Medical spa treatments in Montreal are an excellent solution if you're looking for non-surgical skin rejuvenation. Although they work well on their own, we find the best approach is to combine advanced aesthetic treatments with potent active ingredients.
At both of our aesthetics clinic locations we offer a wide range of services, experienced medical aesthetics staff and personalized treatments designed to enhance your skin health and radiance.
Below are five active ingredients combinations that complement one another for a synergistic effect:
Anti-wrinkle injections are the top aesthetic treatments to prevent and treat dynamic wrinkles. Caused by repeated facial expressions, if left untreated, dynamic wrinkles can become static, or permanent.
Anti-wrinkle treatments work by relaxing the muscles which allow you to make these facial expressions, leading to smoother, more youthful skin.
Peptides are short chains of amino acids that play a crucial role in beauty and skin rejuvenation. Different peptides are responsible for specific actions on the skin.
For example, there are signal peptides that increase skin firmness, neurotransmitter peptides that smooth wrinkles, carrier peptides that nourish the skin and growth factor peptides for overall skin rejuvenation.
Peptides cocktails are designed to boost collagen production, improve skin texture, and reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles all in one product.
When combined with anti-wrinkle injections, peptides can increase the longevity of neuromodulators and dermal fillers. Regular use can also result in a significant improvement in overall skin health, vitality and texture.
Apply a serum or cream containing peptides morning and night for best results.
Dermal fillers are an excellent option if you're looking to add volume and definition to your facial features. These injectable treatments can enhance the lips, cheeks, chin, temples and jawline, providing a more youthful and refreshed appearance.
Hyaluronic acid is a naturally occurring sugar molecule that's abundant in the body but especially the dermal layers, helping to retain moisture and keep the skin supple and hydrated.
Most dermal fillers are composed of hyaluronic acid which plumps and hydrates your skin from the Skincare products formulated with hyaluronic acid have a similar effect on your epidermis. In fact, it's one of the most popular ingredients in cleansers, lotions and moisturisers because of its hydrating and emollient properties.
Layer a hyaluronic acid serum underneath your moisturizer to get the maximum skin hydration benefit. Since hyaluronic acid pulls moisture from its surroundings, it’s best used on damp skin in conjunction with additional hydrating products.
RF microneedling is a cutting-edge treatment that combines tiny needles with radiofrequency energy to stimulate collagen production and improve skin texture.
This minimally-invasive procedure is effective for treating a variety of skin concerns, including fine lines, wrinkles, skin texture, acne scars and hyperpigmentation. The result is smoother, firmer, and more youthful-looking skin.
Vitamin-C is a powerful antioxidant that brightens skin, reduces hyperpigmentation, and protects against environmental stressors (UV rays, pollution, cigarette smoke) and the resulting damage.
When combined with RF microneedling, vitamin-C can assist with skin repair and collagen-building, enhancing the treatment's effectiveness, leading to a brighter, more even complexion.
Use a high quality, shelf-stable Vitamin-C serum in the morning underneath your moisturizer and sunscreen. Make sure to wait at least three days after your microneedling RF treatment. Using active ingredients too soon can irritate your skin and impede healing.
Acne is a common skin concern that can affect people of all ages. Our laser acne treatments offer a safe and effective solution for reducing acne and preventing future breakouts. These treatments target the underlying causes of acne (bacteria and inflammation), leading to clearer, healthier skin.
Niacinamide, also known as vitamin B3, is a versatile ingredient that can benefit acne-prone skin. It helps to regulate oil production, reduce inflammation, and improve skin barrier function.
When used alongside laser acne treatment, niacinamide can enhance the treatment's effectiveness by stabilizing sebum production. Regular use can promote long-term skin health and a clearer complexion.
Use a niacinamide serum at night as part of your skincare routine. Make sure to wait at least three days after your laser acne treatment to use niacinamide. As with any active ingredients, using them too soon can irritate your skin and interfere with the healing process.
Acne scars can be a source of self-consciousness for many people. Our laser acne scar treatments Frax and RF microneedling, help to reduce the appearance of textured and pigmented scars, promoting smoother and more even skin.
This non-invasive procedure is suitable for most skin types (Fitzpatrick I-IV) and can significantly improve skin texture.
Kojic acid is a natural ingredient known for its skin-lightening properties. It can help to reduce the appearance of dark spots and hyperpigmentation, making it an excellent addition to laser scar treatment. Synergistically, these treatments can lead to a more even and radiant complexion.
Your medical aesthetician will recommend a suitable kojic acid formulation for you and explain how to use it properly. This will be based on the type of product and your skin needs. As with any active ingredients, wait at least three days to start using it.
