UltraClear™

This will depend on your choice of treatment. The 3DMIRACL treatment can take only 30 minutes for the whole appointment from start to finish, however if you opt for a deeper treatment with the doctor (ADVANCED) then it can be from 45 minutes as this would be a deeper skin rejuvenation and collagen remodelling treatment.

Again this is dependant on the treatment choice. For a 3DMIRACL treatment, you will have some redness and mild swelling right after treatment and will feel a heat sensation, but this should reside in a few hours. We all react differently, so for some it may take slightly longer.
If you wish to treat deep wrinkles or acne scars which requires a more intense treatment which is the ADVANCED with a doctor, you will have an average of up to 14 days of downtime, possibly longer for a laser coring treatment.

It is recommended waiting 4-6 weeks to allow for natural exfoliation and skin turnover. Depending upon your personalised plan, 3-6 UltraClear treatments may be recommended on an annual basis.

UltraClear safely and efficiently treats all skin types and does not require topical numbing for most procedures (with the exception of the doctor led deeper treatments). The treatments are fairly comfortable, with a low pain level (however we all perceive this differently!). UltraClear treatments are from 30 minutes with minimal downtime (depending on the intensity chosen).

UltraClear offers a patient experience no other technology can match.

When it comes to ablative skin resurfacing, UltraClear is indeed the safest laser for all skin types (Fitzpatrick 1-6). This is because it is the world’s first and only cold fibre laser. This means that it emits very little energy as heat (5% compared to 60% from CO2 laser). Less heat means less risk of complications such as pigment change. UltraClear is the best and safest option for skin types at higher risk of hyperpigmentation and at Perfect Skin Solutions, we have treated many such patients with excellent clinical outcomes.

CO2 laser is a long time favourite for resurfacing the skin, helping to improve skin texture including scarring. However, about 60% of the energy emitted from CO2 lasers is in the form of heat. This heat contributes to inflammation and in turn poses the risk of complications such as pigment disturbance and prolonged skin sensitivity. Furthermore, downtime tends to be longer as a result including the sensation of ‘heat’. UltraClear can be set to release as little as 5% heat energy! This results in a few key benefits: less downtime, significantly more comfort during and after treatment and a dramatically lower risk of unwanted side effects. UltraClear’s unique and patented cold fibre technology makes it the safest laser available for skin resurfacing. In fact, we have made our own CO2 laser and Erbium:YAG lasers dormant at Perfect Skin Solutions, as UltraClear offers the best laser option.
