Focusing on you and your confidence, Dot Calm is pleased to offer a smorgasbord of skin aesthetic treatments to give you the results you want. We also offer treatment options to give you results you didn’t even know you wanted! From anti-aging treatments to sun damage to acne, to rosacea, we have something for you. There’s no shame in being vain! Our skin aesthetic services include (but aren’t limited to):

Collagen Boosting Treatment!
While we promise we don’t generally encourage self-inflicted wounds, microneedling is the exception! Microneedling uses a 12 point needle cartridge to gently puncture the skin from 1 – 2mm. These controlled micro injuries kick starts collagen and elastin production in the skin, producing a softer, youthful glow and complexion. Through a series of microneedling treatments, the collagen and elastin increase to the point fine lines, acne scaring & sun damage reduce or disappear. . Scared of needles? Don’t be. This is not that kind of needle. Concerned about discomfort? Don’t worry, we numb ya!

We recommend completing a series of 3-5 treatments for best results. Keep in mind that this treatment does require 24 hours downtime due to excess redness following treatment, so you may want to reschedule that modelling gig or blind date. Or, if you’re feeling bold, just embrace the red and go about your day! Skin will continue to peel slightly for 3-4 days though it’s nothing you haven’t already experienced if you’ve ever fallen asleep on the beach without sun protection (we’ve all been there).

We have outdone ourselves with this new cutting-edge plant-based technology! EXO|E Revitalizing Complex is a complete and perfectly formulated set of active natural plant cell factors. These tiny powerhouses derived from plant cells are like the beauty messengers of the cellular world.  Using Microneedling, Exosome facial is an ideal and natural treatment to reduce and reverse signs of aging, sunspots, rosacea, acne scaring, dark circles under the eyes, hollowed face, and skin integrity issues.  It also treats stretch marks and hair loss.

It doesn’t just temporarily mask the signs of aging; it promotes long-lasting cell rejuvenation. It’s like hitting the reset button on your skin. This treatment produces rapid rejuvenation results unlike any other growth factor therapy out there. NO JOKE! This is why we are so excited about this.

You will receive a 5-day pre-treatment detox exosome serum kit as well as a 5-day post-treatment repair exosome serum kit.

(Please read the FAQ section for all the information about exosomes.)

Do not mistake this treatment for a bad Halloween costume! Well, the idea is that the growth factors in your blood will work their magic, stimulating collagen production, reducing wrinkles, and giving your skin that youthful glow. You might even catch a glimpse of your reflection and think, “Wow, I look immortal!” This growth factor facial is an add-on to your traditional Microneedling facial. 

Our qualified team will draw your blood (don’t worry, we will leave some in you), spin it, and take out the necessary growth factors and apply them to your face during your Microneedling treatment. Using your own blood platelets is a very effective way to restore and repair your skin in a speedier fashion than traditional Microneedling. 

So, if you’re up for a skincare adventure and don’t mind a little blood, the vampire facial might just be your ticket to a frightfully fabulous complexion. Just remember to leave the garlic and wooden stakes at home!

FAQs

Exosomes are part of the cells responsible for relaying signals from one group of cells to another. Exosomes work as messengers between cells, transmitting important information that affects regeneration. They’re like the motivational speakers of the skincare universe, encouraging your cells to produce more collagen, elastin, and all the good stuff that keeps your skin plump and firm. This makes exosomes an important part of anti-aging therapy. As we age, skin cells lessen their ability to regenerate. Exosomes slow the aging process by encouraging skin regeneration on a cellular level. This is why exosome rejuvenation therapy is so effective when applied back onto the skin.

Our EXO|E treatment kit has a concentrated dose of plant-based factors, anti-inflammatory factors, VegF and over thousands of additional factors per application.

This specific Exosome facial treatment:

  • Pairs best with Microneedling 
  • Has a blend that signals the skin to stop detrimental inflammation
  • Up to a 3X faster recovery with Microneedling treatments
  • 10X stimulation of collagen, elastin, and hyaluronic acid in one treatment
  • Offers 20X the amount of cell signalling

What are Exosome Therapy’s rapid benefits?

  • No downtime or blood draw
  • Tightens and firms the skin
  • Improves pigmentation, age spots, fine lines and wrinkles
  • Rosacea, eczema, acne, psoriasis
  • Dark under-eye circles
  • Sunken under eye
  • Skin texture and integrity
  • Sunken cheeks
  • Improve scars and stretch marks
  • Regenerate and regrow hair, Improve quality and density of hair

We recommend 2-3 Microneedling Exosome treatments to start getting optimal results with a yearly follow-up.

Wow, someone is certainly impatient, aren’t we? It takes one to know one because SO ARE WE! We are seeing great results as early as 14 days after initial treatment. Results will continue to improve for months to come. If this isn’t fast enough for you, then we suggest returning to your regularly scheduled programing of using over filtered pictures cus they’re ain’t no pleasing you.  (wink)

Every person is different because of their age, skin chemistry and concerns.  After you reach desired results, you will have to have 1 yearly maintenance treatment.  We recommend adding the repair and detox serum to your regular skin routine. 

The Vampire Facial is a treatment without the bats and the full moon.

We extract some blood from you. Don’t worry, we won’t drain you completely. Then, we take that blood and spin it around in a fancy centrifuge, to separate the good stuff. The magic ingredient we’re after is the platelet-rich plasma (PRP), which is packed with growth factors.

Now comes the fun part. We microneedle PRP on your face.

So, if you’re up for a spooky skincare adventure and don’t mind a little blood, the vampire facial might just be your ticket to a frightfully fabulous complexion. Just remember to leave the garlic and wooden stakes at home!

The vampire facial isn’t an instant transformation. You will not walk out of the clinic with vampire fan club at your doorstep. It takes time for the magic to happen.

Typically, within a few weeks to a couple of months, you’ll start noticing some subtle changes in your skin. Maybe the fine lines will look a bit less prominent, or your complexion will have a slightly more youthful radiance.

Of course, each person’s skin is unique, so the timeline can vary. Some lucky people might see results sooner, while others might have to be patient for a bit longer. Just think of it as a suspenseful plot twist in your skincare journey.

It takes time to achieve eternal youth.  You will need 3-5 treatments depending on areas of concern. 

Facials

Let’s “face” it, we know what your face needs!

Variety is the spice of life! Which is why Dot Calm Wellness is pleased to offer a variety of facials, depending on your desires and/or goals. From acne fighting and tightening facials to a customized hydration facial, Dot Calm has you covered (on your face that is). We have various facial options, including the Hydro Jelly mask facial, the laser skin rejuvenation facial, dermaplaning and the mild medical peel. We have various facial options, including:

Basically, the HydroJelly Mask is like a MASSIVE hydration and nutrient rich Jell-O shot for your face! Only, you’re not 18 anymore, and you won’t be vomiting on a pub crawl bus while a random person holds your hair back for you. You’ve upgraded…Now WE HOLD YOUR HAIR! Dot Calm provides a wide variety of Jelly masks that hydrate and do magical things to your skin. The best part…NO HANGOVER, or empty calories.

The HydroJelly Mask Facial has the texture of jelly and provides full hydration and natural cooling effect all at once. It also creates a soft vacuum-like seal completely over the skin. Under the vacuum seal, the mask pushes hydration, and nourishing ingredients deep into the skin. We particularly love pairing this treatment with a dermaplaning session.

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 that peach fuzz, weathered layer of skin and acne using this exfoliation treatment. Dermaplaning leaves your skin soft, glowing improved texture, and softened fine lines. Don’t even get us started on how effective it is for acne prone skin and the dreaded maskne. It’s like a real-life Instagram filter for your face!

After thoroughly cleansing your skin, we use a surgical blade (not as scary as you think!) to PAINLESSLY exfoliate unhealthy skin from your face (and yes, it is strangely satisfying to watch) We highly suggest combining your dermaplaning treatment with a mild peel to further improve your results. The peel is a game changer for bacteria causing acne. Your skin will be oh so smooth. Think smooth silk pajamas, except the silk is your skin, and the pajamas are optional!

Speak with one of our skincare specialists to determine if this rejuvenating skin treatment is right for you. You can book a consultation at Dot Calm Wellness Centre by sending an email to: hello@dotcalmwellness.ca or book your treatment online.

No Downtime Here!

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 exfoliating face. A different kind of stripping down than perhaps you’re used to, but with results that are just as much fun! The peel solution will be applied to the area being treated (face, or neck) ever so gently to reveal a smooth, glowing skin with improved texture and decreased acne.

Treating things like sun damage, acne, wrinkles and 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 on you!
