Men's concerns in Laval

With the one that bothers you most, and let the consultation handle the order. Most men arrive with two or three things that overlap, and it is common for a single treatment to touch several: a protocol that works skin texture often acts on the pores and on the marks left by spots as well. Order matters too, because some things treat better once something else has been settled. Active inflammation has to calm down before the marks it left can be worked on, and launching everything at once saves nobody any time.

No. It exists to build a plan and analyse the skin, and it is not required. If you already know what you want, book directly, the calendar is online. It is aimed at someone who does not know yet, or who has tried several things without a result that held. It is free either way, and leaving without booking anything is a normal outcome.

It depends entirely on what is being treated, and the distinction is simple. Treatments that work the surface of the skin give a result you see the same day, and it is maintained. Those that work the structure below the surface take weeks and are done in series, because the body needs that long to build collagen and nothing speeds it up. Each concern page states which is which for the treatments it names.

Yes, and you will read them here rather than discover them halfway through a series. A pitted scar fifteen years old, hair loss with an untreated hormonal cause, redness that belongs to a medical diagnosis: those are situations where an esthetic treatment will not change much. Every page carries a section separating what responds from what does not, and it is the section we suggest you read first.

Most do, and a few need a setting rather than a refusal. Laser and some peels are set according to skin type, and that is precisely what the assessment checks before starting. The institute's laser, the Elite iQ by Cynosure, carries two wavelengths and treats every complexion after assessment. Nobody is ruled out in advance over skin colour.

No, and it is a worry men often raise on the phone. Some treatments genuinely work by accumulation, and when that is the case we say so, because keeping quiet about it would be selling you a disappointment. But nothing is sold at a first appointment, and plenty of situations are settled by one session or by two pieces of free advice. When the answer is "your skin is fine, come back in six months", that is what you will hear.
