Have Clear, Bright Skin with the 5 Best IPLs in Calgary

Service quality: I selected clinics that deliver satisfactory results based on clients’ testimonials. I also spoke to some of their previous clients and had treatments myself.

Customer service: I opted for those who have friendly, knowledgeable, and welcoming staff. They addressed every question I had and made me feel comfortable throughout my stay at their clinics.

Value for money: I looked for medical spas that offer affordable yet effective IPL treatments. I determined this through their clients.

Reputation: All clinics on this list have a reputable status among their previous clients, with some stating how availing of their treatments brought back their confidence.

For years, I thought glowing skin was only for celebrities. No matter how many serums or scrubs I tried, my skin seemed permanently dull and uneven.

That all changed the day a friend mentioned IPL over brunch — Intense Pulsed Light therapy.

I had no idea what it was, but after some serious research, I finally found treatments that made a real difference.

If you’re dreaming of clearer, brighter skin, I’m sharing the medical spas with the best IPL treatments in Calgary that are worth every penny.

How much does IPL cost in Calgary?

IPL therapy in Calgary costs around $100 to $500 per session, depending on the treatment area and provider. Packages of multiple sessions can also be availed for a lower per-session price.

I appreciate New Skin’s friendly staff during my visit. They happily entertained me and answered all my questions without hesitation and with a smile.

The great thing is that their facial services, including their IPL face treatment, have a good reputation among their clients. I’ve had a few sessions on them and immediately saw improvements in my face’s skin after every session.

They utilise Lumecca IPL treatment. My friend who introduced IPL to me told me that Lumecca is known for its effectiveness, requiring fewer sessions compared to standard IPL. 

What drove me to try their IPL treatment was their 0% financing option. True to their words, the loan has no hidden fees or catches, which I truly appreciate.

The only disadvantage they have compared to other clinics is that they don’t do IPL treatment on the foot area. I was a bit disappointed because I wanted to try a comprehensive IPL treatment.

Pros

  • Friendly staff
  • Proficient in facial services
  • Lumecca IPL treatment
  • Transparent pricing
  • 0% financing option
  • Free consultation

Cons

  • No foot area treatment

Highly recommend

“This was my second visit to the clinic and my first working with Brittany. A new location of the clinic is very convenient and really comfortable as soon as you walk in. Britney was warm when she welcomed me and did a really good job of making me feel comfortable and explaining the process Along the way. As well, what I really appreciated was her insight and sharing information about what to expect, and how the procedure would look with regard to the results that I was seeking. The entire visit was efficient, friendly, and professional, and the extension of Follow up support made me feel really confident with what I had done as well as for next steps. Highly recommend!”

The receptionist was kind and welcoming

“I went and saw Liona for a Botox consultation. As it was my first time, she walked me through the process and we had an open discussion about any concerns. Ultimately, I felt comfortable to go through with it. It was quick and relatively painless. She was also open and honest about the price as well (which is totally appreciated in economy LOL). New Skin has a very comfortable waiting area and the space is gorgeous! The receptionist was kind and welcoming. I would definitely recommend booking in with Liona if you’re interested in getting Botox!”

Revive Laser & Skin’s knowledgeable staff are really impressive. They thoroughly explained their treatment process in a way that I can easily understand.

When it comes to the treatment, they use Lumenis IPL treatment devices. This is great because Lumenis is known for manufacturing a range of reliable medical devices, not just for IPL but also for other treatments.

The comments about the treatment results I received from their clients are a huge plus point. Most of them told me that they had fantastic, natural results that other clinics they tried failed to provide.

What I love most, though, are the monthly promos they have. I visited when there was a discount promo for any IPL treatment, and I noticed improvements in my wrinkled feet in just one session.

That said, they only operate four days a week. They don’t operate on weekends, which limits working people’s chances of visiting them.

Pros

  • Knowledgeable staff
  • Well-praised results
  • Lumenis IPL treatment
  • Flexible financing options
  • Monthly promos
  • Free consultation

Cons

  • Operates only four days a week

Absolutely amazing experience

“Absolutely Amazing Experience! I recently visited Revive for laser treatments, and I couldn’t be happier with the results! From the moment I walked in, the staff was warm, professional, and incredibly knowledgeable. They took the time to explain the process in detail, ensuring I felt comfortable every step of the way. The clinic itself is spotless, modern, and equipped with state of the art technology. My treatment was virtually painless, and I noticed results almost immediately. The team truly cares about their clients and goes above and beyond to deliver outstanding results. I highly recommend and will definitely be returning!” 

– Hanna Sigfusson, Google Review 

I can’t wait for my second session

“I had an amazing experience at this clinic! I went in for laser hair reduction on my underarms, arms, and legs, and I could already see a noticeable reduction in hair after just one session. The best part about this clinic is the staff — they make you feel comfortable from the moment you walk in. Since I have sensitive skin, they carefully adjusted the heat level to suit my needs and checked in regularly to ensure I was comfortable throughout the session. What I truly appreciated was their attention to detail; they took their time, didn’t rush the process, and made sure not to miss a single spot — even though my appointment was right before closing time. I can’t wait for my second session! Highly recommend this place.”

I was very impressed by the YYC Botox staff’s expertise. I can say that they have a strong grasp of the relevant information, concepts, and best practices within their area of work just by talking to them.

I really love the free consultation options they offer. You can have a 1:1 talk with one of their staff either online or in person. This is nice as you can opt for the one that fits your schedule. 

For treatment, they do Cynosure IPL treatment. It’s a non-invasive way to address various skin concerns, such as sun damage, age spots, and more. Most of the clients I spoke to reported that their skin tone improved after a few sessions.

It’s also impressive how significantly brighter the clients’ skin is after just four sessions. This is a relatively faster result, as a standard IPL for the face typically needs at least six sessions.

However, due to their small team, there are times when it’s difficult to book an appointment with them.

Pros

  • Knowledgeable staff
  • Cynosure IPL treatment
  • Treatment package
  • Flexible financing options
  • Free online or in-person consultation
  • Relatively fast results

Cons

  • Availability issues

Exactly what I needed

“I had my first HydraFacial at YYC Botox and saw Isabelle—honestly, it was exactly what I needed. She was calm, professional, and made the whole experience super relaxing without feeling too clinical or too “spa.” It was a good balance. The treatment itself felt amazing. My skin looked noticeably cleaner and brighter right after, and Isabelle explained everything she was doing without overloading me. It didn’t feel rushed, and I appreciated how she tailored the products to my skin type instead of just going through the motions. The space was clean, easy to get to, and had a chill vibe that made me feel comfortable right away. If you’re on the fence about trying a facial, this was a great intro. I’ll definitely be going back.” 

– Rosa Ca, Google Review 

The only treatment place I will ever go to

“This is the only botox/filler/skin treatment place I will ever go to. My go-to specialist is Doctor Xu, and she has been amazing for the past 3 years. I have 0 complaints about her work, and she is also incredibly reasonable and empathetic. I would also comment more recently that the nurse/injector Alexis is also a dream and super supportive. She trained with Dr. Xu and  helped me stay calm during some of my more painful/anxiety inducing injections. Thanks again to the YYC botox team.”

I love the welcoming staff of Natology. I’ve felt their genuine desire to help me solve my skin problems. They showed deep interest in what I was sharing with them during my visit, making me feel comfortable sharing.

I also love the relaxing atmosphere of their clinic. It’s warm, clean, and beautiful, making me very comfortable from the moment I walked in.

The best part is that they offer powerful Lumecca IPL treatment as a package. This inspired me to try their treatment, and I wasn’t disappointed. I noticed massive improvements in my skin’s texture in just three sessions.

Last but not least, their over 40 years of combined experience is reassuring. I experienced how they collaborated and merged their knowledge during my treatment process, which left me amazed.

However, if you plan to avail yourself of their services, ensure you have enough cash, as they don’t provide financing options.

Pros

  • 47 years of combined experience
  • Relaxing clinic atmosphere
  • Welcoming staff
  • Proficient in facial services
  • Lumecca IPL treatment
  • Treatment package
  • Free consultation

Cons

  • No financing options

The whole team is professional

“I’ve been going to Natology for years and have always had a great experience. The whole team is professional, welcoming, and genuinely kind. I’ve had the pleasure of working with several of the staff over the years, but I regularly see Natasha who is absolutely fantastic. Her knowledge, care, and attention to detail always make me feel like I’m in the best hands. I had microneedling done just two days ago, and I already adore the results I’m starting to see. Natasha explained everything clearly and made the whole experience so comfortable. Thank you, Natasha and team!” 

– Jenn Shapka, Google Review 

I know I’m in the best hands

“I recently had a Level 3 facial with Alicia, and it was an amazing experience. I’ve been searching for someone really good, and I’m so happy to say I finally found my go-to skincare spot! Alicia was incredibly knowledgeable, professional, and made me feel completely at ease. She took the time to assess my skin and customized the treatment to target my specific concerns. The facial left my skin feeling refreshed, glowing, and deeply nourished. I truly appreciated her gentle touch and the way she explained each step. I can’t wait to start my microneedling and chemical peel journey with her—I know I’m in the best hands!”

I appreciate YYC Laser & Skincare’s transparency regarding their service prices. I saw the full price and no hidden costs of their IPL treatments on their website. This is great because I discovered right away if I can afford their treatments or not.

Due to their transparent pricing, I was able to compare them to the first clinics I visited. I noticed that they’re relatively inexpensive. You can have an IPL treatment on them for as little as $100.

What’s great is that they use innovative equipment for their IPL treatments. They utilise advanced InMode devices, including Lumecca, Optimas, and InModePRO, all designed for diverse skin treatments.

The highlight of their service is the personalised treatment plan. This ensures you will receive treatments tailored to your skin problems.

However, they only operate from Monday to Thursday, which is a hassle for busy people like me. This means you might need to file a leave from your work just to visit them.

Pros

  • Relaxing clinic atmosphere
  • Relatively inexpensive
  • Transparent pricing
  • Innovative IPL treatment equipment
  • Personalised treatment plan

Cons

  • No financing options
  • Operates only four days a week

Excellent customer service

“If you’re looking to see a remarkable result of hair loss after first session you definitely need to book an appointment with YYC Laser&Skincare.✨ Convenient location, beautiful open space, the best Inmode laser on the market in combination with excellent customer service makes this place one of my favourite beauty places in the world🌎💖 Today was my 5th session and I’m so excited with my smooth and hairless body🔥. Also I want to highlight that Kateryna is highly qualified specialist with strong personal skills who makes you so comfy and relaxed even while treating some ‘uncomfortable’ spots🤭. Many thanks, Kateryna, you’re awesome ❤️” 

– Anastasia R, Google Review 

Extremely knowledgeable and skilled

“I highly recommend Kate, who is an extremely knowledgeable and skilled cosmetologist. I had a fantastic experience with her. She assessed my skin carefully and provided a personalized treatment that left my skin glowing and rejuvenated. She used high-quality products and techniques. Her expertise in laser technology and facial rejuvenation is truly remarkable. She has a deep understanding of laser technology and its applications for various skin concerns. So, YYC Laser & Skincare is for anyone in search of a top-notch face cosmetologist.”
