Glow Laser Facial

The Glow Laser Facial is a gentle, non-ablative skin rejuvenation treatment. It uses a 1064 nm Nd:YAG laser, a wavelength known for safely penetrating deeper layers of the skin without damaging the surface.

This wavelength is absorbed lightly by water and hemoglobin, creating controlled thermal energy in the dermis. This heat stimulates collagen production, increases circulation, encourages gentle skin tightening, and improves overall tone and texture.

This laser treatment does not break the skin or cause ablation. So, there is no downtime, and results appear quickly with continued improvement over time.

A Little Science

Because this is a gentle, collagen-stimulating treatment, it’s most often done as a single session to give the skin a quick lift and refreshed glow.

  • Results continue to develop over the next few days

  • Peak results typically appear 3–5 days after treatment

  • A great option before events when you want your skin looking bright, smooth, and refreshed

While most clients choose this treatment as a one-time session, we also offer packages of 3 or 6 treatments for those who want ongoing skin maintenance or more cumulative collagen support over time.

Who Is the Glow Laser Facial For?

  • If you have dull, uneven, or tired-looking skin

  • Anyone wanting a gentle skin refresh with little to no downtime and minimal recovery

  • You’re concerned about uneven skin tone, mild pigmentation, or texture concerns

  • Clients in their mid to late 20s and beyond, with any skin tone

  • Anyone looking for a quick glow-up before an upcoming event, like a wedding, photoshoot, or special occasion

Who Is the Glow Laser Facial Not For?

  • You’re looking for aggressive correction of deep wrinkles or significant laxity

  • You have active infections, open lesions, or certain skin conditions

  • You’re unable to follow pre- and post-treatment care, including sun avoidance

  • You’re seeking immediate, dramatic results from a single treatment

  • Your skin concerns require a more targeted or corrective laser treatment

Immediately after treatment:

  • Skin appears brighter

  • A mild tightening or “lifted” look

  • Slight warmth or pinkness that fades within hours

Over the next 4–12 weeks:

  • Smoother texture

  • Improved firmness

  • More even tone

  • A soft, healthy glow

This treatment gives subtle, natural-looking improvement. Regular sessions give the best outcome.

Things to Note:

  • This is a non-ablative treatment, meaning it offers minimal to no downtime. Clients can typically resume normal activities immediately, with only mild, temporary redness that subsides in a few hours.

  • Most clients report minimal discomfort, often describing the sensation as a warm or tingling on the skin.

  • Clients often notice an immediate "glow," with skin looking brighter, smoother, and more refreshed right after the session. You will see peak ‘glow’ 3-5 days after treatment. Long term results come with a series of treatment and don’t wear off, we just continue to age.

  • This treatment is typically performed as a single session and is designed to give your skin an immediate lift and glow. Results continue to improve over the next few days, with peak results usually seen 3–5 days after treatment.

    While we do offer packages of 3 or 6 sessions for clients who want ongoing skin maintenance, most people choose this treatment as a single session when they want a refreshed, radiant look.

  • Unlike deeper, ablative lasers that require weeks of recovery, glow laser facials use gentle energy to exfoliate, stimulate collagen, and reduce pore size without damaging the surface layer of the skin. Laser firming targets deeper into the dermis, while the glow facial targets the superficial layers of the dermis.
