Treatments

If you are like most people, you’d like to reduce the appearance of facial wrinkles, furrows, and lines. Botox – a treatment that most people are familiar with – is in a class of injectable medications called neuromodulators, which help reduce dynamic lines caused by repeated facial expressions such as squinting, smiling, and frowning. Botox is also used to treat medical conditions like excessive sweating and migraines. Other neuromodulators include Xeomin ®, and Dysport ®.

Learn more about neuromodulators and what they treat:

• Neuromodulators Overview.
• Botox Cosmetic
  Botox reduces the appearance of horizontal forehead wrinkles, glabellar lines between the eyebrows, frown lines, and wrinkles around the eyes caused by repeated squinting and smiling.
• Botox Therapeutic
  Though Botox is primarily a cosmetic treatment it is often an effective treatment for migraines and hyperhidrosis (excessive sweating).
• Dysport
  Dysport targets crow’s feet and forehead wrinkles.
• Xeomin
  Xeomin reduces the appearance of moderate to severe facial lines. It is an effective treatment for frown lines, forehead lines, crow’s feet, and “bunny scrunch” lines.

Chemical peels are a quick and effective treatment that evens out skin tone, reduces pore size and improves the overall texture of the skin. Some skin peels also reduce the appearance of active acne and acne scarring. Don’t let the word “chemical” scare you. Peels use naturally occurring chemicals or acids often derived from plant sources. Learn more about Chemical Peels.

Our Vancouver, Canada skin treatments and laser spa offers many dermal filler treatments, each designed to target different types of facial sagging, wrinkles, folds, or volume loss in the face. A consultation will determine which filler is right for you.

Dermal fillers are non-invasive, injection treatments that require very little downtime and cause minimal discomfort. Because each filler is slightly different, please consult each treatment page for specifics about results timelines and aftercare.

• Dermal Fillers Overview.
• Juvederm ®
• Juvederm Volbella ™
  Volbella increases lip volume while improving lip contours and diminishing vertical lines. Volbella is a non-invasive alternative to lip augmentation surgery.
• Juvederm Volift ™
  Volift can reduce deep facial skin depressions and folds such as the nasolabial folds – the often deep folds than run from the bottom corners of the nose to the outside corners of the mouth. Volift can also restore lost lip volume and enhance lip contours.
• Juvederm Voluma ™ XC
  Voluma restores lost volume to the mid-face. A single treatment can smooth the mid-face, restore youthful fullness to the checks, and improve chin contours and volume.
• Perlane ® and Perlane-L ®
  Perlane is a treatment that reduces severe facial wrinkles and adds volume. Perlane-L includes lidocaine – a numbing agent that increases client comfort.
• Radiesse ®
  Radiesse treats moderate to severe facial wrinkles and folds, such as nasolabial Radiesse may also be used for hand wrinkles and folds.
• Restylane ® and Restylane-L ®
  Restylane treatments address lost facial volume, adding fullness and reducing moderate to severe facial wrinkles and skin folds. Restylane-L is the same product, but contains lidocaine to increase client comfort.
• Sculptra ®
  Sculptra is the first dermal filler that provides gradual improvement to deep facial folds – replacing lost collagen over time. Because results are gradual, Sculptra doesn’t give you away. Sculptra is typically used to treat the nasolabial folds between the nose and mouth, smile lines, hollow cheeks and temples. An average of three treatments over a period of a few months provide results that can last for up to two years!
• PuraPlus™
  PuraPlus™, popularized on TV as the “vampire facelift” uses your own blood platelets to stimulate cell production and your body’s natural collagen production, improving the skin’s underlying structure. Because PuraPlus™ is made with your own blood, it is very well tolerated with virtually no chance of allergic reaction. PuraPlus™ is a very flexible treatment that can add facial volume to upper, mid and lower face, smooth fine facial lines, and treat areas that are difficult to address with other fillers: tear troughs, hands, and neck.
• Teosyal ® Redensity (II)
  Teosyal Redensity (II) was designed specifically for the treatment of eye circles (eye bags). Not only is Teosyal an effective filler for eye circles, but it continues to work by delivering nourishing amino acids, antioxidants, vitamins and minerals to the skin for replenishing results that last.

Whether you want to reduce the appearance of acne scars, melasma, age spots, surgical scars or stretch marks, Fraxel laser treatments offer significant, long lasting improvement, are non-invasive, and require minimal downtime. Fraxel also stimulates the growth of collagen – your skin’s support structure. Our Vancouver medispa uses the Fraxel 1550/1927 dual laser which treats both superficial and deep tissue. Treatments take about an hour and a few treatments may be required for optimal results.

Liposonix uses high intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) to destroy fat cells permanently.

Glowing, smooth, even skin texture and tone is a hallmark of youthful skin, and, achievable – even for those of us with skin that shows the signs of aging. Microdermabrasion is a skin resurfacing treatment that exfoliates the top layer of dead, damaged skin – the stratum corneum – revealing smoother, even skin beneath. Our Vancouver, BC medispa and laser clinic uses a state-of-the-art, diamond-tipped microdermabrasion wand that applies no foreign or abrasive particles to the skin. Microdermabrasion also stimulates blood flow and promotes the growth of collagen, the skin’s main structural protein, responsible for making your skin appear firmer. The treatments takes approximately 30 minutes and 4 treatments are usually required for optimal results.
