Elite iQ™ 5D
At Deluxe Med Spa and Wellness, we specialize in multi-dimensional skin rejuvenation that targets the foundational layers of the face. The Cynosure Elite iQ™ 5D is a medical-grade laser protocol that goes beyond surface-level care. By using dual wavelengths and advanced energy delivery, the 5D lifting technique addresses five key layers of the skin: the epidermis, superficial dermis, deep dermis, connective tissue, and the vascular system. As a leading provider in Southern California, we offer our clients a non-invasive laser lift that restores structural firmness and skin clarity in a single session.

What Is Elite iQ™ 5D?
The Elite iQ™ 5D is an advanced laser treatment that utilizes the dual-wavelength power of the Alexandrite and Nd:YAG lasers. While most lasers focus on a single concern, this specialized technique treats the skin across five distinct dimensions: lifting, tightening, contouring, brightening, and smoothing. By alternating between these two powerful wavelengths, the Elite iQ™ can penetrate deep enough to trigger structural remodeling while remaining gentle enough to refresh the surface, providing facial rejuvenation without surgery.
Who Is a Candidate for Elite iQ™ 5D?
Elite iQ™ 5D is a versatile solution for clients who want to address multiple signs of maturation simultaneously. Because the system includes the Skintel® Melanin Reader™, we can safely calibrate the laser for a wide range of skin tones. Ideal candidates typically look to improve:
At Deluxe Med Spa and Wellness, we use the Elite iQ™ system to provide a customized experience. Whether you are looking for a preventative skin treatment or a corrective lift, our clinical assessment ensures the laser energy is tuned to your specific tissue density, pigment levels, and concerns.
Every journey begins with a thorough assessment at one of our Southern California locations, so you receive a personalized prescription for your skin.
Elite iQ™ 5D is most effective for those experiencing:
Mild to moderate skin laxity along the cheeks and jawline
Loss of facial volume or drooping features
Uneven skin tone, redness, or visible sun spots
Fine lines and structural wrinkles
Overall skin dullness and enlarged pores
The Elite iQ™ 5D Treatment
The 5D protocol is a step-by-step procedure that treats the skin at varying depths to achieve a holistic result.
The Procedure
During the session, our clinician will guide the Elite iQ™ handpiece over the treatment area in several passes. You may feel a sensation of deep warmth or a light snapping feeling as the laser targets different layers of tissue. Unlike older laser systems, the Elite iQ™ 5D is designed for efficiency; a full facial lift can typically be completed in 30 to 45 minutes.
Skintel® Technology
Safety is our priority. Before we begin, we utilize the Skintel® Melanin Reader™, the industry’s first FDA-cleared melanin reader. This device measures your skin’s specific pigment levels and syncs with the laser to select the safest and most effective energy settings for your unique profile.
Integrated Cooling
To ensure your comfort, the system works in tandem with a high-performance cooling device that directs a constant stream of chilled air onto the skin. This protects the surface while allowing the laser energy to work effectively in the deeper, foundational layers.
One platform. Engineered for results.
Dual-Wavelength Precision
By combining the 755nm Alexandrite laser (for pigment and surface clarity) with the 1064nm Nd:YAG laser (for deep tissue tightening and vascular health), we can treat the skin’s entire architecture in one visit.
Thermal Coagulation
The 5D protocol focuses on creating controlled thermal zones in the deep dermis. This heat causes immediate contraction of collagen and signals the body to begin a massive production of new, healthy fibers.
Skintel® Melanin Reader™: This diagnostic tool removes the guesswork from laser treatments. By providing data-driven settings, we can treat a more diverse range of clients with higher confidence and better safety margins than traditional lasers with fixed settings.

Device Showcase
The Elite iQ™ platform stands out in the aesthetic industry due to its high-power output and technical versatility.
Elite iQ™ 5D Recovery and Results
The Elite iQ™ 5D works primarily beneath the surface, leaving the epidermis intact.
Immediately After Treatment
Your skin will likely appear flushed and feel warm, a sensation similar to a mild sunburn. This localized redness typically resolves within 1 to 3 hours. Because this is a non-ablative process, you can apply makeup and return to your daily activities immediately following your session. We recommend applying a physical sunblock of SPF 30 or higher to protect the newly stimulated tissue.
The Progression of Results
While the 5D lift begins in the treatment room, the most significant changes occur through a process of biological remodeling:
The First 48 Hours
You may notice an initial glow and subtle tightening. This is caused by the immediate thermal contraction of existing collagen fibers.
Weeks 3-6
As the Nd:YAG energy triggers deep cellular repair, your body begins to synthesize a denser collagen matrix. You will notice a gradual improvement in skin texture and a reduction in surface redness.
Months 3-6
This is when the lifting effect peaks. The structural support of the mid-face is reinforced, leading to a visible sharpening of the jawline and a more contoured facial border.
Optimal Outcomes
To achieve the full cumulative effect of the five-dimensional lift, we recommend a series of 3 to 5 treatments spaced 4 weeks apart. This allows each layer of tissue to build upon the previous session’s collagen production. To maintain these structural results and combat the natural maturation process, many clients opt for a single maintenance session every 6 months.
