Intense Pulsed Light: PhotoFacial
Vascular & Pigment Spot Treatment $50 | $249 PhotoFacial: Face, Neck & Chest
Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) Photofacials are a key treatment for photoaged skin. SharpLight’s IPL targets unwanted pigment, broken capillaries, and fine lines caused by sun damage, leaving you with clearer, brighter, and more evenly textured skin. An IPL photo facial is an effective treatment for the face, neck, hands, and chest.
-
Vascular Lesions
For the treatment of spider veins and some cherry spots.
The light pulse targets the red pigment in the blood, which heats and damages the vessel without affecting the skin or other tissues.
Pigmented Lesions
For the treatment of age spots, freckles, flat pigmented birthmarks and other skin discoloration problems such as poikiloderma and erythromelanosis of the neck
Light pulses target the melanin on the skin’s surface, which heats and destroys melanin to remove the discoloration.
Fine Lines
By heating the deeper layer of the skin, IPL stimulates collagen growth and helps improve the skin’s texture, reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
-
The number of sessions varies depending on each individual’s skin colour type and degree and depth of photoaging.
Skin damage is treated in layers because this is how excessive pigment presents in the skin.
Superficial broken capillaries may require several sessions to remove the lesion effectively.
Typically, three to six sessions are required to achieve the overall improvement of the skin.
-
You may feel mild discomfort and a little heat during a session. The skin is cooled after your treatment to provide more comfortable and safer treatment.
-
During the first few days following your IPL treatment session, the treated skin may be red and slightly swollen. In the following 7-10 days, brown spots will become darker, possibly crust then flake off. Broken capillaries may appear blurred or bluish or may disappear completely.

Laser Skin Resurfacing
$450: Face and Neck | $550: Face, Neck and Chest | $400: Backs of Hands
Ablative skin resurfacing is a highly effective laser treatment for improving skin texture and reducing wrinkles by heating and vaporizing small columns of skin, triggering a healing process. Fractional ablative resurfacing targets only a portion of the skin, offering shorter recovery times and fewer risks compared to full resurfacing. Sharplight erbium YAG fractional resurfacing is minimally invasive, precisely targeting damaged areas while preserving healthy tissue. This treatment reveals smoother, youthful skin, and is customized to achieve your desired results.
-
In general, Fractionated Erbium-YAG Laser Skin Treatment might be the best option for you if:
You are interested in achieving optimal results and willing to allow 2–5 days of post-care.
You have fine lines and wrinkles you’d like to diminish.
You'd like to reduce sunspots and the appearance of pores.
You want to reduce the appearance of acne or surgical scars.
You'd like to improve the texture of your skin.
-
Prior to treatment, we apply a numbing cream to the skin for 45 minutes.
You will likely feel a mild to moderate heat sensation.
-
Because the Laser energy is so precise, the pain factor and side effects are significantly reduced compared to other resurfacing devices,.
You may experience discomfort and swelling in the treated area a few days following treatment, accompanied by irritation, itchiness, or a mild heat sensation (similar to a sunburn) that occurs within 72 hours after the treatment.
Healing, including redness and a sandpaper-like texture, may continue the following 1–2 weeks post-treatment.
-
The number of treatments required varies based on skin condition and desired outcome. Typically 1-3 sessions of Fractional Er:Yag Laser Treatments are required. The interval between treatments is 6-8 weeks.
Results can be refreshed on an annual basis.
-
Patients often notice immediate results, with the full effects becoming more evident as the skin's natural healing process continues.
The most significant improvement to texture, pores, wrinkles, and scars should be noted within the following two months.
It should be noted that the improvement process may continue for up to 6 months following the final treatment.
Infrared Skin Firming
Single Treatment: $249 | 30-60 min
Over time, especially with the onset of perimenopause, your skin loses 1% of its collagen per year, resulting in your skin losing its bounce. Sharplight’s IR technology firms and improves skin quality for a more youthful appearance. Broadband light works deep within your skin to naturally stimulate the production of new collagen, achieving effective results without the risks and costs associated with more invasive procedures. This very comfortable treatment can rejuvenate collagen- and elastin-depleted skin painlessly with only mild (if any) visible redness, and provides long-lasting results.
-
IR skin tightening is a non-surgical, non-invasive skin rejuvenation treatment.
It uses infrared light energy to penetrate the tissue under the skin’s surface, leaving the top layer of skin unaffected.
-
It is not designed to treat significant loose or extra skin, such as after massive weight loss, which may be better suited to surgical approaches, but is suitable to tone and tighten skin on the face and neck. Results do vary significantly between individuals.
-
The IR procedure uses a safe level of infrared light that is able to penetrate the deeper layers of skin. The light energy heats the water in the skin tissue and causes collagen fibres to contract and tighten.
It also stimulates fibroblasts to repair skin cells and produce new collagen. This helps to smooth out fine lines and wrinkles and gives long-lasting firmness to sagging skin.
Because the Sharplight’s IR light energy only heats the deeper layer of skin that contains collagen, it leaves the top, surface layer unaffected.
-
Most people benefit from a course of six treatments.
A few may need up to eight treatments, depending on their skin condition and expectations.
During your consultation for the procedure, we will discuss the number and frequency of treatments that you need to achieve optimal results.
-
You should plan to come every two to four weeks consistently and maintain your results a few times per year as needed

Spider Vein treatment
Starts at $50 | 20 min or more Depending on Lesions
The Sharplight Nd Yag laser and VP Dual IPL treats a broad range of vessels, from tiny spider veins to Cherry Angiomas on the face and body.
Nd Yag Laser/IPL delivers pulses of light energy that cause the blood within the vein to coagulate, eventually destroying the vessel, which is later reabsorbed by your own body. Blood flow will then be redirected to veins deeper below your skin's surface, where it should be
-
Broken blood vessels on the face (telangiectasias)
Nose veins
Spider angiomas
Cherry angiomas
Small leg veins
-
Results vary depending on the patient and the condition that is being treated. Typically, patients may need 1–3 treatments for smaller facial veins. Treatment intervals are 4–8 weeks. Larger veins or other vascular lesions may need more treatments.
-
After the treatment, you may have some redness and bruising, but it can be hidden with makeup. Blistering and scarring are rare.
-
When you come in for a treatment, we will cleanse the area that we are treating, then apply a small amount of ultrasound gel to the skin. You will wear laser safety goggles to shield your eyes. You will feel some heat and the sensation of an elastic band hitting the skin when the laser/IPL is activated. The treatment only takes a few minutes, and the laser exposure time is only seconds. After the treatment is over, we apply some aloe vera gel to the skin.
You should never pick the skin after treatment, and always protect your skin from the sun. The discomfort is brief and minimal, lasting only seconds.
You can wash your face as normal and put makeup on right away.
If you need another treatment we recommend waiting 4-8 weeks in between treatments.
