Would you be able to give me any information regarding the Lumensis Ultrapulse 5000 CO2 laser resurfacing?

blackblakeJan 9, 2017
I have looked over the internet and can't find much information about it. There is a doctor that does it, but his office is about 3 hours from my house. His nurse wont give me any info without a consultation first. Anyone know the efficiency of this laser? Is it fractional or non-fractional? Is it better or worse than the active fx, deep fx, total fx? Thanks!
