Before and After Gallery
How long does a brow wax last?
Clients typically come in once a month for regular upkeep.
Can I tweeze between waxes?
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 waxing?
For many people, eyebrow waxing 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.
Men’s Brow Shape
Brow correction through continuous brow shaping
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 shape.
While brow shapes are 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.
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

Whether your brows were victim to teenage over-tweezing, a brow job gone wrong, or accidental trauma, we offer solutions for brow correction in Edmonton.
We offer a variety of methods to re-shape and reconstruct your eyebrows. It comes down to several factors, including how much time you want to spend restoring your brows.
How do you fix bad eyebrows?
Correction of a bad brow wax or over-plucking can be done via a series of brow shapes. The BrowShape is Dermica’s signature go-to service for brow definition or a quick fix. It includes a precise shape using your facial measurements, gentle soft wax application, tweeze, and trim.
Generally, it takes 15-20 minutes to compete and lasts between 2-5 weeks. You may tweeze freely in-between appointments, however, we recommend that you leave the hair close to the brow line for your appointment.
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 shape.
While brow shapes are 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 offer Lash lift and Tint services in YEG. Join us on Lash Lift Thursdays when all lash care services are 20% off.
Minimum lash length for Lash Lift
The eyelashes should be a minimum of a half centimetre long in order to do the service safely. If your eyelashes do not quite meet the required length, try using a lash enhancement serum for 8 weeks in preparation for your Lash Lift.
Is tinting the lashes safe?
Lash tint is safe. We use specialized dyes on eyelashes that have a relatively lower peroxide content of 3% as opposed to hair dye. The role of peroxide is to open up the seal of the hair.
Relatively speaking, the 3% found in the specialized tint is very mild. It won’t completely open the hair, just enough to deposit the colour.
Tips to achieve healthier eyelashes
Removing your makeup properly is very important when growing the lashes naturally. Make sure that your lashes are properly cleansed down to the base.
Remember, the more obstruction you have along that area, the harder it will be for that hair to grow to its fullest potential. Avoid using very drying agents around the eyes. For example, some makeup removers can be very drying which is going to make the lashes a lot more brittle.
Try to avoid astringent or alcohol-based makeup remover on the eyes. Use conditioning serums that will feed your lashes with proper ingredients. Castor oil is a common ingredient in brow and eyelash conditioners. It is known to help promote length and volume in the eyebrows and lashes.
Lash Lift Care Instructions
Maintain your lash lift by following the recommended aftercare. Avoid water, steam, makeup for the first 48 hours. After that, try to use mild cleansers around the eyes. Avoid strong astringents or alcohol-based and oil-based eye makeup removers.
