Photofacial in Surrey, B.C.

Refine tone, correct sun damage, and support long-term skin health with advanced light-based technology. At Blueprint MD Aesthetics + Wellness, the physician-directed aesthetic division founded by the surgeons of PSG, we offer Sciton BBL® (BroadBand Light) and Moxi® laser treatments — clinically proven technologies for improving pigmentation, redness, and early signs of aging. These treatments deliver measurable skin improvement with minimal downtime and can be incorporated into both preventative skincare plans and surgical preparation protocols.

What Is a Photofacial?

A photofacial is a non-invasive treatment that uses precise pulses of light energy to target pigment irregularities, redness, and visible signs of aging in the skin. The light gently heats the upper layers of skin, stimulating collagen production and promoting natural cell renewal. At Blueprint Aesthetics, we use Sciton’s BBL® and Moxi® systems: two state-of-the-art technologies that deliver unmatched results for skin clarity, tone, and texture:

Sciton BBL® (BroadBand Light): A powerful IPL (intense pulsed light) technology that treats brown spots, redness, and vascular lesions for a clearer, more even complexion.
Moxi® Laser: A gentle, non-ablative fractional laser that resurfaces the skin to improve texture, fine lines, and tone — perfect for early aging and ongoing maintenance.

These technologies represent some of the most advanced light-based platforms available for non-invasive skin rejuvenation.

Photofacial Treatments and Surgical Integration

Light-based treatments such as BBL and Moxi are frequently incorporated into comprehensive facial rejuvenation plans.

Pre-Surgical Skin Preparation

In the months leading up to facial surgery, BBL or Moxi may be recommended to:

Improve skin tone and clarity
Reduce background redness or pigmentation
Enhance collagen activity
Optimize overall skin quality prior to surgery

Well-conditioned skin often heals more predictably and enhances the final aesthetic result.

Post-Surgical Refinement

After procedures such as facelift, eyelid surgery, or neck lift, light-based treatments may be introduced once healing allows to:

Address residual sun damage not corrected by surgery
Improve skin texture and fine lines
Support long-term collagen remodeling
Maintain results over time

By integrating laser treatments with surgical planning, we are able to address both structural aging and surface-level skin quality for more complete rejuvenation.

Benefits of BBL & Moxi

BBL and Moxi are customizable treatments that address a wide range of concerns on the face, neck, chest, and hands. Patients choose them to:

Reduce sun damage and pigmentation
Improve redness and vascular irregularities
Refine fine lines and skin texture
Minimize enlarged pores
Stimulate collagen production
Support long-term skin maintenance

These treatments not only correct visible damage but also contribute to healthier, more resilient skin when performed consistently.

Sciton BBL®: The Power of BroadBand Light

Sciton’s BBL technology delivers broad-spectrum light energy into the skin, targeting pigment and vascular irregularities with precision. As the light is absorbed, it gently breaks up discoloration and stimulates collagen regeneration beneath the surface.

BBL is ideal for treating:

Brown spots, sun damage, and freckles
Redness, rosacea, and broken capillaries
Uneven tone and dullness
Skin laxity through long-term collagen remodeling (BBL HERO™ or Forever Young BBL® protocols)

After treatment, patients notice a clearer, brighter complexion with visible improvement in just one to three sessions.

Moxi®: Gentle Laser Resurfacing for All Skin Types

Moxi is Sciton’s most versatile fractional laser, safe for all skin tones and ideal for year-round maintenance. It rejuvenates the skin by creating microscopic zones of controlled thermal injury, prompting new collagen formation and cell turnover while leaving the surrounding tissue intact for quick recovery.

Moxi is perfect for patients who:

Are new to laser treatments
Want to correct early signs of aging or pigmentation
Need a gentle, low-downtime skin refresh
Want a consistent, luminous glow year-round

This “lunchtime laser” can be completed in under 30 minutes, with visible results appearing within a week and improving over time.

The BBL + Moxi Combination

For comprehensive rejuvenation, BBL and Moxi can be performed together in a single session: a signature treatment often called “Sciton’s Power of Two.”

This powerful duo corrects surface pigmentation and vascular issues (with BBL) while simultaneously remodeling skin texture and collagen (with Moxi). The result is brighter, firmer, and more evenly toned skin with minimal recovery.

Treatment Details and Recovery

Your photofacial begins with a detailed consultation to determine the right technology and settings for your skin. A topical numbing cream may be applied for comfort. During treatment, you’ll feel mild warmth or light snapping sensations as the energy targets your skin’s deeper layers. Most sessions last 30–60 minutes, depending on the area treated. After your session:

Mild redness or warmth may occur for a few hours.
With BBL, treated pigment may temporarily darken before flaking off naturally.
With Moxi, you may see mild roughness or “sandpaper” texture as the skin renews.

Downtime is typically minimal; patients often return to work or social activities the next day.

Results

Results can be seen within days to weeks, depending on your treatment type:

BBL: Noticeable brightening and tone correction after 1–2 sessions.
Moxi: Smoother texture and glowing skin within 7–10 days.

For long-term skin rejuvenation, a series of 3–4 treatments, spaced 4–6 weeks apart, is recommended. Many patients choose to schedule seasonal or quarterly maintenance treatments to preserve their results and protect against future damage.

Ideal Candidates

You may be a great candidate for a Photofacial if you:

Have sun damage, freckles, or redness
Want to improve skin tone and texture without downtime
Are looking for prejuvenation — preventing early signs of aging
Prefer a non-invasive, light-based treatment option
Want safe, year-round rejuvenation suitable for your skin type

During your consultation, our medical aestheticians will assess your skin and recommend a customized BBL, Moxi, or combination plan for optimal results.
