Laser Coring with UltraClear

What is Laser Coring?

Laser Coring™ is an advanced technique performed with the UltraClear® laser, utilizing the 2910-nm erbium-doped glass fiber. This fractional ablative laser delivers high-speed, precisely controlled pulses to create microscopic "cores" or channels in the skin. These microchannels trigger deep tissue healing, encouraging collagen remodeling and improving skin texture, tone, and elasticity.

How Does Laser Coring Work?

Microscopic Channels for Skin Renewal: The UltraClear® laser uses a spiral pattern of high-speed pulses to ablate tissue, creating uniform, microscopic cores that penetrate deep into the skin.
Collagen Stimulation and Skin Tightening: By inducing deep wound healing, Laser Coring promotes collagen production, leading to natural skin tightening and rejuvenation. This results in smoother, firmer skin with minimal downtime.
Customized Treatment Options: The UltraClear® system offers over 100 different programs, allowing for customized treatment to target specific skin concerns such as fine lines, wrinkles, and skin laxity.

Benefits of Laser Coring with UltraClear®

Quick Recovery: Compared to other deep laser resurfacing technologies, Laser Coring™ offers faster recovery times with less discomfort.
Natural Results: The process stimulates the body’s natural healing response, leading to long-lasting, rejuvenated skin without the need for invasive surgery.
Versatility: Laser Coring can treat a variety of skin issues, from wrinkles and texture irregularities to skin laxity and uneven pigmentation.

Laser Coring with UltraClear® is ideal for those seeking a non-invasive yet effective solution for skin tightening and collagen stimulation with minimal recovery time. The customizable settings ensure that each treatment is tailored to your unique skin needs, offering precise results every time.

UltraClear Laser Skin Resurfacing FAQ

How many sessions will I need?

Many patients see noticeable results after just one treatment. For deeper wrinkles or scars, a series of sessions may be recommended to achieve and maintain the best outcome.

When will I see results?

Skin brightness and smoothness improvements can appear within a few days after lighter treatments. With more intensive sessions, collagen remodeling continues for months, progressively improving firmness and tone.

How long do the results last?

Lighter peels typically last a few months, while deeper rejuvenation can provide results lasting 1–5 years. Ongoing maintenance and sun protection help extend these benefits.

Are there risks with UltraClear?

As with any laser procedure, there are potential risks, including temporary redness, swelling, mild discomfort, or pigment changes. Rarely, scarring or infection may occur. At Holcomb Kreithen, treatments are performed using advanced safety protocols to minimize these risks.

How should I prepare before my appointment?

Avoid tanning, harsh exfoliants, and retinoids for at least one week. Be sure to disclose any medications, recent skin treatments, or history of cold sores so your provider can take preventive steps.

What areas of the body can be treated?

While most patients choose full-face rejuvenation, UltraClear can also be used on the neck, décolletage, hands, and delicate areas such as the upper eyelids, depending on your treatment plan.
