The acids that we use are plant-based.  The types of peels we currently have are glyco-lactic, salicylic and glycolic acids.
 
We recommend a complimentary consultation to assess your skin, address your concerns, and customize your treatment plan.

Please contact our office for your complimentary consultation.

SKIN CARE PRODUCTS

Our office carries carefully curated cosmeceuticals for the maintenance of healthy skin.  These products address three areas - prevention, correction, and hydration - for both proactive and reactive treatments.  
 
Good skin care practice is a lifetime journey.  As we mature, the needs of our skin change and therefore our skin care must adapt.  Our focus on acne, dehydration and sun protection in our youth may evolve into concerns about redness, pigmentation, pore size, wrinkles, tone and texture.
 
At Northwest Dermatology and Laser Centre we offer two skin care lines:  Skinceuticals and Pro-Derm.  We also carry additional sunscreens from La Roche Posay and Elta MD.
 
Botox treatments, Revanesse dermal fillers, and Latisse (eyelash growth enhancer) are also offered at our office.

Please contact our office for your complimentary skin care consultation.

LASER TREATMENTS

At Northwest Dermatology and Laser Centre, we stay up to date with the latest in laser technology to offer safe, effective solutions for a range of skin concerns. Our variety of lasers allows us to tailor treatments to your needs and schedule.

We treat concerns such as:

  • Unwanted hair
  • Visible blood vessels
  • Pigmentation and sun damage
  • Fine lines and wrinkles
  • Scars
  • Photo-rejuvenation for overall skin tone and texture

Let us help you take a proactive approach to your skin health.

Laser hair removal offers long-term hair reduction by targeting melanin (color) in the hair root. It’s most effective on dark hair during the active growth phase, which varies by area—about 4 weeks for the face and 8 weeks for the body. Grey, silver and blonde hair cannot be treated with laser.

We can treat hair on most areas of the body, except inside the eye orbit. The number of sessions depends on the area, hair type and individual factors like skin tone and ethnicity.

Pricing is based on the treatment area and time required. 

We use the Cynosure Elite IQ with the Smart Cool System for added comfort and effectiveness.

Treat sun damage, rosacea, broken veins, and uneven skin tone with safe, non-invasive light therapy.

What It Treats:

  • Sun spots and photo-aging
  • Broken capillaries and facial veins
  • Rosacea and redness
  • Enlarged pores and dull skin

How It Works:

After cleansing the skin, a cooling gel is applied and light pulses are delivered to the area. You may feel a mild tingling or warmth—similar to a sunburn. Sessions last 30–60 minutes.

Results & Downtime:

You’ll see gradual improvement after each session. A series of 3–4 treatments, spaced 3–4 weeks apart, is typically recommended. Treated veins may bruise, and dark spots may temporarily darken before fading. Makeup can be applied right after.

Post-Treatment Care:

Avoid sun exposure and use SPF 30+ daily for at least 3–4 weeks. PL treatments should not be done within 3 weeks of extended sun exposure.

Areas Treated:

Face, neck, chest and hands.

Fractional skin resurfacing is an advanced laser treatment that targets signs of aging and skin damage by stimulating your body’s natural healing process. Using precision laser technology, it creates tiny, controlled micro-injuries in the skin—leaving surrounding tissue untouched—to promote collagen production and accelerate skin renewal.

This treatment helps reduce fine lines, wrinkles, acne scars, uneven texture and sun damage.

Non-ablative Skin Rejuvenation can be tailored to your skin type and concerns, and is most commonly used on the face, neck, chest and hands. A series of treatments may be recommended for optimal results.

If you’re looking for smoother, firmer and more radiant skin, fractional laser resurfacing offers a safe and effective option.
