Questions, answered.

Either can do excellent work — what actually matters is the depth of training in the specific procedures you're receiving. In aesthetics, many of the most respected and sought-after injectors in Canada are nurses, not doctors, because they've spent years specializing in injectables specifically. I'm a Registered Practical Nurse working under the medical direction of Nurse Practitioner Lauren Scott. I've spent 5 years specializing exclusively in aesthetic medicine and reinvest in advanced training every year. When you're choosing an injector, ask about their injectable specific training, how often they treat the area you're interested in, and who their Medical Director is — those answers tell you more than the title does.

A Medical Director is a regulated healthcare professional — usually a physician or Nurse Practitioner — who oversees clinical decisions and supports complex cases or complications. They also have the authority to prescribe the medications we use in our practice. It's required by Ontario regulation for nurse-led aesthetic practice, and beyond the legal requirement, it ensures there's a second clinical mind reviewing care. Lauren Scott, NP, is our Medical Director.

The best way is a free in-person consultation. We'll talk about your concerns, your goals, your budget, and your history with treatments. From there I'll give you my honest recommendation — including whether the treatment you came in asking about is actually the right one. Sometimes it isn't, and I'll tell you so.

Yes. Consultations can be booked alone or as a “consult and same-day treatment” if you'd like to be treated the same visit.

Yes to both. Packages are available across most services and are designed to support clients on a long-term treatment plan — most aesthetic treatments produce the best results when done as a series, and packages make that more accessible. Financing is available through our partner DoFinance, which lets you spread the cost of a treatment plan over time.

A valid credit card is required to secure your booking — you won't be charged at the time of booking. We ask for at least 48 hours' notice for any reschedule or cancellation. Appointments cancelled within 48 hours, missed, or arrived more than 15 minutes late may be subject to a $50 fee charged to the card on file. The full policy is on the Contact page.

Most treatments are quite manageable. I use a gentle technique with topical numbing, lidocaine-mixed products, ice, and careful pacing to keep you comfortable. Most clients are surprised by how easy their treatments actually are.

It depends on the treatment. Botox has essentially no downtime — you can return to your day right after. Filler could result in swelling or bruising and should be planned around events or travel. Microneedling has 24–72 hours of redness. Deep laser treatments can have 2–3 days of redness. We'll review what to expect for your specific treatment at consultation and this information will be included in online forms.

This also varies by treatment. Botox is visible at 7–14 days and lasts 3–4 months. Filler is immediate (with full results settling at 2 weeks) and lasts 12+ months. Sculptra develops as soon as 4 weeks and over 2–3 months. It lasts up to 2 years. PRP and microneedling build collagen and results over 4–6 weeks. Each service page on this site has a results timeline specific to that treatment.

For neuromodulators, primarily Dysport and Nucieva (Botox brand available on request). For dermal fillers, Revanesse. For biostimulators, Sculptra. For microneedling add-ons, PRP and VAMP by Prollenium. For skincare, ZO Skin Health, AlumierMD, Hydrinity, and Halederma. All injectable products are Health Canada approved.

Every injectable and skin treatment carries some risk — bruising, swelling, redness, and rare complications. I review the specific risks of each treatment with you in detail at consultation, and we discuss your full health history before booking. Choosing a properly trained provider working under medical direction is the most important factor in keeping risk low.

We'll talk through it. For Botox, we can adjust at the 2-week follow-up. For hyaluronic acid filler, we can make adjustments as well at the 2–4 week mark. For PRP, microneedling, and other regenerative treatments, results build over time — patience is part of the process.

Often, yes. Botox and filler can be done together. Microneedling can be combined with PRP or VAMP. Mesotherapy facials pair beautifully with Botox and filler. We'll plan combinations safely at consultation.

No — most aesthetic treatments are not recommended during pregnancy or breastfeeding. There isn't enough clinical research to confirm safety in these cases, so I won't treat. We'll plan for treatment when you're ready.

No. Whether you prefer softened movement or fully relaxed muscles, neuromodulators and filler can look entirely natural when placed thoughtfully — natural doesn't mean barely visible. You'll still see meaningful results. We tailor every treatment to your face, your goals, and what suits you.

Because every treatment is customized. We focus on results, not one-size-fits-all pricing. Neuromodulators are priced by unit and units required depend on muscle strength, skin integrity, lifestyle, etc. We cannot give you a price without assessing you.

We cannot determine how many syringes you will need until an in-person assessment is done. Please do not send your provider pictures of your face as we cannot determine without seeing you in person.

Yes — gift cards can be purchased in person or online here. They're delivered digitally and are redeemable on any service.

Drugstore skincare uses lower concentrations of active ingredients, which means it's safe for everyone — but also that it often doesn't move the needle on real concerns. Medical-grade skincare uses higher, clinically tested concentrations and is dispensed by professionals who can guide proper use. It's how you maintain and amplify the results of in-clinic treatments.
