Vascular Lasers Edmonton
Vascular lasers are a category of non-invasive laser treatments offered at our Dermapure clinics in Edmonton. The technology delivers concentrated light energy selectively absorbed by hemoglobin in visible blood vessels, supporting the gradual reduction of redness and vascular irregularities at the skin’s surface.
Vascular lasers can help address diffuse redness, ruby angiomas, dilated capillaries and superficial vascular lesions on the face, including delicate areas such as the nose, with appropriate cases also treatable elsewhere on the body. Multiple sessions are typically required, and the treatment may be received on its own or as part of a personalized plan that pairs it with complementary in-clinic options such as medical-grade skincare protocols.
Because every patient’s skin, concerns and medical history are different, vascular lasers at our Dermapure clinics in Edmonton always begin with a personalized consultation. Together with your specialist, you will assess whether vascular lasers are the most appropriate option for you and discuss a realistic treatment plan, the expected results and the possible side effects.

Cleaning and Application of Specialty Products
Removing the gel-when applicable-and cleaning the skin signals the end of a session. To calm the heat sensation and to protect the skin, a moisturizer is carefully applied to the entire treatment area, followed by a mineral sunscreen. Occasionally, and at the discretion of staff, skin may be left in the open air to recover, which is most often the case for the treatment of pigment spots.
Follow-Up & Maintenance
It normally takes between 2 and 5 sessions with minimum one-month intervals to see optimal results, depending on your skin’s initial condition. This is due to your skin’s built-in memory-it remembers lesions as far back as 10 years. It is therefore important to combine the therapeutic effects of light to help improve your complexion and to significantly correct spots. Subsequently, a light yearly maintenance session will ensure that your results are preserved over time.
Contraindications
Women who are pregnant or breastfeeding should postpone this type of treatment, as well as anyone who has been exposed to sunlight in the months before or after each session. Sunbeds/tanning booths, the use of self-tanning products and photo-sensitizing medication are all forbidden.
