🙅🏼‍♀️ Not all laser hair removal systems are the same.

Choosing the right technology is a critical part of patient care and the Clarity II is one of the most advanced laser platforms available for hair removal 💫

It allows us to treat unwanted hair safely and effectively across all skin types, with precision and consistency.

What sets it apart? The experience✨

Treatments are faster, more comfortable, and better tolerated than many other laser systems, which are often limited in who they can treat and can require longer, more uncomfortable sessions.

We’ve been especially impressed with the results we’re seeing in laser hair removal, including patients with PCOS and hormonally driven hair growth, where consistency and appropriate technology make a significant difference.

Technology should support safety, inclusivity, and reliable results, and that’s exactly why we chose the Clarity II.

If you’re curious whether laser hair removal is right for you, we offer complimentary 15-minute laser consultations. Booking is available through the 🔗 in our bio.

Winter tends to ask a little more of our skin ❄️

Dryness, tightness, and dullness are common this time of year, which makes January a great time to focus on hydration and barrier support.

Our winter promos are designed to do just that.

✨ Winter Skin Reset
Combine our Vivier Glow Facial with dermaplaning to smooth texture and boost hydration, then take home our most-loved skin balancer, Hale Derma (2oz), to keep skin feeling healthy through the colder months. $165 + tax

💋 Mini Lip Plump + PepChat
Lips feeling dry or depleted? This promo is all about comfort, hydration, and subtle definition. Rejuvenate and hydrate with a mini lip plump, then take home our newest lip saviour, PepChat, to keep lips feeling soft and supported at home. $350 + tax

☀️ Laser Hair Removal
Laser hair removal is where planning ahead really pays off. When you purchase any laser hair removal package over $700, you’ll receive an additional laser package for either the underarms or upper lip at no cost, making winter the ideal time to get started for smoother skin later on.

Book online or reach out if you have questions. We’re always happy to help 🤍

If filler isn’t the right fit, biostimulators can offer a different path to rejuvenation 💫

Unlike traditional fillers that replace volume or soften lines directly, biostimulators work by encouraging your body to produce its own collagen and elastin over time.

At the Skin Clinic Antigonish, we offer two biostimulators: Sculptra and Radiesse.

✨ Sculptra focuses on gradually improving skin quality, with results developing slowly and lasting up to two years.

✨ Radiesse provides more immediate lift and contour, while also stimulating collagen production for continued improvement, with results lasting around one year.

Both treatments can be very effective, the right choice depends on your individual goals, facial structure, and timeline.

A thorough consultation allows us to determine the most appropriate approach and create a plan that supports natural, long-term results. You can book one now at the link in my bio 😉

Chapped lips are practically a winter tradition, but they don’t have to be 😉

Cue PepChat Lip Serum: a treatment-focused way to moisturize deeply, support your barrier, and bring out your lips’ natural shape

This Canadian-made formula uses biomimetic peptides to support fuller, more defined lips while softening the look of fine lines around the mouth.

Ceramides, sodium hyaluronate, and dermomimetic lipids work together to restore moisture, smooth texture, and keep your barrier protected through the driest months 👄

🍇 What really sets it apart is the antioxidant-rich Niagara grape extract (featuring 50% pure Vitamin C) to defend against environmental stressors and keep your lips looking healthy and refreshed.

Think of it as skincare for your lips:
✨ Deep, long-lasting hydration
✨ A smoother, softer finish
✨ Support for lip contour and natural definition
✨ A clean, sustainable, Canadian-made formula

Use it daily (and especially before bed) for soft, hydrated lips that feel cared for, not coated.

If your lips are feeling the winter dryness, this may become your new favourite step. Let us know if you’d like to pick one up or add it to your next visit.

Thank you to everyone who joined us for our Open House 🥂

Your support, your conversations, and your presence mean more than we can say.

We’re grateful for this community and for the trust you place in our team every day.

Maintenance is the key to results that stay 💫

Making your treatment results last longer with medical-grade skincare starts with choosing products that truly support your treatments.

When we invest in treatments together (microneedling, neurotoxins, peels, laser) your skin is already in a state of renewal 🔄

Medical-grade skincare builds on that progress by delivering higher-quality ingredients, better absorption, and clinically backed results that keep your skin looking healthy long after your appointment.

🛡Think of it as protecting your investment.

The right products don’t just “maintain” your results, they help amplify them, extend them, and keep your skin functioning at its best day after day.

During your visit, we’ll always walk you through what your skin truly needs, what’s worth prioritizing, and which products will give you the longest-lasting return on your treatments. A little guidance goes a long way in keeping your results glowing.

If you're ready to pair your treatments with a skincare routine that actually makes a difference, you can book a consultation through the link in our bio.

Remembrance Day | November 11

Remembrance Day is a time to reflect on the bravery and sacrifice of those who served, and the countless lives forever changed by war.

What began as Armistice Day, marking the end of the First World War, has become a day to honour all who have defended peace and freedom, both then and now.

More than 61,000 Canadians lost their lives in the First World War, with many more returning home with wounds that could not be seen.

Today, we remember their courage, their sacrifice, and the enduring hope for peace.

Lest we forget.

👩🏻‍⚕️ Nurse Practitioners play in essential role providing compassionate, patient-centred care across Nova Scotia and Canada

NP’s are highly trained healthcare professionals who assess, diagnose, prescribe, and manage care for individuals and families through every stage of life.

They bridge the gap in a healthcare system that’s under pressure, helping patients access timely, safe, and comprehensive care when they need it most✨

NP Week is also an important reminder of the need to continue supporting and expanding the scope of practice for Nurse Practitioners, ensuring we can keep delivering high-quality care to every community, big or small.

Here’s to all the NPs working hard every day to make healthcare more accessible, equitable, and compassionate 🫶

🤍 Happy Nurse Practitioner Week #

If you’re serious about achieving smoother, brighter, more even skin, retinol is the gold standard 🌟

This Vitamin A derivative works below the surface to boost collagen, refine texture, and reduce fine lines, breakouts, and pigmentation.

But success with retinol isn’t about using the strongest product, it’s about using the right one 🎯

Medical-grade formulations, like Vivier Retinol SR Complex, are stabilized, pure, and clinically tested to deliver visible results safely and effectively.

Remember to keep your skin hydrated and protected with daily SPF. Pairing your retinol with daily SPF ensures your new skin stays protected as it renews 🔁

Consistency, quality, and patience are key, and with the right guidance, retinol can completely transform your skin’s health and appearance.

✨ Book a skincare consultation or stop by the clinic to talk about which Vivier retinol is right for you.
