Laser Facial in Vancouver, BC
A laser facial is a non-invasive skin rejuvenation treatment designed to improve tone, texture, and overall skin clarity. Using the advanced Cynosure Elite iQ®, this treatment targets redness, pigmentation, and sun damage while stimulating collagen for a brighter, more refreshed complexion.
Concerns
Dull and Dehydrated Skin
Hyperpigmentation
Redness
Skin Texture
Treatment Time
30–45 minutes
Downtime
None; mild pinkness for a few hours.
How It Works
The laser energy is absorbed by pigment and vascular targets in the skin, helping break down discoloration and stimulate collagen production. Over time, this results in smoother texture, improved clarity, and a more even skin tone.
Consultation & Planning
Many patients benefit from a series of 3–5 laser facial treatments, spaced 4 weeks apart, depending on skin concerns and goals.

What exactly is the Elite iQ treating under the skin?
Depending on the settings used, the Elite iQ targets excess melanin (pigment), hemoglobin (redness and broken capillaries), and water in the skin to stimulate collagen. This allows one treatment to address uneven tone, sun damage, and early aging simultaneously.
How does this differ from IPL if both treat pigment and redness?
IPL uses broad-spectrum light, while the Elite iQ uses targeted laser wavelengths. Lasers offer more precision, deeper penetration, and improved safety in experienced hands.
Is this treatment just for “maintenance,” or can it correct real issues?
It does both. For some patients, it serves as preventative maintenance. For others, it meaningfully improves sun spots, redness, and early textural changes — especially when done as a series.
If there’s no peeling or downtime, how is collagen being stimulated?
Collagen doesn’t require visible injury to respond. Controlled laser energy gently heats the dermis, signaling fibroblasts to produce new collagen without damaging the skin barrier or outer layers.
Why don’t results look dramatic right away like fillers or peels?
Because nothing is being added or removed. The laser is signaling your skin to function better. Improvements appear progressively as pigment clears and collagen production increases over weeks.
Why is this laser often recommended between stronger treatments?
It maintains skin quality while allowing recovery from more aggressive procedures. Patients use Elite iQ laser facials to preserve results between Pico, CO₂, Morpheus8, or surgical treatments.

Dr. Denton performed blepharoplasty... I was honestly amazed at the results. Not only did it 'literally' open my eyes to just how restricted my vision had been, I feel like it has taken years off me.
Dr. Denton and his entire team were wonderful. Very patient in answering any questions I had... If I ever need to have anything else done - you can bet I will be going back to Dr. Denton and his great team.

Dr. Paul Denton's commitment to quality work and natural-looking results is evident in everything he does. When we discussed a deep plane face and neck lift, the team also introduced the idea of a lip lift—something I hadn’t considered, but it turned out to make a world of difference. I truly felt cared for every step of the way.

My last two surgeries have been done by Dr. Denton. When I say, they go above and beyond to make sure their patients are safe, comfortable, and taken care of I truly mean it.
I come from out of town to have my surgeries done at Refine Cosmetic Surgery and they truly made me feel at home. They are professional, kind, and caring.

Dr. Denton under promises and over delivers! I just turned 60 and made the decision to have Dr. Denton complete a deep plane neck and facelift and lip lift.
I absolutely love the outcome, so very natural. My face looks like me, just the version when I was 36-40. The neck and jawline, amazing. You are in very good hands with Dr. Denton.
