Expert Skin Care in Vancouver
Who We Are
Shine MD is recognized as one of the best skin care clinics in Vancouver, known for high-yield, inclusive, physician-led treatments for all skin types and tones. Founded by Dr. Khurana—Medical Director with a Postgraduate Diploma in Practical Dermatology—our clinic is driven by a commitment to patient-centered, evidence-based care for acne, acne scarring, pigmentation, melasma, skin of color, and anti-aging rejuvenation.
Our Approach
Your skin impacts your life story. We take the time to understand the factors that impact you on your skin journey. Every treatment plan is customized to your unique skin type, concerns, lifestyle, and long-term goals. We specialize in conditions that require deep expertise and careful handling:
- Laser & Energy-Based Technologies
Our reputation is built on delivering improvement you can see and feel, starting from your very first visit—all in a supportive, safe, and nurturing environment.
Specialized Acne & Acne Scarring Treatments

Expert Pigmentation Correction
Pigmentation concerns, including melasma, sun damage, age spots, uneven tone, and post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation require a nuanced, carefully managed approach. Aggressive or inappropriate treatments can worsen discoloration, especially in deeper skin tones.
At Shine MD, treatment plans are designed around your skin type, triggers, and long-term stability. We address:
- Sun damage & solar lentigos
- Post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIH)
- Age spots
- Uneven tone on the face and body
Leaders in Skin of Color Care
Despite growing awareness, evidence shows that people with melanin-rich skin still experience gaps in access and expertise. Shine MD is one of the only clinics in Canada dedicated to specialized skin-of-color treatment protocols.
Melanin-rich skin responds differently to lasers, heat, inflammation, and injury. Incorrect treatment can lead to hyperpigmentation, hypopigmentation, and scarring—which is why specialized care is essential.
At Shine MD, our expertise ensures:
- Appropriate device selection for deeper skin tones.
- Precision settings for optimal safety.
- Thoughtful pacing to protect the skin barrier.
- Supportive skincare and medical management when required.
This approach provides:
- Significantly reduced risk of complications.
- Meaningful, lasting results.
- A high-trust, inclusive care environment.
Shine MD is Vancouver’s only dedicated melasma clinic, offering a safe, knowledgeable space for patients to address chronic pigmentation while also exploring treatments for acne, rosacea, and skin texture. Our team understands the unique challenges, triggers, and sensitivities that melasma patients face, and tailors care accordingly.
Whether you’re treating acne, pigmentation, melasma, scarring, or texture concerns, patients with darker skin tones consistently choose Shine MD for care that is safe, effective, and rooted in clinical excellence.
