Laser Skin Rejuvenation is a non-invasive, non-ablative procedure that uses targeted laser beams to penetrate the skin's layers, promoting new collagen and elastin production in the dermis without disturbing the uppermost layer of skin. This process helps to repair damaged skin cells and encourages the growth of healthy new skin. By stimulating the body's natural ability to heal, Laser Skin Rejuvenation offers a comprehensive solution for a variety of skin concerns.
At Raintree Spa, we take pride in offering a serene and welcoming environment inspired by the tranquility of British Columbia's rainforest. With over 20 years of experience serving clients in Richmond and the greater Vancouver area, we have a commitment to ongoing education, uncompromising standards and a highly skilled service team. Our genuine joy in providing these services creates a relaxing atmosphere where you can feel rejuvenated and at ease.
The Health Canada-approved Cynosure Elite+ laser system combines Nd:YAG and alexandrite lasers, allowing us to offer treatments specifically calibrated for your skin type and concerns. This dual-wavelength capability makes it exceptionally effective at targeting pigmented lesions, including sun damage, age spots and freckles with noticeably even skin tone as a result.
It can also perform vascular treatments, reducing the visibility of veins and capillary-related skin imperfections. Its ability to boost collagen production translates into firmer, more youthful skin, reducing fine lines and enhancing skin elasticity.
Our expert technicians leverage the unique properties of the Cynosure Elite+ to customize each treatment, ensuring maximum comfort and optimal results tailored just for you.
Our Glow and Go Laser Facial is a collagen-boosting, glow-inducing treatment that leaves your skin looking firmer, brighter, and more radiant in just minutes. Targeting dullness, uneven texture, and loss of elasticity, this versatile and soothing facial gives you a radiant complexion, a collagen and elastin boost and overall skin improvements that is perfect pre-event or for a quick lunch-hour glow.
Designed for those looking to treat maturing skin, the All In One Youthful Aging Facial focuses on reducing fine lines, wrinkles, sun spots, and sun damage. This comfortable and efficient treatment delivers noticeable improvements that continue to develop, making it an excellent choice for anyone preparing for a big occasion or simply wanting to maintain youthful skin with optimal results delivered over a short series of 2-3 treatments
Our 5D Laser Facial is the choice for those looking for impressive, long-lasting results in a single treatment with an emphasis on facial sculpting, skin tightening, improving imperfections and softening wrinkles. By combining both long pulse and short wavelength lasers, we can tackle multiple concerns to tighten the jawline, slim the face, lift through the cheeks, treat sun damage and redness along with reducing fine lines and wrinkles. It's a comprehensive, non-invasive solution that delivers a refreshed, youthful appearance.
The long-pulse laser penetrates deep into the skin to target fat layers beneath the surface, especially in areas like the jawline, chin, and neck. This laser gently heats and breaks down fat cells, which your body naturally removes over time, resulting in a slimmer, more contoured appearance. At the same time, the heat stimulates collagen production, helping to firm and tighten the skin for a more lifted look.
Meanwhile, the short-wavelength laser works on the surface, addressing issues like pigmentation (melanin), wrinkles, and vascular lesions (such as broken blood vessels caused by weather, sun exposure and rosacea). The shorter wavelength is absorbed by melanin and blood vessels, breaking up dark spots and reducing redness, while also promoting smoother, more even skin tone. It also targets fine lines and wrinkles, encouraging new collagen growth to improve skin texture and elasticity.
By combining both lasers in one treatment, we can tackle multiple concerns at once—sculpting fat, tightening skin, improving pigmentation, and softening wrinkles. It's a comprehensive, non-invasive solution for a refreshed, youthful appearance. The duration of the effects varies from person to person, but it generally lasts around 6-12 months. You can have 1-2 treatments per year to maintain and improve on your results.
Laser Skin Rejuvenation is suitable for adults of all genders who are looking to improve their skin's appearance without undergoing invasive procedures. Ideal candidates include those with:
Contraindications include active skin infections, certain chronic skin conditions and individuals who are pregnant or breastfeeding. You should also wait at least 6 months after taking prescription acne treatments like Accutane. A consultation at our laser clinic will help determine if Elite+ is right for you!
Not all laser treatments are created equal. CO2, ablative, non-ablative, fractional…how to choose the right one for you? Discover the differences between these popular cosmetic procedures:
| Feature | Cynosure Elite+ Rejuvenation | Ablative Laser Resurfacing | Fractional Resurfacing |
|---|---|---|---|
| Invasiveness | Non-invasive | More intensive | Moderately invasive |
| Mechanism of Action | Stimulates collagen production | Removes outer layers of skin | Creates microscopic wounds |
| Target Areas | Fine lines, mild pigmentation, texture | Deep wrinkles, scars, significant pigmentation | Deep wrinkles, scars, overall resurfacing |
| Downtime | Minimal to none | Moderate to significant | Moderate |
| Recovery Time | Hours to a few days | Days to weeks | Days to a week |
| Side Effects | Mild redness and swelling | Redness, swelling and peeling | Redness, mild swelling and peeling |
| Ideal Candidates | All skin types, mild to moderate concerns | Deeper wrinkles, significant damage | Moderate to severe skin damage |
| Frequency of Treatment | Multiple sessions over time | Often a single session | 1-3 sessions typically needed |
The results of Laser Skin Rejuvenation become visible progressively. Immediately after the treatment, you may notice a slight redness, similar to a mild sunburn, which typically subsides within a few hours. Within a few days, your skin will start to appear smoother and more radiant. Optimal results are usually seen after multiple sessions, with noticeable improvements in skin texture, tone and overall appearance.
During the treatment, a laser device is passed over the skin, emitting pulses of light that target specific skin concerns. The procedure is generally painless, with most patients experiencing only a mild warming sensation. Post-treatment, you can expect minimal downtime, with slight redness or swelling that typically resolves within a few hours. Over the following weeks, your skin will gradually improve as new collagen and elastin form.
The cost of Laser Skin Rejuvenation varies based on factors such as the treatment area, the number of sessions required and the specific type of laser used. To get an estimate, please contact us for a consultation today!
