Before and After Gallery
How long does a brow sculpt last?
Clients typically come in once a month for regular upkeep.
Can I tweeze between brow services?
Tweezing between eyebrow waxes is perfectly fine. However, we recommend only tweezing the hair that grows slightly below the brow line. If the hair is too close to the brow line, leave it to the professionals! Precision is hard to achieve with tweezers. By leaving the hairs close to the brow line, over time your technician may be able to give you a thicker eyebrow, even if you can’t visualize it now.
What are the disadvantages of eyebrow sculpting?
For many people, the Brow Sculpt can make a huge difference. However, clients with thin or sparse brows may find little difference after the service. These clients may achieve a more satisfying look with brow lamination or microblading.
Brow correction through continuous brow services
Depending on the amount of recovery needed from the brow trauma, you may need anywhere from two to six brow shapes to restore your brows to your recognizable, beloved eyebrows.
While brow waxing is the best way to restore your eyebrows from an economical perspective, it is a journey that requires a time commitment. On the other hand, microblading is a brow correction method that immediately restores a pigmented-yet-realistic version of your eyebrows.

We have compiled a list of popular ingredients and their uses in professional skincare products. You can refer to this list when making your next purchase at your favourite retail store!
Glycolic Acid
Glycolic acid treats flaky or dull skin and hyperpigmentation by stimulating exfoliation. The smaller a molecule, the more easily it gets into the skin and penetrates deeply. Because glycolic acid is the smallest of all the acids, it yields the most dramatic results.
Lactic Acid
Lactic acid is derived from sour or fermented milk. It has skin softening abilities.
Salicylic Acid
Salicylic acid treats conditions that involve scaling or overgrowth of skin cells, for example, psoriasis. In addition, it treats acne by reducing swelling and redness. It unplugs blocked skin pores to allow pimples to shrink, thereby softening and loosening dry, scaly, or thickened skin so that it sloughs off.
Hyaluronic Acid
Hyaluronic acid attracts water molecules to the skin. It secures moisture and creates fullness. It is a “smart nutrient” because it can adjust its moisture absorption rate based on the humidity—relative to the season and the climate.
Kojic Acid
Kojic acid is a skin-lightening agent. It is produced by several species of fungi. Fun fact: Kojic acid is a by-product of the fermentation process used to produce the alcoholic beverage ‘sake’.
Turmeric
Turmeric has multiple uses! Not only is it used for clearing acne, but it is also used for brightening the complexion. Did you know that turmeric is also used to inhibit facial hair growth? Finally, it has anti-inflammatory and antibacterial properties to help reduce acne and scarring.
Retinol
We have coined retinol the ‘Defibrillator’. It plumps wrinkles and kick-starts the release of collagen. As a result, youthful volume is added to your face. Retinoids repair skin by kick-starting inflammation. Retinol is one of the raw forms of vitamin A.
We have compiled some of our brow shape before and after images in Edmonton. Our signature brow wax, the Brow Shape, is your go-to for brow definition or a quick fix. It includes a precise shape using your facial measurements, gentle wax application, tweeze, and trim that will leave your brows looking clean and fresh!
Generally, it takes 15-20 minutes to compete and lasts between 2-5 weeks. Check out our brow shape before and after gallery in Edmonton below:

Our spa offers medical esthetics treatments and traditional esthetics services in Edmonton, Alberta.
Advanced skin treatments
Chemical peels
Chemical peels are medical esthetics skin treatments. They accelerate the cell turnover rate by chemically penetrating beneath the surface of the skin to dissolve away dead skin cells.
They are customized depending on the current condition of the skin and desired results. As a result, they treat a variety of conditions, for example, pigmentation, acne, fine lines, dry skin, and more.
The first thing to remember when booking your peel is the recommended downtime of 2-7 days depending on the depth of the peel. Please review the criteria before booking your peel.
Photofacials
Photofacials use Intense Pulse Light (IPL) technology to diminish brown spots, redness, broken capillaries, fine lines and other textural damage.
Over time, skin accumulates damage resulting in age spots and other pigmented lesions. Our skin loses elasticity which creates fine lines. IPL treatments are ideal for treating pigmented and textural damage that come from aging.
We recommend 4-6 treatments when treating the above skin concerns.
Types of Photofacial IPL treatments
While all photofacials emit light energy into the skin, the difference between them lies in their specific targets.
ALISA blasts collagen cells to boost collagen production. It target fine lines, skin smoothing, textured scarring, and large pores. Promotes skin rejuvenation.
ACLARA dissolves blemishes by destroying excess melanin cells. Recommended for removal of dark spots, pigmented scarring, and sun damage.
ALIVIA cauterizes superficial vessels and dissolves them back into the skin while flushing out the excess. It is used to treat vascular lesions.
Vascular lesions are due to conditions such as Rosacea, couperose skin, sensitized skin, or simply genetics. Subsequently, if left untreated these conditions can worsen, or mutate the skin’s texture.
Our advanced pedicure or “pedícare” menu includes specific treatments for ingrown nails, nail fungus, and diabetic feet.
Ingrown Nails
Ingrown toenails can cause discomfort and lead to infection when left untreated. Pressure is relieved by clearing debris and carefully trimming the ingrown portion of your nail.
This process can take anywhere from one hour to an hour and a half depending on how severe it is or if the use of topical anaesthetic is necessary.
Anti-Fungal Treatment
Fungal growth on your nails can lead to discomfort, deformities, and discolouration. Infected nails are treated to help prevent transmission and further complications.
Your nail care treatment plan will require follow-up service and use of the anti-fungal solution and home care instructions provided with your service.
Diabetic Pedicure
Our Diabetic Pedicure is a specialized foot care service tailored to meet the unique needs of individuals with diabetes.
Booking this treatment begins with a telephone consultation to determine your eligibility for the treatment. Your consultation is free and can be booked online.
Advanced hair removal treatments
Our medical esthetics menu includes IPL Hair removal as a way to permanently remove or reduce facial and body hair. This treatment will deliver permanent results on any area of face and body, including male facial hair! Razor burn, ingrown hairs, and embarrassing stubble will be a thing of the past after your IPL Hair Removal treatment.
