin Type?

In fair-skinned individuals the skin stays pink after the Lumenis UltraPulse CO2 treatment for two months while others experience pink skin lasting about two weeks.  Throughout the process of skin improvement the ongoing pink color tells you that your skin continues to revamp after treatment delivery. People who wish to reduce persistent pinkness can accelerate the recovery phase through using our vascular lasers including lasergenesis or Intense Pulsed Light.

People with Mediterranean and Asian skin colors develop dark post inflammatory hyperpigmentation after skin injuries instead of experiencing pink skin for extended periods. Exposure to sunlight makes this pigmentation worse.  Darker skin tones face a greater threat of severe post inflammatory hyperpigmentation appearance. Treatment options exist for this hyperpigmentation through prescription creams because dark-skinned individuals typically experience less severe wrinkles than people with fair skin so they tend to avoid strong laser settings.
