UltraPulse Encore

UltraPulse Encore (Fractional CO2 Laser — DeepFX/SCAAR FX)

A resurfacing laser that uses a 10,600nm CO2 fractional laser (Lumenis UltraPulse Encore) to deliver energy deep into the dermis, improving deep acne scars, enlarged pores and wrinkles through collagen regeneration.

Anesthesia & PainNumbing cream. The top-tier fractional device (Lumenis UltraPulse Encore). 5.0–7.5 for red, soft scars; 12.5 for white, firm scars

DowntimeWith Deep FX 10, redness lasts about 1 week (peaking on days 1–2). SCAAR FX: 2–3 weeks. Minimal at Deep 5.0–7.5

SessionsNot offered as a standalone treatment — it's the resurfacing step in every session of the Skin Therapy Program (Salgyeol Therapy) (a Deep FX 10·10·5%·1-pass routine for all scars). 5.0–15 / SCAAR FX depending on scar depth and fibrosis

IntervalSame interval as the Skin Therapy Program

MaintenanceSemi-permanent (collagen regeneration effect; varies with individual aging) (general guideline, pending doctor's confirmation)

What is it?

A CO2 laser that uses short pulses to precisely deliver energy deep into the dermis (up to about 4mm) while minimizing heat damage to surrounding tissue. It combines two modes: DeepFX (fine, deep-penetrating micro-ablation) and SCAAR FX (a high-energy mode designed for scars).

Who it's for

Deep boxcar and rolling acne scars, trauma/surgical scars, enlarged pores and fine lines. It is reported to stimulate more collagen than standard fractional lasers.
