ClearLift is a non-ablative laser treatment delivered on the Alma Harmony XL Pro platform. Instead of removing the outer layer of skin, it delivers controlled laser energy under the surface, where it can help trigger your skin's natural collagen response. Because the top layer stays intact, there is no open wound, no peeling, and no downtime, which is why many clients call it the lunchtime laser facial. Over a series of sessions, many clients notice brighter, firmer, smoother-looking skin, with fine lines appearing softened. Results vary from person to person.
At JuvyDerm Skin Care and Laser Centre in NE Calgary, every ClearLift treatment is performed by our medical aesthetics team led by Juvy Terbio, an aesthetic specialist with more than 15 years of experience, with medical oversight from Dr. Vanessa Terbio-Fernandez, a board-certified dermatologist. We are Alma Lasers certified and AASP certified, and we have cared for more than 5,000 clients. Calgary's dry, sunny, high-altitude climate can be hard on skin, and ClearLift is a gentle way to support it year-round. It also pairs well with other treatments on our menu, and your plan can combine them when appropriate.
Why choose JuvyDerm
No downtime
ClearLift is non-ablative, so the surface of your skin stays intact. Most clients return to work or errands immediately, with at most mild, short-lived redness.
Collagen stimulation under the surface
Laser energy is delivered beneath the skin, where it can help stimulate collagen and elastin over time for a firmer, more supported look. Results vary.
Brightening and gentle firming
Many clients report a brighter, more even-toned complexion and subtle tightening as the skin responds over a series of sessions.
Comfortable and quick
Sessions are typically fast and well tolerated without numbing for most people, making ClearLift easy to fit into a busy Calgary schedule.
What to expect
Free consultation: We start with a complimentary consultation, including a look at your skin and goals, so your clinician can confirm ClearLift is a good fit and map out a plan.
Your treatment: Your skin is cleansed and the handpiece is passed over the treatment area. Most clients describe a light snapping sensation. Sessions often take 20 to 30 minutes.
A series for best results: Because collagen builds gradually, ClearLift is usually done as a series, commonly 3 to 6 sessions spaced a few weeks apart, then occasional maintenance.
Simple aftercare: There is no downtime, but daily SPF matters, especially in Calgary's sunny, high-altitude climate. We will send you home with easy aftercare guidance.

What it helps with
Frequently asked questions
How much does ClearLift cost in Calgary?
Pricing varies with the treatment area and how many sessions your plan includes, so we do not quote a flat number. Your consultation at JuvyDerm is free, and you will leave with clear pricing for your specific plan. Financing is available through Medicard and Sezzle. Call (403) 460-2100 to book.
Is ClearLift safe for darker skin tones?
ClearLift is considered one of the more skin-tone-friendly laser options because it works beneath the surface rather than heating the outer layer, and it is generally suitable for most skin tones. Your clinician will assess your skin at your free consultation and confirm the safest settings for you.
Does ClearLift hurt?
Most clients find it very tolerable and compare it to light snapping or warmth. Numbing is usually not needed, and any redness typically settles quickly. Comfort varies from person to person, and we adjust as we go.
How many sessions will I need?
Many clients see the best results from a series of 3 to 6 sessions spaced a few weeks apart, followed by maintenance a few times a year. Your clinician will recommend a cadence based on your skin and goals, and results vary.
When will I see results?
Some clients notice a fresh, brighter look soon after treatment, while collagen-related firming tends to build gradually over weeks to months as the series progresses. Results vary between individuals.
