Laser Resurfacing · Brentwood, Los Angeles
Ultra
The glow laser — resurfacing without the downtime.
What Is the Ultra Laser?
Ultra is Lutronic's non-ablative fractional laser (the next generation of the LaseMD Ultra), using a 1927 nm thulium wavelength to create thousands of microscopic channels in the upper layers of skin while leaving the surface intact. It heats dermal tissue while preserving the epidermis, which means real resurfacing results without the raw, peeling recovery of ablative lasers.
What Does Ultra Treat?
Overall glow and radiance ("the laser facial"), uneven tone and texture, sun damage and early pigmentation, fine lines, enlarged pores, dullness, and keratosis pilaris on the body. Because it's gentle and adjustable, it's a favorite first laser — and safe for all skin types.
What Is an Ultra Session Like?
Numbing cream, then a 15–20 minute laser pass that most clients describe as warm prickling, not pain. Skin looks lightly sunburned for 24–48 hours and may feel like sandpaper for a few days as the micro-damage flakes away — then the glow comes in. Makeup is usually fine the next day. A series of 3 treatments gives the best texture and tone results; one session before an event delivers the signature glow.

Nurse Jamie's Potenza + Ultra Laser Stacking
Our signature combination pairs the Ultra laser with Potenza RF microneedling in one visit ($2,000): Potenza remodels and tightens from below while Ultra resurfaces from above — targeting acne scars, enlarged pores, fine lines, sun damage and dullness with minimal downtime.
Ultra vs. Clear + Brilliant
Both are gentle "glow" lasers. Clear + Brilliant is the older, better-known name; Ultra's thulium wavelength and adjustable settings deliver comparable-or-stronger resurfacing with similar minimal downtime, and at Beauty Ranch it can be stacked with RF microneedling the same day. If you've been searching for Clear + Brilliant in Los Angeles, Ultra is the modern alternative.
