LaseMD Ultra Now Available at Point of View Medical Aesthetics Calgary

2025.03.22

Point of View Medical Aesthetics, located in Calgary's Crescent Heights neighborhood, proudly announces the addition of LaseMD Ultra to our advanced treatment offerings. This cutting-edge non-ablative fractional laser technology creates microchannels in the skin to stimulate collagen production to address your specific concerns including fine lines, sun damage, uneven skin tone, and texture irregularities.

Unlike more aggressive laser treatments, LaseMD Ultra delivers impressive results with minimal downtime – most clients experience only mild redness similar to a sunburn and can return to normal activities within 24 hours. The treatment is safe for all skin types and can be performed year-round, even during summer months when many other laser treatments are not recommended, making it an exceptionally versatile addition to your skincare regimen.

For optimal results, we recommend a series of 3-5 treatments spaced 3-4 weeks apart, with each session customized using specific cosmeceutical serums targeting pigmentation, aging, or hydration needs. Clients typically notice immediate improvement in skin luminosity after their first treatment, with continued enhancement developing over subsequent weeks as collagen production increases, resulting in firmer, more youthful-looking skin.

We invite you to discover how LaseMD Ultra can transform your skincare routine by visiting https://povclinic.com/service/lasemd-ultra-calgary/ or contacting us directly to schedule a consultation. At Point of View Medical Aesthetics, we remain committed to providing innovative, effective aesthetic solutions delivered with exceptional care and expertise that our clients throughout Alberta have come to trust.

Unlock Radiant Skin The Science of Laser Rejuvenation Explained

2025.05.19

Laser skin resurfacing stands as a gold standard in non-surgical skin rejuvenation for good reason. When focused light energy penetrates the skin, it activates your body’s natural healing mechanisms and collagen production processes, essentially “resetting” your skin’s appearance. Unlike typical over-the-counter products, laser treatments work beneath the surface to address aging at its source—removing dull layers and encouraging fresh, youthful cells to emerge.

At Point Of View Medical Aesthetics, our advanced laser technologies are specifically calibrated to address the unique skincare challenges that come with Calgary’s dry climate and changing seasons.

PRP Microneedling The Natural Path to Skin Rejuvenation

2025.04.23

Have you ever wondered how to rejuvenate your skin using your body’s own healing mechanisms? At Point of View Medical Aesthetics in Calgary, we’ve seen remarkable transformations by using microneedling combined with PRP (platelet-rich plasma)—a treatment that harnesses your natural regenerative abilities to address tired, scarred, or aging skin.

Sometimes called the “Vampire Facial,” this innovative procedure combines two powerful approaches: creating controlled micro-injuries to stimulate collagen production and applying your own platelet-rich plasma to accelerate healing. The result? A natural glow that comes from within, without relying on synthetic products or invasive procedures. While we offer a comprehensive range of treatments including Botox for dynamic wrinkles and premium dermal fillers for volume loss, our microneedling offering with PRP stands out for clients seeking a more natural approach to skin rejuvenation.

Brotox Why More Men Are Turning to Botox

2025.03.02

In today’s world, self-care and personal grooming are no longer seen as exclusive to women. The stigma surrounding men taking care of their skin and appearance is rapidly fading, replaced by a culture that values confidence, vitality, and overall well-being. Social norms have evolved, and with high-profile figures openly embracing aesthetic treatments, more men feel comfortable exploring options like Botox. Whether it’s to stay competitive in the workplace, maintain a youthful appearance, or simply feel better in their skin, Botox—sometimes playfully called Brotox—is becoming a go-to solution for men looking to put their best face forward. At our Calgary clinic, Point of View Medical Aesthetics, we’ve seen firsthand how Botox can subtly enhance a man’s appearance while preserving a natural, refreshed look.

Why Are Men Getting Botox?

The reasons men turn to Botox vary, but the underlying theme is the desire to look as sharp and energetic as they feel. In an era where first impressions matter—whether in business, dating, or social interactions—men are recognizing the value of looking well-rested and rejuvenated. Deep-set forehead lines, frown lines, and crow’s feet can create an unintended appearance of fatigue, stress, or even irritation. Botox works by relaxing the muscles responsible for these wrinkles, allowing for a smoother, more youthful complexion without altering facial expressions. Unlike more invasive cosmetic procedures, Botox offers a quick, no-downtime solution that fits seamlessly into a busy lifestyle. The result? You still look like yourself—just a well-rested, slightly younger version with a touch of effortless confidence.

What Areas Can Botox Treat?

While every client is different, these are the most common areas men choose to target with Botox:

Forehead Lines: Smooths deep creases from years of raising eyebrows (or stress from watching playoff hockey).
Frown Lines (11s): Softens the vertical lines between the brows that can make you look angry or tired.
Crow’s Feet: Reduces fine lines around the eyes for a more alert appearance.
Jawline & Masseter: Helps with jaw slimming or TMJ pain from teeth grinding.
Sweat Reduction: Botox can also be used to minimize excessive sweating (hyperhidrosis) in the underarms, hands, or forehead.

Will I Still Look Like Myself?

A common concern among men considering Botox is whether they’ll end up looking “frozen” or overly smooth. Rest assured, at Point of View Medical Aesthetics, our approach is all about subtlety. Our goal is to soften wrinkles while maintaining your natural expressions, so you appear refreshed rather than altered. Think of it as looking like the version of you who consistently gets eight hours of sleep and hasn’t been frowning at emails all day. Botox isn’t about erasing character—it’s about enhancing your best features while reducing the signs of stress and aging that don’t reflect how you truly feel inside.

Ready To Give Botox a try?

At Point of View Medical Aesthetics, we understand that men want results that are effective yet look natural. Our expert injectors have a deep understanding of male facial anatomy and tailor each treatment to enhance your features without making you look overdone. We offer a professional, welcoming environment where you can feel comfortable discussing your goals. Whether you’re brand new to Botox or a returning client, we prioritize a personalized experience that ensures you achieve the refreshed, confident look you’re after.
