Skin Rejuvenation with Lutronic Ultra

When you have concerns about imperfections in your skin and wish to correct them, you have a variety of options, but you may not know that Lutronic Ultra is one of those choices. As a versatile cosmetic treatment, it can help you achieve brighter, healthier skin that you can look forward to for a long time. It’s important to get all the facts about Lutronic Ultra if you are considering this treatment.

What Is Lutronic Ultra Laser Treatment?

Lutronic Ultra addresses a number of concerns pertaining to the skin. The Lutronic Ultra laser is a cosmetic procedure that is non-invasive. It uses a non-ablative thulium laser to treat skin issues like spots, freckles, and sun damage. When you receive this treatment, you can look forward to achieving new, healthy skin in the face, chest, and neck. The topmost layers of the skin are addressed but not damaged. The treatment penetrates deep layers to provide you with the best possible results. There’s minimal downtime, and you can quickly notice results such as tighter, brighter, and smoother skin, giving you a younger appearance.

What Skin Issues Can Lutronic Ultra Laser Address?

No two people have the exact same concerns about their skin. While one person might want to focus on improving the skin on their chest or neck, you might want to focus on your face– fortunately, Lutronic Ultra Laser can be used to treat the skin on all these areas. It can address common skin concerns like acne scarring, wrinkles, and fine lines, and lightened skin from stretch marks and pesky brown spots. However, it can also help to rebuild your skin to a healthier state and address larger concerns like precancerous lesions.

What Can You Expect During Your Treatment?

As a fast and simple cosmetic procedure that aims to rejuvenate any problem areas of your skin, Lutronic Ultra Laser can be done during your lunch break. Depending on the skin issues you wish to treat, you may have a varied experience. Generally, Lutronic Ultra Laser takes around 20 minutes. It gives you a warm sensation on the treated area and may make you appear flushed overnight. However, this resolves by the next day after your procedure. In most cases, the treatment is comfortable and does not involve any pain.

What Can You Expect Immediately After Treatment?

Lutronic Ultra involves minimal downtime, so you can quickly resume a slightly altered version of your regular routine. Everyone is different, however, so listen to the instructions Dr. Homas and Dr. Brostrom give you. Regardless of the length of your recovery, you’ll have mild redness similar to a sunburn in the beginning.

What Post-Care Routines Should You Adopt?

Along with mild redness, patients may experience a burning sensation for the first one to two hours following treatment. Sterile ice packs can provide safe, cool relief, but make sure they are clean and wrapped in gauze so water does not enter the affected area. After 24 hours, the treatment area should be gently moisturized with products approved by Dr. Homas and Dr. Brostrom daily for at least a week.

Retinol, AHA, and alcohol can complicate the recovery process, so please avoid cosmetics products with these ingredients– alcohol products can be used after one week with doctoral approval. Redness can be aggravated by intense exercise, alcohol, or anything that increases blood flow, so you should keep your activities light for the first week. For at least 20 days after treatment, you should wear SPF 30 sunscreen daily along with an umbrella, sun hat, or other sun-protection methods.

How Many Treatments Do You Need?

You can see results after just one Lutronic Ultra procedure. Depending on your skin issues and what you wish to achieve, you may need more. In many cases, three or more treatments annually are enough to help you retain your results.

Who Is a Good Candidate?

Generally, anyone can benefit from Lutronic Ultra treatment. If you have any skin concerns ranging from fine lines or wrinkles to sun damage to acne scarring, you are a good candidate. The procedure can address any skin color and can be done all year long.

Length of Results

Your results appear shortly after your treatment. Within three to six months, you will see even more out of your Lutronic Ultra procedure. You may need additional treatments throughout the years to retain your results.
