What Is a Skin & Laser Clinic?
A skin and laser clinic is a professional treatment space that combines skincare treatments (facials, peels, microneedling) with laser and light-based treatments (hair removal, tattoo removal, skin rejuvenation). Unlike a day spa, the focus is on targeted results for specific concerns such as acne, pigmentation, fine lines or unwanted hair, delivered with medical-grade devices by trained operators.
In Coquitlam, these clinics serve clients from across the Tri-Cities, including Port Coquitlam, Port Moody, Burnaby, New Westminster and Maple Ridge.

Laser Treatments
Laser Hair Removal
Laser hair removal uses concentrated light to target hair follicles and reduce hair growth over time. It is popular for the face, underarms, bikini line, legs and full body, and many clients choose it to avoid razor burn, ingrown hairs and frequent waxing.
Because laser works on hair in its active growth phase, you need a series of sessions spaced weeks apart. The result is long-term hair reduction, and results vary by hair colour, skin tone and hormones. Curious about the discomfort? Read our guide: Does laser hair removal hurt more than waxing? For pricing details, see laser hair removal cost in Coquitlam.
Laser Tattoo Removal
Laser tattoo removal breaks down tattoo ink into tiny particles that your body gradually clears. Most tattoos need multiple sessions, and the number depends on ink colour, size, depth and how old the tattoo is. Some colours fade more slowly than others. Our full guide explains the process, results and what to expect.
Clearlift + IPL Skin Rejuvenation
Clearlift is a laser-based treatment used for skin tightening and fine lines, while IPL (intense pulsed light) targets pigment such as sun spots. Combined, they address tone, texture and firmness in one plan. Learn more about laser anti-aging options in Coquitlam.
Facials and Skin Treatments
Medical Facial
A medical facial is customised to a specific concern, such as acne, pigmentation or early signs of aging, using professional-grade techniques and products. It goes deeper than a relaxation facial and is guided by an assessment of your skin.
Hydrafacial
A Hydrafacial cleanses, exfoliates, extracts and hydrates in one session, using a device that infuses nourishing serums. It has little to no downtime, so it suits people who want visibly fresher skin before an event or as regular maintenance.
Chemical Peels
Chemical peels apply an exfoliating solution that lifts away the outer layer of skin to help with sun damage, age spots, uneven tone and rough texture. Mild peeling and redness are common, and your technician will explain aftercare, including daily sunscreen.
Microneedling
Microneedling uses fine needles to create tiny controlled channels in the skin, encouraging collagen production. It is commonly used for texture, acne scars and enlarged pores. Mild redness for a day or two is typical.
Anti-Aging Facial
Our anti-aging facial is designed to support collagen and elastin for a smoother, fresher-looking complexion and to soften the look of fine lines.
Pigmentation and Melasma Care
Hyperpigmentation, including melasma, needs a careful approach, because heat and sun exposure can make it worse. A good clinic assesses your skin first, then combines gentle treatments with a home-care routine. Melasma is a long-term condition that can return, so daily sunscreen is part of any plan.
Brows and Lips: Microblading and Lip Blush
Microblading creates fine, hair-like strokes to fill sparse brows. Lip blush adds a soft, natural tint to the lips. Both are semi-permanent, and a touch-up session is usually recommended to perfect the result.
Injectables and Wellness
Some clinics also offer Botox and dermal fillers, which should only be performed by qualified, licensed professionals, and acupuncture as a complementary wellness treatment.
