As the kids head back to school and routines shift from summer to structure, it’s the perfect time to focus on your own glow-up! Whether you’re returning to the office, starting a new semester, or simply reclaiming your self-care routine, fall is the ideal season to rejuvenate your skin and refresh your confidence.
At MiraMed and Day Spa, we specialize in helping you look and feel your best! One of our favorite treatments for delivering radiant, smooth skin fast is the Ultra Laser. Paired with expert skin prep using products like Hydroquinone, this dynamic combo sets you up for long-lasting results.
💡 What Is Ultra Laser?
Ultra Laser is a cutting-edge non-ablative laser treatment designed to revitalize the skin without damaging the surface. It targets pigment, fine lines, texture, and overall dullness by stimulating collagen production and promoting cellular turnover deep within the skin.
Unlike older laser treatments that required heavy downtime, Ultra Laser offers faster recovery, making it ideal for the back-to-school or back-to-work season when you want maximum impact with minimal interruption.
How It Works:
Uses fractional laser energy to penetrate below the skin’s surface
Triggers natural collagen regeneration
Targets sun damage, pigmentation, texture, and early signs of aging
Safe for most skin tones and types

🧴 Skin Prep Matters: Why You Need a Consultation First
Before booking your Ultra Laser session, we always recommend a personalized consultation. Why? Because the success of your laser treatment starts with proper skin preparation.
Our expert team may recommend pre-treatment products like Hydroquinone, a dermatologist-grade topical that:
Lightens hyperpigmentation and melasma
Reduces the risk of post-inflammatory pigmentation after laser
Prepares the skin for uniform results
Is often used for 2–4 weeks before laser to ensure optimal outcome
We tailor your regimen based on skin type, concerns, and treatment goals.
