In practice, the device creates tiny ablative “micro-injuries” in the epidermis and dermis, leaving surrounding tissue intact. These controlled micro-injuries trigger the skin’s natural healing response, driving new cell growth and collagen remodelling for smoother, tighter, healthier-looking skin.
UltraClear’s patented 3DIntelliPulse™ technology delivers blended cold ablative and thermal pulses into each treatment zone. This means each pass can simultaneously remove a bit of surface layer and deposit a small dose of heat, optimising collagen stimulation while minimising pain and bleeding.
Unlike older CO₂ lasers, UltraClear is designed for superior precision and safety; its high-repetition fibre delivery and small spot size eliminate erratic beam patterns for uniform coverage. Practitioners can adjust the intensity and mode depending on need – from a gentle fractional resurfacing to a deeper ablative peel, even up to full-thickness laser-tissue coring for severe wrinkles or lax skin. This versatility makes UltraClear effective on a wide range of concerns.
UltraClear addresses many common ageing and skin-damage issues. It is FDA-cleared (and TGA-approved in Australia) for reversing signs of photoageing. Typical indications include:
UltraClear can be used on the face, neck, chest and body. In Sydney and elsewhere, aesthetic doctors use it wherever precise skin renewal is needed – for example to rejuvenate the décolletage (low neckline), hands or post-surgical scar revision.

Before Your Treatment
You will have a consultation with Dr Roth to review your skin history. In the days prior, it’s important to avoid excessive sun exposure or tanning (use SPF50+ sunscreen). Some practitioners recommend stopping blood-thinning medications (aspirin, ibuprofen) about a week in advance.
On treatment day, arrive with clean, make-up–free skin. If you are prone to cold-sores (herpes labialis), inform us so antiviral prophylaxis can be used.
During the Procedure
In the clinic your skin will be cleansed and gentle anaesthetic cream may be applied. UltraClear treatment typically involves one or more passes of the laser handpiece (about 15 minutes for a full-face session. You will wear protective eyewear. Dr Roth (or his nurse) will deliver the laser pulses to each area; you will feel a mild pinching or prickling sensation.
No hospital stay is needed. A cooling gel or mask is applied at the end to soothe the skin.
After the Procedure
Expect your skin to look sunburnt (red) and feel warm. Tiny crusts or micro-scabs may form where the beams hit, usually flaking off in about 5–7 days. Follow-up instructions include gentle cleansing, moisturising ointments (e.g. petroleum jelly or prescribed balm) and strict sun avoidance.
Avoid direct sun for at least 2–4 weeks post-treatment, wear a physical shade (hat) and reapply SPF 50+ every 2–3 hours when outdoors. You should also avoid harsh exfoliants, retinoids or active skincare ingredients (AHAs/BHAs) for about 2 weeks to allow healing.
Most patients can return to non-strenuous activities and makeup within 1–2 days for light treatments, or about one week for aggressive resurfacing.
Over the following weeks, your skin’s true renewal unfolds. Fibroblasts churn out collagen, tightening the dermis and smoothing fine lines. Many patients report continued improvement for 3–6 months after a course of UltraClear.
Clinical data show that after three treatments (6–8 weeks apart), patients achieved “moderate to marked improvement” in photoaging with high satisfaction.
Dr Roth will typically review your progress at 1–3 months post-procedure. Touch-up sessions or maintenance peels may be recommended yearly or as needed to sustain results, since ageing continues.
UltraClear® cold-fibre laser treatment is suitable for all skin types, including darker tones. Its precise micro-beam action means treatment can be tailored safely to each patient’s skin.
The laser is fractional (only a fraction of the skin is treated per pulse), which drastically reduces recovery time. UltraClear can run in different modes: from low-fluence superficial ablation (non-ablative type) up to high-fluence deep ablation and even full-thickness “tissue-coring”. Each mode can be fine-tuned in energy and density. This versatility means one platform can be used for a gentle resurfacing or an aggressive rejuvenation, unlike older lasers.
This proprietary delivery breaks each laser pulse into multiple sub-pulses and alternates ablative and coagulative energy within each micro-zone. Essentially, each microbeam not only vaporises tissue but also deposits a controlled burst of heat into the deeper dermis. This dual action optimises collagen remodelling while preventing excessive pain or bleeding. Patients feel it as a series of gentle taps rather than a burn.
UltraClear® is the first-of-its-kind solution for revitalising the skin and making your face appear fresher, smoother, tighter, and younger in just one 20-minute treatment. It is clinically proven and cleared by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA).
UltraClear® uses short, concentrated light beams to gently remove top layers of dull and damaged skin, triggering the body’s natural healing process and stimulating new cell growth. At the same time, UltraClear® deposits controlled thermal energy at the dermal level inducing just the right amount of thermal energy at the right skin depth to start the rejuvenation process, increasing collagen and elastin production, revitalizing your skin from the inside out.
UltraClear®’s innovative MIRACL™ technology dramatically reduces the treatment pain level, making it the most comfortable facial rejuvenation solution on the market. Pain score with UltraClear® treatment is typically less than 3 on a scale of 10, while most other methods have pain scores greater or equal to 6.
UltraClear® offers a wide range of patient-friendly treatment options tailored to your desired results and lifestyle.
If you want to quickly smooth out your skin with a more radiant complexion but get back to work as soon as possible, the little-to-no-downtime lunchtime light peel may be your best option. You may have some redness and mild swelling on your face right after the treatment, but you can apply make-up within a few hours and go back to work the next day.
If you wish to treat deep wrinkles or acne scars and can take a few days off, a more intense option may be performed for more dramatic improvement with 7-10 days of downtime.
With UltraClear®’s lunchtime light peel option, you will notice an improvement in your skin in just 2 to 5 days after your treatment. The results may last a few months.
For UltraClear®’s more intense treatment options, your skin will continue to get better for up to a year and the results may last 1 to 5 years.
However, since our skin continues to age and new wrinkles and spots may appear due to sun damage and daily life, additional treatments may be needed to maintain healthier, fresher and younger-looking skin.
UltraClear®’s revolutionary cold fiber laser technology and advanced precision energy control minimise unwanted thermal damage, making it safe and effective for all skin types, including previously high-risk skin type III and above (Asian and darker skin patients).
UltraClear® cold-fibre laser treatment is suitable for all skin types, including darker tones. Its precise micro-beam action means treatment can be tailored safely to each patient’s skin.
Before your session, Dr Roth will customise the treatment plan to your skin type and goals. During and after the procedure you will be closely monitored, and any concerns addressed promptly.
Post-treatment care instructions include gentle skin care and diligent sun protection – especially important in Australia’s strong UV environment.
While no procedure is entirely risk-free, UltraClear’s safety profile is excellent. In published studies, the only observed side-effects were temporary redness, swelling and occasional mild pigmentation changes – all fully reversible. Serious complications (infection, scarring) are exceedingly rare with proper care.
In summary: UltraClear is a versatile, powerful laser rejuvenation tool. It can soften wrinkles, fade discolouration and revitalise skin texture without the long recovery of old ablative lasers. Many of Sydney’s leading specialists (including Dr Jason Roth) now use UltraClear to help patients achieve fresher, more youthful skin.
