What Makes It Different

Resurfacing, refined.

LaseMD is a fractional thulium laser by Lutronic — the same family of medical-grade technology trusted in dermatology worldwide. Unlike older ablative lasers that remove the entire skin surface and demand weeks of recovery, LaseMD creates precise microscopic treatment channels, leaving surrounding tissue intact to speed healing.

The controlled injury triggers your skin to shed pigmented, damaged cells and replace them with fresh, healthy tissue. Tone becomes more even, texture refines, and a genuine luminosity returns — the glass skin effect in action — the kind that comes from healthy, well-functioning skin rather than a product sitting on top of it.

At Skiin, LaseMD is often paired with skin boosters for hydration or RF microneedling for deeper remodelling — a complete approach to skin quality.

The Result

The look & feel

  • Brighter, more even tone
  • Faded pigmentation and sun damage
  • Refined texture and smaller pores
  • Softer fine lines
  • A genuine, healthy luminosity
  • A smoother, more translucent 'glass skin' finish
  • Minimal downtime — back to normal next day

LaseMD restores the surface of the skin. The change reads as clear and radiant, never as 'lasered'.

The Treatment

What to expect & when

01

Day 0

Treatment

Topical anaesthetic, then the laser passes over the skin. A 15–30 minute session with warmth and a mild prickling sensation.

02

Day 2–5

Bronze & flaking

Mild redness with light flaking or 'bronzing'. Mineral SPF is essential. Most return to normal activities the next day.

03

Week 1

Tone brightens

Luminosity returns and tone evens as fresh, healthy skin replaces the treated surface — your first glimpse of the glass skin finish.

04

Month 1–4

Full course

A course of 3–4 sessions spaced 4 weeks apart for pigmentation, with maintenance twice yearly to protect results.

FAQs

LaseMD Manchester questions

LaseMD is a fractional thulium laser developed by Lutronic. It creates microscopic channels in the skin, triggering a controlled healing response that replaces damaged cells with fresh, healthy tissue. The result is improved pigmentation, more even tone, refined texture and a genuine luminosity — with far less downtime than traditional ablative lasers.

LaseMD at Skiin is priced per session or as a course. The number of sessions depends on your skin concerns — pigmentation may require 3–4 sessions, while a glow-boosting maintenance treatment may be a single session. All pricing is discussed transparently during your consultation.

LaseMD is often called a 'lunchtime' laser because downtime is minimal. Expect mild redness and a light flaking or 'bronzing' effect for 2–5 days, depending on the intensity chosen. Most patients return to normal activities the next day and wear mineral SPF as the skin renews.

LaseMD is excellent for pigmentation and sun damage, uneven tone, fine lines, dullness, enlarged pores and rough texture. It can be used on the face, neck, décolletage and hands — areas that often show sun damage and are difficult to treat with injectables.

LaseMD uses laser energy to resurface the upper layers of the skin, making it ideal for pigmentation, tone and surface texture. RF microneedling delivers energy deeper into the dermis to tighten and remodel collagen, making it better for skin laxity and scarring. The two are complementary — your doctor will recommend the right approach for your concerns.

LaseMD suits anyone noticing pigmentation, uneven tone, dullness or fine lines who wants meaningful improvement without the downtime of deeper resurfacing. It is suitable for most skin types and is particularly effective for sun-damaged skin on the face, neck and hands.

Yes — LaseMD has become known as the glass skin laser because of the smooth, even, almost translucent finish it creates. The glass skin look, made famous by Korean beauty and celebrity glass skin trends, is built on uniform tone, refined texture and real luminosity — precisely what LaseMD delivers. Patients searching for glass skin in Manchester often find LaseMD Ultra the most direct route to it.
