Other Laser Treatments

Wrinkle Treatment

Fine lines and wrinkles may respond to treatment with the Cynosure IPL Laser, which promotes tightening of the skin as it stimulates collagen production. Lines and wrinkles can also be treated at our downtown Toronto centre with Pixel, a fractionated Erbium laser that targets water in the superficial layers of the skin. This is particularly useful for skin around the eyes. Some topical or oral medication or mild sedation may be necessary. The skin may be red afterward for a couple of weeks, and sunscreen must be worn for 6 months.

Vein Treatment

For our vein treatment patients from Mississauga and Toronto, the Nd Yag laser is quite efficient at treating unsightly superficial leg veins. Small spider veins may disappear after only one treatment, though repeat treatment occasionally is necessary. Treatment takes about 30 minutes, and patients may experience minor stinging. There may be some small amount of bruising after the treatment; however, this usually subsides shortly after patients leave the office.

Red Spots

Our Nd Yag Laser is ideal for treating red spots on the face, which are often due to single enlarged blood vessels, or cherry hemangiomas, which are clusters of blood vessels. This is an ideal treatment for individuals with noticeable blood vessels around the nose. The spots will often be dramatically reduced or disappear after one treatment. There may be brief stinging during the procedure. Occasionally patients may experience bruising.

Acne Scars & Other Kinds of Scarring

Acne scars which are red can be treated with the Nd Yag Laser. However “hill and valley” type acne scarring is best treated with the Pixel, a fractionated Erbium Laser available at the downtown Toronto office.

Laser Treatment Cost

Costs will vary depending on the area treated and the type of treatment required. A specific treatment plan will be created during your consultation.
