I am writing to share my horrendous experience with Beauty Rewind. In January, I had a lip filler…read moreprocedure with Aly that left me severely deformed. The filler caused unsightly pockets, lumps, and bumps in my lips, and overall a bo*ched look as seen in photo 1 attached. Despite having had filler procedures before, the clinic insisted that my swollen appearance was normal, despite my face being swollen for almost two weeks, where I could barely open my eyes, nose was swollen. A second opinion confirmed this was abnormal. Over the next 4.5 months, I endured three dissolving sessions to correct the issue. My lips remain disfigured, especially when I smile. The bo*ched procedure severely impacted my smile and confidence. I had to wear a mask to hide my deformed lips during social engagements, including work and my cousin's engagement party. This persisted throughout January and February, some of March preventing me from attending daily social activities, work, gym, volunteer. The state of my lips during January and February can be seen in Photo #1, during this time my work made an exception and let me work from home. Despite visiting the clinic twice, the nurses insisted my appearance was normal and assured me I would be fine. I had to take off most of January to work from home and was advised to wait a month before dissolving, leading to more time off for swelling and healing. Even after the dissolving procedure in March and two more visits, nothing was resolved. The inside skin of my lips bulged out, and bumps remained. Drinking was difficult due to the disfiguration, with liquids often seeping out the sides of my lip. This has turned into a relentless ordeal, affecting my ability to show my face in public. Despite this, I continued to work with the clinic, hoping for a resolution. However, their policies are inconsistently enforced, and they refuse to assist you. Their patient care practices disappear once they realize their mistake is costly. Twice this year, I had to reschedule appointments due to unforeseen circumstances--once due to a doctor-ordered quarantine and another time because my car was hit. The clinic falsely claimed I had canceled eight times, ignoring that unforeseen events can happen within 48 hours of an appointment. When I called to reschedule due to a legal matter involving a hit-and-run, the clinic abruptly informed me I was no longer allowed to book appointments and would be taking my $100 deposit, which was never enforced before, and was never given a warning. Keep in mind, if you call within the 48-hour cancellation time to reschedule, you will be marked automatically in their system for late cancellation, which is what happened with me earlier this year. Additionally, after reviewing my emails, I noticed I would receive emails, where the email would say the time and date of my appointment and say that it has been changed to the same time and date originally booked for - which makes absolutely no sense. Lastly, I want to add that it's been hard enough to come in for dissolving after dissolving hoping my lips will return back to normal, the distress caused by the clinic manager has been an additional stressor. I am beyond frustrated and upset as this experience has destroyed my smile and confidence, and I paid for a procedure that left my lips disfigured. I urge anyone considering this clinic to research the practitioners and their education thoroughly. Beauty Rewind does not care about patient care once the procedure is done, and your face is disfigured. They do not treat patients well if something goes wrong, barely claiming responsibility, and will stop responding, & take your money. With my sister getting married in one month at a 700-person event, I am left to figure things out on my own. I am now seeking legal advice for the disfiguration caused, incompetent management and lack of empathy/patient care. I strongly advise against choosing Beauty Rewind for any procedures. I wish I could attach full photos, however, I would like my patient privacy to be respected.

Today was my 3rd visit to Life Stiles (http://www.lifestiles.ca/)…read more They offer chiropractic treatments and spa treatments such as massage and laser hair removal. The building itself is kept immaculately clean and the staff have always been uber friendly and professional. I originally purchased a Living Social (think Groupon) deal over a year ago for laser hair removal. I found out shortly after that I was pregnant and was unable to use the voucher. The laser technician, Jillian, offered for me to return after I had my baby and advised that they would extend the expiry date. Since having my baby 9 months ago, I have come for 2 session, with Jillian, who has been an absolute pleasure. I was definitely a little nervous, to say the least, that I may be treated differently because of my voucher but that has not been the case. They have free parking spaces in the back (so don't pay at a meter on 124th street) and a basket of sandals to slip on when you come through the door. You will walk through the Chiropractic area filled with modern items like stability balls and a trampoline. The decor is gorgeous and quite tranquil! The owner, Dr. Greg Stiles, is a chiropractor and I have run into him several times - and is he is as charming as he is handsome. I have overhead him working with patients and he has an amazingly calm and gentle demeanour. Even Jillian, the laser technician I see, has only had wonderful things to say about working for him. In fact, when I consider chiropractic treatments in the future I will start with Mr. Stiles! I also appreciate that they sell items that are health conscious - nail polishes free of dbp, formaldehyde and toluene. The also carry the Juice Plus line of greens and fruits that is supported by Dr. William Sears (www.askdrsears.com) - MY FAVORITE go to doctor and website for all things natural and parenting! They carry a few of his books here and I also was able to check out one of his DVDs to borrow for free! Upon arrival, I am always offered complimentary tea (and they have quite a selection) or chilled water. They have apples and snacks in their tranquil seating area that also boasts a fireplace. I uploaded a few pics - so check them out! I've also picked up some goodies from their clearance bin for my toddler (nail polish free of all that junk I mentioned above) and some high end make up items for myself. Check out their website and you will find a link to both their Chiropractic and their Spa. The website is gorgeous - a real plus in my books! The Chiropractic one has this listed for services: To best assist you in your quest for optimal health, our practice provides many products and services including: Chiropractic care for health matinance, motor vehicle accident treatment and pregnancy Massage therapy and accupuncture Erchonia cold laser tteament Revlar oxidative stress testing Posture analysis Dietary supplements and support Bodo infared sauna Exercise support The Spa site has the following listed under services: Relax, Rejuvenate, Enjoy We are proud to offer top of the line treatments using world renowned product lines and performed by friendly, professional service providers.

Acupuncture & Massage Advanced Skin Care Bridal Packages Chemical Peels Facials Feet, Hands and Body Laser Hair Removal Laser Treatments Men`s Treatments Packages Visa Complexion Analysis Waxing and Threading I should also mention that they have evening and weekend appointments available - a definitely plus! I really cannot say enough about the overall atmosphere of this place! I feel very fortunate to have tried them on a Living Social voucher and I definitely see myself continuing to utilize their services! So this is a rarity for me, but I'm giving them 5 stars! I'm not quite sure how I'd rate them for ALL of their services but my experience so far could not have been any better! (And a 5 star experience on my 3rd visit on a Living Social voucher - we all know how those experiences sometimes turn out!)

As promised, I'm writing an update to my last review of Tropicalaser…read more I went to my scheduled follow up appointment last week after having micro-pigmentation on my eyebrows. I required a few more "feathers" drawn onto my new eyebrow line to fill them out properly. Micro-pigmentation takes about 90 minutes including the freezing gel application. It takes about a week to heal with frequent applications of Polysporin or other antibiotic gel. The dark, scary look fades after 2 days as the process heals. Itching is normal. Don't scratch! I'm looking like a starlet today! Is it worth $350.00? When all is said and done, YES. It was a big hit to the pocketbook, but I scrimp and save in all other areas of my beauty routine, so I think it evens out. I feel like I have a younger, sexier face. I'm very happy with Tropicalaser.

Even my best friend who does not give out compliments about make-up or looks says I look great with eyebrows again and is NOW thinking about having it done too.

The permement make-up she did for me boasted my confidence, love you Daisy!!!

Friendly staff. Lots of services. Pricy…read more I've known about external affairs for a very long time as I frequent tons of spas. I won a giveaway and was able to try the services. I had my facial consult which was neat because they took photos to see problem areas on my skin. I found the consult to not be so helpful. I was recommended things that other spas would refuse to do to my skin because it was too harsh. I'm super careful and knowledgeable about different treatments so this kind of sent off a red flag for me. They really only recommended treatments which they had the machines for which was pretty limited from what I am accustomed to from going to medical spas. I also was actually taken back by the prices as they were alot more than other places I've been to. Hence probably why I never tried them before. Anyways...I ended up being model for a hydra facial Deluxe for $235 and got 50% off my treatment. The tech was actually new and I felt like she didn't give me a proper treatment because I could feel that she had missed some areas and didn't focus on my problematic areas (nose and chin). Luckily I was using a gift card and got a discount for the treatment. But if I had paid full price I would definitely have been disappointed. Overall. They have good options available for treatments and plenty of products which I am yet to try. And maybe I'll come back for one of their specials. But my skin didn't feel or look as glorious as it typically did compared to getting a $235 treatment elsewhere. So I'm not sure I can justify the full price from this experience. It was overall a positive experience but a few things were off for me. I am a spa addict and I have extremely high expectations of going to a spa for treatments so take this with a grain of salt.

I stumbled upon Elysian after buying a group for 3 organic Eminence facials. It was a great deal,…read moreand I've had facials using eminence products in the past and always loved it, so I figured why not! The spa is in a convenient West End location that was easy enough for me to get to from SW. During all 3 of my visits, the staff were so warm and welcoming. The spa is clean & quiet, and the treatment room is very relaxing. I had a different aesthetician for each of my facials, and they all did a good job. They were able to answer any questions I had about the eminence products used, and customized my facial according to whether or not I was going out after or going home (ie. redness, shine, etc.). Elysian has an easy online booking system through their website, and I notice they have promotions on their Facebook page so you should check that out. Overall, I would definitely recommend Elysian and I'll be returning!
