What is ULTRApulse® Alpha?

ULTRApulse® Alpha is a cutting-edge fractional CO2 laser technology designed for advanced skin resurfacing and rejuvenation. It's known for its precision and effectiveness in treating various skin concerns, including

  • Wrinkles and Fine Lines: ULTRApulse® Alpha helps smooth out wrinkles and fine lines by promoting collagen production, resulting in firmer and more youthful-looking skin.
  • Scars: It can significantly improve the appearance of acne, surgical, and other types of scars by promoting skin regeneration and reducing scar tissue visibility.
  • Pigmentation Issues (Dyschromia): The ULTRApulse® Alpha laser in Tampa targets and breaks down excess pigmentation, such as sun spots, age spots, and uneven skin tone, leading to a more even complexion.
  • Skin Texture: It enhances overall skin texture by removing damaged outer layers and stimulating the growth of new, healthier skin cells.
  • Tightening: ULTRApulse® Alpha tightens the skin by stimulating collagen and elastin production, resulting in smoother, firmer skin with improved elasticity.
  • Periorbital Resurfacing: This targets the skin around the eyes to address signs of aging, fine lines, and other concerns.
  • Perioral Resurfacing: It improves the skin around the mouth using various methods to enhance texture and reduce wrinkles.
  • Nonsurgical Blepharoplasty: A cosmetic procedure that revitalizes the eye area without surgery, effectively reducing dark circles, under-eye bags, fine lines, and wrinkles.
  • Keratosis Removal: It helps eliminate keratosis, which are rough, horn-like growths on the skin.
  • Rhinophyma Treatment: It addresses the skin disorder that causes nasal enlargement, redness, and a bumpy texture, often linked to untreated rosacea.

    ULTRApulse® Alpha Benefits

    ULTRApulse® Alpha laser in Tampa offers numerous benefits across various skin types and concerns, making it a versatile choice for advanced skin rejuvenation:

    • Precision and Customization: Laser technology targets specific skin concerns, adjusting parameters like intensity and depth to tailor treatments to individual needs.
    • Effective Skin Rejuvenation: It addresses multiple skin issues such as wrinkles, fine lines, sun damage, pigmentation irregularities, and acne scars, promoting smoother, more youthful skin.
    • Collagen Stimulation: By stimulating collagen production deep within the skin, ULTRApulse® Alpha helps improve skin elasticity and firmness, reducing the appearance of sagging and enhancing overall skin texture.
    • Minimal Downtime: Compared to traditional CO2 lasers, ULTRApulse® Alpha treatments often involve shorter recovery periods due to their fractional technology. This technology targets only a fraction of the skin at a time, leaving surrounding tissues intact for quicker healing.
    • Long-lasting Results: With proper post-treatment care and maintenance, the results from ULTRApulse® Alpha treatments can be long-lasting, providing sustained improvements in skin tone, texture, and overall appearance.
    • Safe and Reliable: ULTRApulse® Alpha is designed with advanced safety features to ensure minimal risk of adverse effects when performed by trained professionals in a clinical setting.

    Acne and Scars

    The ULTRApulse® Alpha laser in Tampa is a cutting-edge solution for acne scars that may have seemed untreatable in the past. This procedure is effective for all types of scars, including new or old, deep or round and has long-lasting results.

    The treatment works by creating microscopic channels in the skin, stimulating the regeneration of elastic fibers and collagen, while leaving the unaffected tissue intact. This targeted approach accelerates healing.

    Typically, the base of the scar is treated more deeply, while surrounding areas receive light treatment to ensure minimal disruption. Your provider can tailor the treatment plan according to the specific characteristics of your scars, achieving dramatic improvements in skin texture and elasticity. 

    With ULTRApulse® Alpha, you can expect visible results that improve over time. The treatment not only addresses scars but also enhances the overall quality of your skin, making it a comprehensive solution for those looking to reduce the appearance of acne scars effectively. 

    Before & After Acne & Scars

    Am I a Good Candidate for ULTRApulse® Alpha?

    Candidates typically include the following:

    • People experiencing signs of aging such as wrinkles, fine lines, and skin laxity
    • Those with sun spots, age spots, and uneven skin tone caused by prolonged sun exposure
    • Individuals with acne scars looking to improve the texture and appearance of their skin
    • Those with rough or uneven skin texture due to various factors
    • People with pigmentation irregularities or discoloration on their skin.

     

    Candidates for the ULTRApulse® Alpha laser in Tampa should generally be healthy and have realistic expectations about the treatment's outcomes. Candidates should also have no active skin infections or other conditions that could interfere with the healing process. CO2 laser procedures are not suitable for patients who have taken Accutane® (Isotretinoin) within the last 6-12 months or had a history of keloid formation.

You can expect the laser treatment to last approximately 30 minutes.

It's essential to follow the post-procedure care instructions we provide, which may include applying soothing creams, cold compresses, avoiding direct sun exposure, and keeping the treated area clean and moisturized. Most patients return to regular activities in a week to ten days.
