LaseMD Ultra Laser in Newport Beach, CA
What is LaseMD Ultra?
Many patients come to us looking for a gentle but effective laser treatment — one that delivers real results without weeks of recovery. LaseMD Ultra is one of the most effective answers to that at Grey Aesthetics Newport Beach.
LaseMD Ultra is a non-ablative fractional laser by Lutronic that uses a 1927nm thulium wavelength to resurface and rejuvenate skin. It creates precise micro-channels in the dermis to trigger collagen remodeling — clearing pigmentation, smoothing texture, and revealing a more even complexion with minimal downtime.
- Reduce sun damage and age spots
- Smooth fine lines and wrinkles

Clinically Proven Laser Results — With the Comfort You Deserve
Reverse Sun Damage
Years of sun exposure cause pigmentation, texture changes, and dull skin. LaseMD Ultra precisely targets and breaks down sun damage to reveal a clearer, more even complexion.
Smooth Fine Lines & Wrinkles
The fractional laser stimulates collagen and elastin production deep in the dermis, progressively smoothing fine lines and improving overall skin firmness.
Minimal Downtime
Unlike ablative lasers, LaseMD Ultra delivers effective results with only 1–3 days of mild redness and flaking — so you can return to your routine quickly.

How Does LaseMD Ultra Work?
LaseMD Ultra uses a 1927nm non-ablative fractional laser to create microscopic treatment zones — called micro-channels — deep within the skin. Because only a fraction of the skin is treated at a time, the surrounding healthy tissue accelerates healing and drives rapid collagen remodeling.
Unlike ablative lasers that remove the outer skin layer entirely, LaseMD Ultra's non-ablative approach preserves the skin barrier. This means you benefit from real, measurable improvement in pigmentation, tone, and texture — while keeping downtime to an absolute minimum.
The treatment can also be paired with topical serums and growth factors applied through the micro-channels, further amplifying results for brightening or targeted treatment of specific skin concerns.
What to Expect at Your Treatment
Is LaseMD Ultra right for you?
For those who want results without significant downtime, LaseMD Ultra is often an ideal fit — particularly for pigmentation, melasma, sun damage, and early signs of aging. It's one of the more versatile laser options because it works well across all skin types and can be adjusted for sensitivity.
If you're dealing with pigmentation or melasma, this is often one of the strongest non-ablative options available. Your consultation will confirm whether it's the right match for your skin.
LaseMD Ultra works well for:
- Sun damage and age spots
- Hyperpigmentation and melasma
- Uneven skin texture and tone
- Fine lines and early wrinkles
- Overall dullness and loss of radiance
- Patients seeking a low-downtime laser option
You may need a different approach if:
- Significant skin laxity or sagging is your primary concern (TriLift may be more appropriate)
- You want maximum resurfacing intensity and are prepared for extended downtime (CO2 laser may suit better)
- Active skin infections or certain skin conditions are present
LaseMD Ultra vs other laser treatments
Understanding how LaseMD Ultra compares to other resurfacing options helps you make a more informed decision — and helps us guide you to the right treatment for your skin.
LaseMD Ultra vs CO2 Laser
CO2 is ablative — it removes the outer skin layer and requires 7–14 days of downtime for meaningful results. LaseMD Ultra is non-ablative, with only 1–3 days of mild recovery. CO2 is preferred for deep resurfacing; LaseMD is preferred for pigmentation, maintenance, and patients who can't afford extended downtime.
LaseMD Ultra vs RF Microneedling
RF microneedling targets deeper collagen and skin laxity through heat and micro-injury. LaseMD excels at surface-level concerns — pigmentation, sun damage, and texture. The two are often complementary: one targets structure, the other targets tone.
LaseMD Ultra vs Chemical Peels
Chemical peels exfoliate the surface chemically with results varying by depth. LaseMD Ultra delivers fractional laser energy deeper into the dermis, providing more targeted collagen stimulation — particularly for fine lines and pigmentation that peels may not fully address.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is LaseMD Ultra?
LaseMD Ultra is a non-ablative fractional laser system by Lutronic that uses a 1927nm thulium fiber wavelength to deliver precise micro-channels into the skin. This stimulates the body's natural healing response, producing fresh collagen and clearing damaged tissue — resulting in smoother, more radiant skin.
What skin concerns does LaseMD Ultra treat?
LaseMD Ultra effectively addresses sun damage, hyperpigmentation, melasma, fine lines and wrinkles, uneven skin texture, enlarged pores, and overall dullness. It can be used on the face, neck, décolletage, and hands.
Is LaseMD Ultra safe for all skin types?
Yes. LaseMD Ultra is designed to be safe and effective across all Fitzpatrick skin types. Its non-ablative approach and precise energy delivery make it a versatile option for a wide range of patients.
What is the treatment like?
A topical numbing cream is applied prior to treatment for comfort. The laser handpiece glides over the skin delivering tiny laser columns while leaving surrounding tissue intact. Most sessions take 20–40 minutes depending on the area treated.
What is the downtime?
You may experience mild redness, a sunburn-like sensation, and some skin flaking for 1–3 days following treatment. Makeup can typically be applied the day after. Most patients return to normal activities the same day.
How many treatments will I need?
Most patients see visible improvement after a single session, with optimal results achieved after a series of 3–5 treatments spaced 4–6 weeks apart. Your provider will recommend a personalized treatment plan during your consultation.
