DPC Laser Vascular & Hyperpigmentation Treatment in Toronto, ON

Give Yourself Clear, Even, and Glowing Skin Tone

Visible redness, stubborn brown spots, or uneven tone can feel frustrating, especially when over-the-counter products haven’t delivered the results you hoped for. Maybe you’ve dealt with broken capillaries for years, rosacea that flares unpredictably, or sun damage that won’t fade. These concerns are personal, and they’re more complex than they appear on the surface.


At Vertex Aesthetics, we know that no two pigmentation or vascular concerns are the same. Tiny spider veins require a different approach than melasma. Even similar-looking age spots might need completely different protocols based on your skin type, pigment depth, and underlying triggers. That’s exactly why we never recommend treatment before truly understanding what’s happening beneath your skin. We aim to give you a clearer, more even tone and the confidence that comes from truly understanding your own skin.


Our DPC (Dynamic Pulse Control) technology targets vascular and pigmented lesions with precision, addressing unwanted blood vessels and excess melanin without invasive procedures or extended downtime. But what sets us apart isn’t just the technology, it’s our methodology. Through our proprietary assessment process, we identify the root cause and create a customized protocol for your skin’s needs.

Why Finding the Root Cause of Vascular and Pigmented Lesions Matters?

Treating visible redness and pigmentation effectively means understanding what’s driving it in the first place. Surface-level solutions might provide temporary improvement, but lasting results come from identifying and addressing the underlying triggers.


Here are some common factors that can contribute to vascular and pigmented concerns:

Years of unprotected sun exposure damage blood vessel walls and trigger excess melanin production.
Your family history and skin type influence whether you’re prone to rosacea, melasma, or post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation.
Pregnancy, menopause, birth control, and hormone therapy can trigger melasma and worsen existing pigmentation.
Rosacea, acne, eczema, and other conditions damage blood vessels and stimulate melanin production.
As skin matures, blood vessels become more visible, and pigmentation grows more irregular.
Pollution, extreme temperatures, and harsh weather can damage your skin barrier and trigger inflammation.
Alcohol, spicy foods, stress, and heat exposure can dilate blood vessels and exacerbate redness and discoloration.
Treatment Options for Vascular and Pigmented Lesions
Your skin program is always based on your skin’s unique patterns and needs. We don’t recommend specific modalities or session counts until we understand the type, depth, and behavior of your vascular or pigmented concerns.
DPC Laser Vascular & Hyperpigmentation Treatment
Our Dynamic Pulse Control technology uses targeted wavelengths that are absorbed by hemoglobin in blood vessels and melanin in pigmented lesions. The absorbed light energy coagulates unwanted vessels and breaks down pigment into particles that your body naturally eliminates. Vessels are reabsorbed, while pigment either fades beneath the surface or forms temporary scabs that exfoliate within 1-2 weeks.
Customized Treatment Protocols
After assessing your skin, we design a protocol specific to your lesion type, depth, and concerns. Dealing with redness and broken capillaries? We will optimize your treatment for vascular targeting. Struggling with pigmentation? We’ll focus on melanin absorption. Have both? We can address them in one session. Your skin program is built around you, not a template.
Combination Approach
Sometimes, pairing the DPC laser with complementary treatments, such as medical-grade skincare or targeted therapies, can yield even better results. We’ll let you know if this makes sense for your goals and explain exactly why.

FAQs

Both use pulsed light technology but target different structures in your skin. For vascular lesions, the light is absorbed by hemoglobin in blood vessels, causing them to coagulate so your body can reabsorb them. For pigmented lesions, the light targets melanin, breaking it into particles that naturally exfoliate or fade. Some patients need to focus on one concern, while others benefit from addressing both simultaneously.

Most people with vascular or pigmented concerns can benefit from DPC laser, but a professional assessment is the best way to confirm. During your consultation, we’ll evaluate your lesion type, skin health, medical history, and goals. We’ll also discuss any factors that might affect treatment, such as recent sun exposure, medications, or active skin conditions.

We hear this often. The difference is accurate diagnosis and customized parameters. Previous treatments may have failed because the technology wasn’t suited to your lesion type, the settings weren’t optimized for your skin, or underlying triggers weren’t addressed. Our assessment-first approach ensures we’re targeting the right concern with the right protocol for your unique situation.
Most patients describe a brief, slight tingling sensation lasting 1-2 seconds when the light pulses contact the skin. It’s momentary and generally very tolerable. The treatment is quick, and most people find it easily manageable without numbing.

We’re looking forward to a consultation experience that prioritizes your needs without any pressure.

We’re here to listen, assess, and partner with you every step of the way.
