Texture
As we age, the development of irregular texture can become an unwanted reality for many of us. Our skin may become bumpy or even suffer from acne scarring and surgical scars. The best way to maintain your naturally young, radiant-looking skin is through preventative measures such as eating healthy, avoiding smoking, maintaining a medical-grade skincare routine, and moisturizing regularly. However, this is often not enough to preserve your skin from the natural aging process.
At Lucere, we understand the importance of feeling confident in your own skin. As the leading cosmetic, dermatology, and laser clinic in Edmonton, we are pleased to offer safe and effective treatments to improve the texture of your skin through a holistic approach that includes expertly injected Botox & Filler, lasers using proven technology and premium, medical-grade skincare.
