Spa Reviews Edmonton, It’s all about Reviews!

We are quickly learning that today more than ever, people make selections based on the opinions of their peers and the masses. This is a very intelligent way to make decisions on where to acquire desired goods and services. Through the use of the internet and social media, consumers can rely on the experiences of others with particular companies, services, or goods. Perhaps of even more importance, through reviews, people can avoid negative experiences.

This is why we are happy to announce that we are adding a new menu tab REVIEWS, and with a simple click you will be redirected to the different reviews our clients have posted after visiting Dérmica MedEsthetics.

Here’s what our clients have to say about us so far:

Arienne K., Edmonton, AB, 5.0 star rating
“I have been a loyal customer of Dermica since they opened. Jhoenna and Sylvia do great work. I’m consistently happy with the services they provide. I am always treated like an old friend. I recommend Dermica highly for the quality of service, the professionalism and personal warmth of the staff and the prices.”

Cheryl Quiring, Edmonton, AB, 5.0 star rating
“The Dermica Facial is absolutely amazing. Johanna is clearly a MASTER at her trade – my skin looks incredible and that was probably the most relaxing hour of my life. Bonus; it’s a steal at only $85!”

Elva F., Edmonton, AB, 5.0 star rating
“I am a proud client of Dermica. I came here on the recommendation of a friend and I am glad I took her up on the advice. I go here to get my brows done – I get them both waxed and tinted. I have gone to other places around Edmonton and paid extortionate prices for the same thing – Dermica is very reasonably priced with a good loyalty system and a nice, satisfying job done on the brows. Jhoenna is just great – the first time I went I found that I would have liked by brows more defined so the next time I explained, she listened, and did exactly what I asked. Explain what you would like and she will try her best to give you the results you require. Definitely come along and try it out for yourself.”

Nayely A., Edmonton, AB, 5.0 star rating
“Being new to Edmonton, I was very anxious about who to trust with my eyebrows. I finally decided on Dermica, since it had lower prices on waxing than some high end salons. Finally, I went to get them done, and I was welcomed by Sylvia (I believe that was her name). It is a very calming and chic environment, so I instantly felt better. She even offered me slippers!
When I got into the room to start the waxing, she asked if I was happy with my eyebrow shape. I was glad she asked because sometimes the aestheticians try to change things. She was quick and concise and I left with fresh brows! It even hurt less than other waxings I’ve had. When she thought she was done she showed me and mentioned that my eyebrows were noticeably asymmetric and she could fix it. This is something I had noticed naturally in my eyebrows before and of course let her try and fix it. So I was very grateful for that and that she informed me.
Honestly, bless the ladies that work here. Great business and services. Will be coming back!”

ALIVIA FAQs

#3ALIVIA-MEfaqs

ALIVIA FAQs

Q: How does the treatment work on superficial blood vessels? A: The applied IPL-DPC is absorbed by the oxyhemoglobin (formed by the combination of hemoglobin with oxygen, present in oxygenated blood) in the blood within the vessel, causing the blood to coagulate and the vessel to break up into particles that are naturally filtered away through the body’s lymphatic system. Q: What is IPL-DPC? A: IPL-DPC stands for Intense Pulse Light- Dynamic Pulse Control. This treatment emits a light beam into the skin which is absorbed by different skin lesions. Through selective photothermolysis, this light pulse selectively destroys a specified target without damaging the surrounding tissue. The DPC technology means that we can determine the “aggressiveness” of the treatment based on the duration of the pulse; shorter pulses are more aggressive, delivering the light beam in a shorter period of time, while longer pulses are less aggressive as they have a longer period to deliver the light beam. The different range of pulse durations results in a major increase in the safety and effectiveness of the treatment. Q: How many treatments are required? A: The typical regimen is an average of 6 treatment sessions, spaced 6 weeks apart. However, the number of treatments is completely up to you depending on the results you desire. Q: How long is the recovery phase? Is there any downtime? A: The ALIVIA ME Rx does NOT require any downtime whatsoever! You can come in during your lunch hour and return to work and no one will ever know why you look better than you did in the morning! ;) Q: How long does a treatment take? A: This depends on the different treatments you would like during your session, however, a full ALIVIA ME photo facial Rx takes 15-30 minutes, after which you can continue your daily routine. Q: Is the ALIVIA ME Rx painful? A: No, during the procedure, a slight, momentary stinging sensation may be felt, comparable to the snapping of a small elastic band, but not pain. Q: Is the ALIVIA ME Rosacea Treatment Safe? A: Our Skin Experts are knowledgeable on our technology, AND on the biology of the skin. This increases the safety of all of our treatments. Our treatments are non-invasive and safe, with minimum side effects if any at all. Side effects could possibly include:
  • Discomfort (stinging sensation up to one hour after treatment)
  • Change of Pigmentation (most cases occur on people with darker skin and can be avoided by conducting a test patch
  • Fragile Skin (skin may become temporarily fragile)
  • Purpura (purple bruising lasting from 5-15 days)
  • Scarring (may happen on darker skin but still, very rare)

Dark Spot Corrector – ACLARA photofacial

ipl phototherapy edmonton

 

FAQs on our Dark Spot Corrector Tx in Edmonton, ACLARA 

TECHNOLOGY

How does this dark spot corrector treatment get rid of pigmented lesions?

Targeted areas absorb the pulse light, breaking the pigmented lesion into tiny particles. These particles rise to the surface of the skin as scabs that naturally slough off with exfoliation within 1-2 weeks.

What is IPL-DPC?

laser hair removal side effects

IPL-DPC stands for Intense Pulse Light- Dynamic Pulse Control. Phototherapy treatments emit a light beam into the skin that is absorbed by different skin lesions.

Through selective photothermolysis, the light pulse destroys a specified target without damaging the surrounding tissue. Through DPC technology we can determine the “aggressiveness” of the treatment based on the duration of the pulse.

Shorter pulses are more aggressive, delivering the light beam in a shorter period of time. Longer pulses are less aggressive as they have a longer period to deliver the light beam.

The different range of pulse durations results in a major increase in the safety and effectiveness of the treatment.

Is ACLARA safe?

Our Skin Experts are knowledgeable on our chosen technology and the biology of the skin. As a result, this increases the safety of all of our treatments. Above all, our treatments are non-invasive with minimum side effects if any at all. Side effects could possibly include:

  • Discomfort (stinging sensation up to one hour after treatment)
  • Change of Pigmentation (most cases occur on people with darker skin and can be avoided by conducting a test patch
  • Fragile Skin (skin may become temporarily fragile)
  • Purpura (purple bruising lasting from 5-15 days)
  • Scarring (may happen on darker skin but still, very rare)

TREATMENT

How many ACLARA treatments are required?

The typical regimen is an average of 6-8 treatment sessions, spaced 3-4 weeks apart. However, the number of treatments is completely up to you depending on the results you desire.

How long is the recovery phase? Is there any downtime?

ACLARA does NOT require any downtime whatsoever! You can come in during your lunch hour and return to work and no one will ever know why you look better than you did in the morning! ;)

How long does a treatment take?

This depends on the different treatments you would like during your session, however, a full face ACLARA photofacial takes 30-45 minutes, after which you can continue your daily routine.

Are photofacials painful?

No, during the procedure, a slight, momentary stinging sensation may be felt, comparable to the snapping of a small elastic band, but not pain.

Anti Aging Edmonton

Anti Aging Edmonton

 

Anti aging Edmonton

Some of us may start to see a slowing-down of our skin’s regenerating process as early as our late twenties. Our fine lines penetrate deeper and deeper with every smile and every frown. Before we know it, we start to see crow’s feet forming, marionette lines getting deeper, etc. Aging is a natural part of life and therefore we must embrace it.

Helping your skin care for itself for as long as it can.

Dérmica understands your skin cells’ regeneration process and the different factors that may affect your skin’s ability to replenish itself.

Our skin can continue to regenerate itself for as long as possible through treatments, maintenance, and products.

Benefits of anti aging treatments

👉 Anti aging treatments correct long term problem areas. For example, scars that were once zits which you popped and became infected.

👉 Treatments encourage your skin to resume regeneration. Missing elements that are necessary for skin to replenish itself (such as nutrients and hydration) rejuvenate the skin.

👉 They train your skin to care for itself. Especially during climate changes and extreme weather conditions (such as the ones we experience living in Edmonton, Alberta).


At Dérmica, we offer a wide range of MedEsthetics treatments and products, as well as anti aging tips for the Edmonton climate.

Our anti aging treatments include a variety of chemical peels. Peels work by separating the upper layers of the skin causing an accelerated cell turnover rate. Because of their molecular structure, these acids are able to penetrate past the acid mantle of the skin and deep into the layers beneath the surface of the skin. This causes your skin to shed and regenerate.

Our advanced laser treatments are tailored to treat major skin conditions and deliver maximum results. With just a quick pulse of light we can diminish brown spots, redness, fine lines, and broken capillaries, all symptoms of aging skin.

Facials are great for anti aging maintenance. Designed to help reverse/ prevent premature aging, we incorporate highly concentrated products in all our facials. After a deep cleanse, exfoliation, and hydrating steam, we pack the skin with nutrients with a relaxing anti-aging massage using brightening, hydrating pharmaceutical-grade, paraben-free, natural products.

For anti aging home maintenance, we carry great anti aging serums that are an excellent way to ensure you are feeding your skin the regular nutrients it needs to regenerate itself when acclimated to Edmonton.

Love, Peace, and Great Skin!

Laser Spa Party Edmonton

free laser services

Laser Spa Party: The Festivities come to a conclusion

Well, another spa party has come and gone and we are happy to report that this one too, was a success! We hope everyone had a good time interacting with friends and meeting new people, and of course, indulging in some free laser treatments!!!

During our laser spa party, we showcased our range of Med Esthetics treatments and provided free laser treatments to all of our guests who met eligibility for our treatments, which to our delight, we were able to treat ALL our guests!!

We treated some guest with Dérmica’s ALIVIA ME Treatment. This treatment is perfect for skin conditions characterized by frequent, consistent redness, and visible capillaries such as Rosacea, couperose skin, sensitized skin, or simply genetically sensitive skin.

We also treated some of our guests with our ALISA ME Treatment; Ideal for treating dull skin appearance, textural damage such as scarring, fine lines, wrinkles, and mature skin on small to large areas of the face, neck, chest, hands, and arms.

We found one of the more popular laser services was our ACLARA ME Treatment. We find this to be the ultimate solution to clear dark spots, sun spots, or pigment scarring. This treatment lightens and clears light to dark pigmented lesions on areas of the face, neck, chest, arms, legs, and hands.

And of course, as expected, we had a great response on our
IPL Hair Reduction/ Laser Hair Removal Treatments as we treated many guests with a complimentary IPL treatment/first session.

Having said that, we would like to advise all of our guests who attended the laser spa party and received free laser treatments, that even though you will be very pleased with the results after just one session, it is important to complete your full treatment to see permanent results. Our treatments are achieve permanent results with 3-6 sessions.

So now that Dérmica has started you on a path to clear, smooth skin, we encourage all our guests to continue on that path, and book your next session within 4-6 weeks of your first treatment, which Dermica was happy to provide ☺ We are offering an EXTENDED PROMOTION: Book your service before April 30 and receive 10% OFF your individual treatment or receive 15% OFF your laser treatment package and STILL RECEIVE your package perks!
