At our Edina clinic, Dye‑VL IPL and ClearLift offer a customized approach to treating pigmentation. Dye‑VL targets visible sun damage, brown spots, and redness, while ClearLift uses nanosecond laser energy to address deeper or more complex pigment, including melasma, with minimal heat and downtime.
Clients from Minneapolis and across the Twin Cities choose these treatments for clearer, brighter, and more even-looking skin. Depending on your concerns, we may recommend Dye‑VL, ClearLift, or a combination of both.
Not all pigment is the same. During your complimentary consultation, we’ll evaluate your skin, discuss your goals, and determine whether Dye‑VL IPL, ClearLift, or a combination treatment is the best fit.
Target visible sun damage, brown spots, redness, and uneven tone with advanced IPL technology. Dye‑VL delivers precise light energy to reveal a clearer, brighter, and more even-looking complexion.
ClearLift uses gentle nanosecond laser energy to break apart unwanted pigment with minimal heat and little to no downtime. It’s a thoughtful option for melasma, complex pigmentation, and overall skin clarity.
Two technologies, one customized treatment. Dye‑VL targets visible discoloration and redness at the surface, while ClearLift addresses deeper or more complex pigment—creating a more comprehensive approach to brighter, more even-looking skin.
Laser treatments at Be Your Kind begin with understanding your skin. Your provider will evaluate your skin type, pigmentation, redness, and treatment history before recommending Dye‑VL IPL, ClearLift, or a combination of both. Each treatment is intentionally selected as part of a personalized plan to create clearer, brighter, and more even-looking skin over time.
Dye‑VL IPL uses targeted light energy to address visible sun damage, age spots, freckles, and uneven pigmentation. As treated pigment rises to the surface and naturally clears, the skin appears brighter and more even.
Dye‑VL IPL targets the appearance of diffuse redness, rosacea, broken capillaries, and visible vessels. Treatments are customized to help create a calmer, more balanced complexion without resurfacing the skin.
ClearLift uses short nanosecond laser pulses to break apart unwanted pigment with minimal heat buildup in the surrounding skin. This makes it a thoughtful option for deeper or more complex pigmentation concerns, including melasma.
In addition to targeting pigment, ClearLift delivers energy beneath the skin’s surface to support natural collagen production. Over time, skin can appear smoother, firmer, and more refined.
Dye‑VL IPL and ClearLift are noninvasive treatments designed to deliver visible results with minimal interruption to your routine. ClearLift typically involves little to no downtime, while Dye‑VL may cause temporary redness or darkening of treated pigment as it clears.
Not all discoloration responds to the same technology. Your provider will evaluate your skin type and concerns before recommending Dye‑VL IPL, ClearLift, or a combination of both for a more comprehensive approach to pigment, redness, and overall skin clarity.
Avoid tanning, excessive sun exposure, and self-tanner before your Dye‑VL IPL or ClearLift treatment. Use broad-spectrum SPF daily and pause retinoids, exfoliating acids, and other potentially irritating products as directed. Tell your provider about any medications, recent procedures, active skin irritation, or history of cold sores before treatment.
Your provider will cleanse and assess your skin before selecting settings based on your skin type and concerns. Protective eyewear will be provided throughout the treatment. You may feel mild warmth, light snapping, or tingling as the energy is delivered, but most clients find the treatment comfortable and well tolerated.
Keep your skincare gentle and use broad-spectrum SPF consistently after treatment. Temporary redness, mild swelling, or darkening of treated pigment may occur, particularly after Dye‑VL IPL. Avoid picking or exfoliating the area, and limit heat, strenuous exercise, and direct sun exposure as instructed while your skin recovers.

EXPERIENCE THE DIFFERENCE
Be Your Kind offers professional chemical peels from our clinic at 3918 Sunnyside Rd in Edina’s 44th & France neighborhood. We see clients from across Edina, Minneapolis, St. Louis Park, Richfield, Bloomington, Eden Prairie, Minnetonka and the wider Twin Cities.
Chemical peels can be used to refresh dull or uneven skin, improve texture and target concerns such as fine lines, pigmentation, sun damage and acne. Because different skin concerns call for different approaches, we’ll assess your skin and recommend a peel based on what you want to improve, your skin type and the level of treatment that makes sense for you.
Appointments are available throughout the week from 9am, with extended hours until 8pm on Mondays and Wednesdays. We’re also open Saturdays from 10am-4pm if a weekend appointment works better for you.
Dye‑VL IPL uses targeted light energy to address surface-level brown spots, sun damage, redness, and visible vessels. ClearLift uses short nanosecond laser pulses to target deeper or more complex pigmentation with minimal heat buildup and little to no downtime.
Dye‑VL is an advanced IPL treatment available on the Alma Harmony platform. It uses a narrow spectrum of light to target unwanted pigment and vascular concerns, including brown spots, redness, and visible vessels.
Some clients notice brighter, more even-looking skin after one treatment. Pigment and redness generally improve gradually as the skin clears treated discoloration. Results may continue to develop over several weeks and become more noticeable with a treatment series.
ClearLift typically involves little to no downtime. Dye‑VL IPL may cause temporary redness, mild swelling, or darkening of treated brown spots before they naturally fade or flake away. Your provider will review expected healing based on your customized treatment.
ClearLift may be a thoughtful option for melasma because its nanosecond laser energy targets pigment with minimal heat buildup in the surrounding skin. Because melasma is complex and can be triggered by heat, hormones, and sun exposure, every treatment plan should be customized and may include skincare and strict sun protection.
Yes. Dye‑VL and ClearLift can be combined when the skin presents with multiple concerns, such as surface-level sun damage, redness, and deeper or more complex pigmentation. Using both technologies allows for a more comprehensive and personalized treatment.
Many clients benefit from a series of three treatments, although the ideal number depends on the type and depth of pigmentation, the presence of redness, and your desired results. Maintenance treatments may be recommended to support long-term skin clarity.
Before your Dye‑VL IPL or ClearLift appointment, avoid tanning and excessive sun exposure, and use broad-spectrum sunscreen consistently. Your provider may also recommend temporarily pausing certain exfoliating acids, retinoids, or pigment-correcting products. Personalized preparation instructions will be provided based on your skin and selected treatment.
