LaseMD Ultra™ Laser Treatment in NYC
Conveniently located to serve New York City
If you want to achieve noticeable improvements in skin tone, texture, and radiance with minimal downtime, LaseMD Ultra™ laser treatments may be the answer. Under the care of board-certified dermatologist Dr. Evan Rieder at 36 North Moore Dermatology in NYC, LaseMD Ultra™ can effectively address sun damage, melasma, and early signs of aging like wrinkles and fine lines to give your skin a reset without the recovery time associated with more aggressive lasers.
What Is LaseMD Ultra™?
LaseMD Ultra™ is an advanced, non-ablative laser skin rejuvenation treatment that visibly improves your complexion with minimal discomfort and downtime. Safe for all skin types and tones, LaseMD Ultra™ uses fractional thulium laser energy to create microscopic thermal zones deep within the skin. This stimulates collagen production in the dermis while leaving the skin’s outermost layer intact. It also allows for deeper penetration of active skincare ingredients to enhance your results.

Is LaseMD Ultra™ Right for You?
Candidates for LaseMD Ultra™ include patients of all skin tones and types who want to achieve a more vibrant, youthful complexion. Patients seeking a non-invasive treatment for restoring thicker, fuller hair can also be good candidates for LaseMD Ultra™.
During your consultation, Dr. Rieder will assess your skin, review your medical history, and speak with you in-depth about your aesthetic goals. He can then determine if LaseMD Ultra™ is the ideal treatment approach for accomplishing your desired outcome.
What to Expect During Your LaseMD Ultra™ Session
Total procedure time varies depending on the area and concerns being treated. Most LaseMD Ultra™ laser treatments at our NYC dermatology clinic are completed in under 30 minutes.
LaseMD dermatology procedures begin with gentle cleansing, followed by the application of a topical numbing cream to ensure your comfort. Dr. Rieder then uses the LaseMD Ultra™ handpiece to deliver concentrated light energy to the skin. Patients often describe a warm, tingling sensation during the procedure.
What to Expect After LaseMD Ultra™
LaseMD Ultra™ is a minimal downtime treatment, with many patients returning to their daily activities right after their session. Post-treatment, your skin may feel warm and appear pink, similar to a mild sunburn. Patients may experience light flaking or “dusty” exfoliation for a few days. It is important to keep the skin hydrated and be diligent about sun protection as the treated area heals.
As your skin regenerates, you will notice a brighter, smoother, more even complexion. A series of sessions is often recommended for optimal results.
How Much Does LaseMD Ultra™ Cost in NYC?
The cost of LaseMD Ultra™ varies based on the size of the treatment area, the number of sessions required, and whether you’re targeting skin rejuvenation, pigmentation, or hair restoration. During your consultation, Dr. Rieder will provide a customized treatment plan along with complete pricing information.
LaseMD Ultra™ vs. Other Laser Resurfacing Options
Unlike traditional ablative lasers, LaseMD Ultra™ is a fractional laser resurfacing tool that doesn’t remove the top layer of skin. This means it’s safer for sensitive skin, more comfortable overall, and requires far less recovery time. For deeper wrinkles or scarring, Dr. Rieder may recommend pairing LaseMD skin rejuvenation with other modalities for more comprehensive results.
FAQs about LaseMD Ultra™
How many LaseMD Ultra™ sessions will I need?
Many patients see improvement after just one session, but a series of three to four treatments spaced a few weeks apart often delivers the most dramatic results. Maintenance treatments can help extend your results over time.
Is LaseMD Ultra™ painful?
No, LaseMD Ultra™ is generally well-tolerated. A topical anesthetic is applied beforehand to minimize discomfort. Most patients describe feeling a warm, prickling sensation during the procedure.
What’s the downtime like?
While it often takes five to seven days to begin to see improvements, no significant downtime is required. You may experience mild redness and flaking for a few days, but patients often return to work and other regular activities the same day as their session.
Can LaseMD Ultra™ treat melasma?
Yes. Dr. Rieder often recommends LaseMD for melasma as it can target excess pigment with precision while minimizing the risk of triggering flare-ups. This makes LaseMD Ultra™ a safer, more effective melasma treatment option compared to many traditional methods.
How does LaseMD hair restoration work?
Dr. Rieder offers LaseMD Ultra™ hair restoration using the KeraLase protocol. This non-invasive treatment combines LaseMD Ultra™ laser energy with a topical serum rich in growth factors and peptides (KeraFactor®).
The laser creates microchannels in the scalp, allowing the serum to penetrate deeply for more effective stimulation of hair follicles. Dr. Rieder also uses red light therapy to activate the serum, promoting maximum improvements.
Is LaseMD Ultra™ safe for darker skin tones?
Yes. Because it is a non-ablative laser, LaseMD Ultra™ is safe for a wide range of skin types, including patients with darker skin tones. A consultation with Dr. Rieder is the best way to find out if LaseMD Ultra™ is the safest treatment approach for your unique needs and goals.
Can LaseMD Ultra™ be combined with other treatments?
Absolutely. Dr. Rieder often combines LaseMD facial treatments with chemical peels, wrinkle relaxers, dermal fillers, and other cosmetic procedures for comprehensive prejuvenation and rejuvenation results.
