A facial is a skin treatment that deeply cleanses pores, exfoliates the skin, removes dead skin and impurities and promotes a clear, clean and hydrated complexion. The ultimate goal of a facial is to nourish the face and rejuvenate the skin, making the skin look younger and healthier. After a consultation to assess your skin and your particular concerns, we will create a facial specially for you

Unlike most laser machines that only provide one type of laser, the 5D uses 755nm & 1064nm dual-wavelength long-pulse lasers. The 5D Laser Face Lift also has multiple spot sizes and pulse width selection, which can penetrate deep into the skin’s underlying layers and provide personalized treatment for different skin conditions. By stimulating collagen proliferation, it achieves firming of the skin, improving facial contours, and more.
Adjusting to an ultra-long pulse width, it promotes superficial fat lifting and tightens and lifts the SMAS fascia layer between the superficial and deep fat layers. It can also selectively and effectively remove deep fat, achieving a soft and firm facial contour.
The short pulse width of the 1064nm wavelength laser acts on the superficial and epidermal layers of the dermis, targeting facial aging issues such as enlarged pores, sensitive skin, and nasolabial folds and marionette lines, achieving long-lasting effects of brightening skin tone, anti-sensitivity, and smoothing wrinkles.
Using the 755nm wavelength laser, it can effectively remove superficial melanin, achieving the effect of lightening skin tone, whitening and rejuvenating the skin.
The procedure is performed with cool air and is comfortable and painless. You may feel a bit of tingling at certain stages of the procedure, but the procedure is overall comfortable and does not have any downtime. You may be pink for a few hours after the procedure.
You will be able to feel and see results right away. Full results after each treatment can be seen between 6-8 weeks stage, the skin is noticeably tighter, brighter, smoother, has more glow and is lifted.
Results vary from person to person depending on their condition, but generally you can expect results to last between 6 -12months. Once you receive desired results, it is recommended to have 1-2 treatments per year.
For optimal results and depending on concerns of the client, 2-3 sessions are recommended 6 weeks apart.
This two-step procedure begins with the AFA Clay Mask. Applied to the face for five minutes, the mask draws out impurities and absorbs excess oil, prepping the skin for the next phase. The mask is then carefully removed with water. Following this, the AFA Peel is applied, which exfoliates dead skin cells and removes any lingering impurities with minimal skin irritation.
AFA, which stands for Amino Acid Filaggrin based Antioxidants, are amino acids naturally present in the body. These components enhance the skin’s capacity to retain moisture and contribute to its nourishment and protection. Amino acids are vital for maintaining skin hydration and elasticity, while antioxidants counteract free radicals, preventing premature aging and cellular damage. By combining these elements, AFAs offer a variety of skincare benefits, including hydration, protection, and anti-aging properties.
Blemishes & Acne, Redness, Uneven Skin Texture, Uneven Skin Pigmentation, Irritated & Dry Skin, Aging Skin Wrinkles & Fine Lines.
There is little to no downtime. You may experience redness for a few hours after the treatment.
You can start to see results after the first treatment. For optimal results for more extreme cases a series of 4-6 treatments every 2-3 weeks is recommended.
The Fire & Ice Facial is safe for all skin types
Nope. Zero.
The number of Fire & Ice Facials necessary to achieve desired results varies depending on the person, skin concerns, conditions and goals.
Here is a suggestion:
This treatment is not recommended for anyone who has had Botox injections within the last 1-13 days, actively using retinols within the last 7 days or taking Accutane or other similar products within the last 6 months.
We get it! Why wouldn’t you be nervous when a person holds a razor blade to your face??!! Dermaplaning uses a razor to exfoliate dead skin cells, surface debris and peach fuzz that traps dirt and oils.
Simply put NO. This is a myth. The hair will grow back but will not change color or become more course. Because it was cut straight across with the razor, it will feel coarser when growing back. If you let it grow out more than 2mm, you will notice it softens and is the same as it was before dermaplaning. There’s no traveling bearded woman happening here ladies!
There is no downtime. It is pain free. You may leave a tad pink but that will go away in a few hours.
A treatment is about 30-45 minutes. We recommend booking every 4-6 weeks.
By removing the initial layer of skin, a peel (mild or strong) or facial can penetrate the skin easier resulting in a more effective treatment. Together they will team up to target all your skin concerns such as aging, sunspots, and skin damage.
We would like to say yes, forever and ever. The truth is, every person is different. The follicles that are currently there we can zap away. Hormone changes in the body etc. create new follicles. Unfortunately, we have no control over this.
We say a solid 6 treatments usually gets everything. The Brazilian and the bikini areas are very stubborn. These areas will usually take a few more treatments.
We use a cold air simmer along with the laser in order to minimize any discomfort. For those who are extra sensitive, we provide numbing cream to be applied beforehand at an extra fee.
We suggest shaving the evening before your treatment. You cannot be tanned or using self tanners. This is because you will be burned. We suggest 4 weeks post tan before receiving a treatment. To alleviate extra discomfort, we recommend women schedule around their cycle. If you come during your cycle, you may be more sensitive.
5-7 days. You will be able to continue with life after treatment. The spot treated will get dark brown, and within 5-7 days will flake off.
15 minutes
The actual treatment feels like a mild bacon grease splatter. We then cool the area with cold air.
We can treat markings associated with sun damage, age spots and beauty marks. We cannot treat hyperpigmentation areas related to the natural darkening of underarms, knees etc.
1-3 treatments.
The discomfort is minimal. We use cold air on the area after the treatment.
For the superficial veins, most often they are gone immediately. Others can be seen disappearing over the course of weeks. Some veins will diminish in size and colour after the first treatment but will need another treatment to fully disappear.
We suggest that you do not go in a hot tub, bath or sauna for 5 days following leg vein clearance. No vigorous activity such as running etc. is recommended for a few days following treatment. This gives time for the vein to start to heal and not have pressure put on it.

Think of the HydroJelly Mask as a massive hydration-packed Jell-O shot for your face—only this time, you’re not 18, and there’s no pub crawl bus or random person holding your hair back. You’ve levelled up… now WE hold your hair! Dot Calm offers a variety of Jelly masks that hydrate, nourish and work their magic on your skin. The best part? No hangover and definitely no empty calories.
This jelly mask provides deep hydration and a natural cooling effect while forming a soft, vacuum-like seal over your skin. Under that seal, the mask works to push nourishing ingredients deep into your skin, leaving it refreshed and radiant. We especially love pairing this treatment with a dermaplaning and/or peel session to elevate your results!
The Laser Skin Rejuvenation Facial can help with deep collagen production, pigmentation reduction, softening of fine lines, skin discoloration, rosacea, skin texture issues, sun damage and skin tightening. The cynosure Elite+ facials use 1064 YAG that allows people with skin type 1-4 to receive treatment. During the course of this non ablative treatment, your skin health visibly improves. The laser emits short pulses of high-density light deep into the dermas that are absorbed by the target areas of the skin. The absorbed energy is converted into heat which stimulates cellular response without damaging the skin. There is no discomfort and no down time for this treatment. 3-6 sessions, 3-4 weeks apart typically are required as collagen production takes time. This treatment really does work. Even the boss gets it!
*Cannot be tanned or using self-tanning products.
Say goodbye to peach fuzz, dull skin, and stubborn skin issues like acne, clogged pores, and uneven tone with this gentle exfoliation treatment. Dermaplaning leaves your skin feeling soft, glowing, with improved texture and softened fine lines. It’s a game-changer for acne-prone skin, hyperpigmentation, rough patches, or simply as regular skin maintenance to keep your complexion fresh and radiant. Dermaplaning enhances your skin’s texture and gives you that “lit from within” glow—it’s like a real-life Instagram filter for your face!
After thoroughly cleansing your skin, we exfoliate unhealthy layers of skin from your face (and yes, it’s oddly satisfying to watch). For even better results, we recommend pairing your dermaplaning treatment with a mild peel to target bacteria, calm redness, and boost radiance. Your skin will be irresistibly smooth—think silk pajamas smooth, except this time the silk is your skin, and pajamas are optional!
Sometimes we want something mild instead of strong, gentle instead of rough, subtle instead of intense…ok, you get the idea. With the mild medical peel, when paired with a dermaplaning treatment, you get a safe and effective treatment for your skin, with no downtime to slow you down from your rockin’ lifestyle. The mild medical peel can remove damaged skin cells, revealing healthier skin underneath without the weeklong scary exfoliated face. A different kind of stripping down than perhaps you’re used to, but with results that are just as much fun! Results can last for one to two months. The peel solution will be applied to the area being treated (face or neck) ever so gently to reveal smooth glowing skin with improved texture and decreased acne. Treating things like sun damage, acne, wrinkles, fine lines, acne scars, hyperpigmentation and uneven skin tone or redness (to name just a few), the mild chemical peel can be your best friend, minus the embarrassing stories about you!
The Fire & Ice Facial by iS Clinical is a popular treatment among Hollywood to get ‘red carpet ready’. The unique two step process combination of warming and cooling sensations will provide immediate results with no downtime or peeling. It’s designed to rapidly and safely resurface the skin, diminishing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles while smoothing, softening, and increasing cellular renewal. Its really effective in treating issues like acne and hyperpigmentation. Your skin will be left glowing bright and not just from the paparazzi camera flashes!
