Non-Ablative Laser Facial Treatments
Looking for a facial treatment that has minimal to no downtime? Non-ablative laser treatments may be for you. Non-ablative laser treatments are those that penetrate but do not break the skin’s barrier. This means simpler aftercare instructions and a quicker bounce back into your normal routine. At our Calgary clinic, we offer seven Non-Ablative treatments for the face: Intraoral Skin Tightening, Lower Face Tightening, SmoothEye Skin Tightening, LipLase Lip Rejuvenation, Laser Acne Treatment and Laser Facial Vein Treatment.
Depending on your treatment of choice, it may be recommended to have multiple treatments for optimal results.

Ablative Laser Facial Treatments
If you don’t mind a little bit of downtime in exchange for some stunning results, these treatments may be ideal for you! As these treatments are ablative, it does mean breaking the outer layers of the skin resulting in a longer recovery period. Our laser works by removing the outer later of the skin and sending energy pulses deep into the layers of the skin to stimulate your body’s natural collagen production. This results in a reduction of fine lines and wrinkles, and improvements in skin elasticity and scar reduction. At Macleod Trail Plastic Surgery, we offer Micro Laser Peels, Deep Fractional Laser Resurfacing, and Fractional + Micro Laser Peel Combinations.
Prior to your Ablative Laser Treatment, our Medical Aesthetician will ensure your skin is numbed to ensure your comfort during the treatment. We recommend that you plan accordingly for downtime after the procedure and carefully follow our Aesthetician’s Aftercare Guide. Downtime can range from five to ten days, depending on the procedure of choice and your body’s natural healing process.
The best time for you to schedule your laser treatments is PRIOR to summer, not only to ensure you have the best skin prior to summer, but also because prolonged sun exposure may make you ineligible for certain laser treatments. As many laser treatments directly target pigment in the skin, many treatments cannot be performed on skin with a tan. Consult with your Medical Aesthetician on what is right for you and how to plan your treatments for optimal results.
Our Medical Aesthetician offers Complimentary Consultations and can help you create a treatment plan tailored to your unique needs. Call us today at (403) 452-7953 to book a consultation.
