How Does a Laser Facial Work?

During your treatment, your skin's outermost layer is gently warmed by light energy emitted by the Laser Facial device, this stimulates your skin cells to produce new collagen in the treated areas. As a result of this increased collagen production, your skin will look smoother, more vibrant and younger.

In addition, the Laser Facial device releases photothermal energy to get rid of the tiny blood vessels that give rise to redness and improve the appearance of hyperpigmentation.

Who Is a Good Candidate for a Laser Facial?

If you have a tanned or darker skin tone, Laser Facial isn’t recommended as it could cause pigment damage and change the colour of the treated area as you have more melanin cells. Fitzpatrick skin type 3 is the highest and safest on the scale suitable for this treatment. Which means before sun exposure, your skin is fair to beige with a golden undertone.

An Laser Facial is a quick and relatively painless way to rejuvenate your skin, reduce sunspots, fix sun damage, and other signs of aging.

What to Expect During Your Laser Facial

Each Laser Facial treatment can last for between 30 minutes to an hour depending on what part of your body is being treated.

Before your treatment begins, your face will be cleaned and you'll be given protective eyewear to put on during your procedure.

A cool gel will be applied to the targeted area to make it easier for the Laser Facial device to glide over your skin and target areas of concern. This gel also protects your skin during the procedure.

Avoiding sun exposure is vital when prepping your skin for Laser Facial. This includes any form of self-tanners from bottles, sunbathing 4 weeks before your treatment to minimise the skin’s sensitivity.

Bruising,minor redness and some swelling are some common side effects but this usually clears up in no time at all.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a laser facial and how does it brighten the skin?+

A laser facial uses bursts of intense light and gentle heat to warm the skin's outer layers, stimulating new collagen and targeting pigment, redness and uneven tone. The result is skin that looks smoother, firmer and more radiant. At Victoria Rose Aesthetics in Pickering, every laser facial is tailored to your skin by Victoria Rose Cyr, RN.

Is a laser facial good for sun damage and hyperpigmentation?+

Yes. A laser facial is one of our favourite post-summer treatments for revising sun damage, sunspots and hyperpigmentation. The light energy targets areas of excess pigment and the tiny vessels behind redness, helping to even out tone and restore a healthy glow.

Who is a good candidate for a laser facial?+

Laser facials are best suited to fair-to-medium skin tones, with Fitzpatrick skin type 3 being the highest recommended on the scale. Tanned or deeper skin tones may not be suitable, as the extra melanin can affect pigment in the treated area. The best way to know if it is right for you is a consultation with Victoria Rose Cyr, RN, in Pickering.

Is there any downtime after a laser facial?+

There is little to no downtime. Mild redness, minor swelling or light bruising can occur but typically settle quickly, allowing most people to return to their day right away. We will walk you through simple aftercare and sun protection to help you get the most from your results.

How long do laser facial results last and how often should I repeat it?+

Results vary with your skin type, age, genetics and aftercare, but the effects of a laser facial typically last between six and twelve months. We generally recommend maintenance sessions every six to twelve months to keep your skin looking bright, even and youthful.
