✨3 Botox Tips You Wish You Knew Sooner✨

🖤 Timing is everything: Start before deep lines set in for the best, natural-looking results.
🖤 Aftercare matters: Avoid working out for 24 hours and facial massages for 14 days to ensure optimal results.
🖤 Less is more: A conservative approach can prevent the "frozen" look and keep your expressions natural.

Say goodbye to unwanted spider veins with Sclerotherapy! 💉

The magic behind this treatment is simple. By injecting a sclerosing agent into problem veins, we cause them to collapse and fade over time, leaving your legs looking flawless. You’ll be able to confidently show off your legs with just a few treatments!

Note: Sclerotherapy isn't for varicose veins, but our experts can suggest the best alternatives for you.️

Revanesse Retreat Recap! ✨ Dr. Brooks and Chelsea had an unforgettable experience at the Revanesse Retreat held at the Edmonton Art Gallery!

We’re all about continuing education to bring YOU the very best. The retreat was a perfect blend of learning and fun, with hands-on workshops and memorable chats with industry experts, including the one and only Subbio Plastic Surgery & Medical Spa. 🙌🏻

We live for these satisfying before and after moments 😍

Our clinic offers Botox® and Dysport® to help you achieve a youthful, radiant look by reducing fine lines and wrinkles and preventing new ones. Suitable for the forehead, crow’s feet, chin, neck lines and frown lines, these treatments temporarily relax the muscles that cause creases.

Why do patients love these injectables? 💉
- Quick and minimally invasive
- Results last 3-4 months
- Little to no downtime
- Noticeable improvements in less than 2 weeks

Can you guess what Kara's got up her sleeve?

✨ It's Forma™ time! ✨

This skin rejuvenation treatment firms sagging skin without surgery or needles. Using radio frequency magic, Forma™ boosts collagen, smoothes wrinkles, and enhances skin texture—especially great for cheeks, jowls, chin & neck. Pair it with a HydraFacial for what we like to call the ultimate 'HydraTight' combo!

Hi, beauties! ✨ Don't miss out on your chance to book your appointment with Kelsey before she's bumpin' off to mat leave! Limited spots available before the end of the month.

Summer is winding down and our team is trying to soak up as much sun as possible! 🌞 Many of us are getting some well-deserved R&R with vacation time. Here's your friendly reminder to lock in that appointment by pre-booking since our availability is limited. We just want you to keep that summer glow going strong! 😘

Dermaplaning is one of the most effective ways to remove peach fuzz and dead skin cells. After each treatment, your skin will be stimulated to renew its cells. You'll not only see a glowy, smooth surface, but you'll also find that your at-home skincare products absorb more effectively! 🖤

Lip flips are great for achieving a fuller, more defined pout without adding volume. We inject a small amount of Botox® around your mouth to relax the muscles, allowing your top lip to roll gently outward and appear larger.

It's a quick procedure with minimum downtime and the results enhance your natural beauty. 🖤

Our team is beyond excited to announce that tomorrow we're kicking off our Annual Stampede Summer Sale! 🙌🏼 Here are some details you won't want to miss:

Happy shopping, beauties!

When you add a tint or wax to your brow lamination, we'll add complimentary eye gels to your service. These gels will help brighten any dark circles you may have and are honestly a great way to add a sprinkle of relaxation to your treatment. Why not give your under-eye some TLC while we work on your brows? 😘

Dog days at the diamond 🐶 Thanks Medicine Hat Mavericks for putting on the annual Bark at the Park a few weeks ago! Ripley and a couple members of our team had a paws-itively wonderful time on The Davis Dug Out Deck. 😉

Forma™ is the go-to treatment before your next event. It smooths the appearance of your skin by increasing collagen production to eliminate lines, wrinkles, and improve your skin texture. Plus, it's pain-free, non-invasive, and requires no downtime. 🙌🏻

Other treatments can leave you with redness that lasts for days to weeks, but Forma™ leaves you looking refreshed the very next day (or even later on in the same day!).

To say we're obsessed with this treatment miiiiight be an understatement 😉

We've got everything you need to know about "liquid dermaplaning" and what it does for your skin! 😍

Alkaline wash is a very unique, highly advanced DMK Skincare Canada formula that uses an alkaline solution to swell, soften, and dissolve tissue and hair. Just like dermaplaning, this treatment makes your skin the perfect canvas for makeup application. Plus, monthly treatments will typically lead to slowed hair growth with time. 🙌🏻

There are many concerns that an alkaline wash will address, including:
☑️ Acne
☑️ Milia
☑️ Rosacea
☑️ Pigmentation
☑️ Stretch marks
☑️ Folliculitis
☑️ Ingrown hair
☑️ Wrinkles

Our clients are required to be on a DMK skincare program and must receive a DMK enzyme treatment before an alkaline wash. Since every client's journey is unique we always start with a consultation. This helps us understand your specific goals and guide our decision if this is the right treatment for you. 🖤

This client received her first Sculptra treatment in October 2023 and since then we've helped her build a consistent routine that gets her closer to her aesthetic goals. 🖤

The after photo is from her most recent treatment in March. Sometimes the hardest part about investing in your skin is that you won't always see drastic changes right away. But this client proves that patience is everything and that the results you see over time are so worth it.

HydraFacials just got twice as much fun around here! Two machines mean we can do more treatments for more clients. So, if you've been waiting for a sign to treat yourself to a Hydrafacial, here are two 😉

It's time to put the spotlight on Kelsey, one of our fantastic RNs! 😍

Born and raised in Medicine Hat, Kelsey received her Bachelor of Nursing from the University of Lethbridge in 2016. In 2019, she completed extensive injectable training through the renowned Botox Course & Filler Course in Calgary with Dr. Andrew Dargie.

She takes pride in helping clients feel their very best inside and out. Whether she's providing cosmetic treatments or therapeutic Botox for migraines, bruxism, or hyperhidrosis, she makes a point of understanding client goals to provide them with the highest standard of care.

We're so lucky to have Kelsey on our team! 🖤

Last month was the annual Servus Credit Union CFL Alumni Golf Tournament in support of United Way of South Eastern Alberta. It's always great to see familiar faces come together for a bit of friendly competition. Especially when it's all for the good of our community! 🖤

Chelsea had the joy of playing with CFL Alumni Randy Spencer, a former player for the Edmonton Eskimos! 🙌🏻

We are often asked where exactly Sculptra can be injected. Since it's designed to promote collagen production to enhance facial volume, it is only appropriate for some areas of your face. During a consultation, we determine where would be best based on your aesthetic goals and then map these points directly onto your beautiful face (thanks for being our model, Chelsea 😉)

The areas we inject Sculptra are:
☑️ Temples
☑️ Cheeks
☑️ Jawline
☑️ Neck

Sculptra is not a replacement for filler but is a great complement to it. If you are looking to improve volume in areas outside of the ones listed here, it's worth booking a free consultation to see if Sculptra or filler (or both!) is best for your goals 🖤

Keep your lashes and brows in line with the InLei Fashion Lash. We love this product for adding shine while keeping everything soft to the touch.

It works with “Luminescine” ingredients, which are active ingredients obtained from the Verbascum Flower. These ingredients absorb sunbeams and transform them into a new light source that is generated directly onto the hairs. This is why it has such a great ability to increase brightness! ☀️

Doing at-home brow care after a lamination or tint will keep your brows looking fresh. And aftercare doesn’t get much easier than a few swipes with the Fashion Lash wand!

Exosomes are like a magic potion for your skin and Empower™ by ELEVAI Skincare is one of the best! It mimics your skin's natural repair process to provide regenerative skin health. Think of it like PRP without the poke!

Empower™ is a clean, concentrated, lab-formulated serum that combines exosomes with peptides, a ceramide complex, and hyaluronic acid to activate the natural healing process of your skin. Simply add this serum to your microneedling treatment to amplify the results of your treatment, reduce recovery time, and keep your skin glowing. Like magic! 😘

Happy Mother's Day to all the gorgeous mamas out there! 🖤

We're so lucky to have so many amazing women in our lives. We appreciate you today and always!

Struggling with hair loss? You're not alone and PRP Hair Restoration can help. Get 30% off a package of 3 PRP Hair Restoration treatments if you book before the end of May.

Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) Hair Restoration is a non-surgical procedure that uses your body's own growth factors to stimulate hair growth. Here's how it works:

☑️ We start by safely drawing a small amount of your blood — just like a quick, routine blood test.
☑️ Next, we place the sample into a centrifuge. It spins rapidly to separate the blood cells, leaving us with the platelet-rich plasma we're looking for.
☑️ We then gently inject this supercharged PRP into the areas of your scalp that need a boost, encouraging your hair to grow fuller and healthier.

This treatment stimulates the generation of stem cells throughout the body with studies showing it to increase hair count, improve hair thickness, and prolong the growth phase of your hair cycle. Your treatments would be spaced one month apart (one in May, June and July).

Ready to take the first step towards fuller hair? Call the clinic at 403-487-0460 to get this treatment at an amazing price 🖤

Steph and Chelsea were in Calgary recently for Alumier MD Canada product training! There are lots of new and exciting things coming up for Alumier that we can't wait to share with all of you.

Steph also learned everything about the products we carry, what they do, and how they support our clients' goals. That means she's ready to provide you with all the best recommendations next time you stop by the clinic! 😉

Consultations are an important step if you're getting started on your aesthetics journey or are thinking of trying a new treatment. Oftentimes, you'll actually need a consultation before you can move ahead with a treatment or service! Here's why we recommend consultations:

☑️ It gives you a chance to discuss your skin concerns and goals.
☑️ They help us determine the best products or treatments for you.
☑️ You get a better idea of the overall cost of treatments.
☑️ Plus, they're completely free!

One of the best parts about consultations is that our team has expertise in a wide range of treatments and services. Once we know your goals and desired outcomes, our team members will collaborate on the different treatments and products you need to see results 🖤

Microneedling has a reputation for being scary, but we do a few things to keep you comfortable:

✨ Before the treatment, we apply a numbing cream for 15-30 minutes.

✨ We always use the industry's top-quality devices and sterile one-time-use needles.

✨ We select a serum based on your skin's needs as a soothing, post-treatment add-on.

We do everything we can to make it as comfortable for you as possible, and it continues to be one of our more popular treatments.

Give a big welcome to our newest team member, Steph! She joined our team last month as our newest medical office assistant. 🖤

She has a real talent for making clients feel like VIPs, thanks to her years of experience in the healthcare industry. Beyond her professional prowess, Steph is committed to self-love and holistic wellness. This shines through in everything she does and is a wonderful reminder to prioritize inner beauty alongside outer radiance.

Steph's passion and expertise are already elevating our clinic to new heights and we're so excited to have her on the team. When she's not at our clinic, you'll find her doting on her two adorable kids. Steph will be working at the clinic full time so make sure to say hi next time you come in! 😍
