CARBON TAX IN CANADA

By now you might've heard the news or seen the change in price at the pump in certain provinces.

The federal government increased the carbon tax from $65 per tonne to $80 per tonne but offsets the tax by offering a tax rebate.

That's almost an increase of 20%.

With the price of gas constantly rising along with new taxes, it would be interesting to see what's more expensive between gas and botox. Both are expensive liquids but with very different purposes.

To give you an example:

If you pay 50$ a week for gas, that's $2600/year.

If you pay $600 every 4 months for botox, that's $2400/year.

Comment below what you think is more expensive!

Why is your face important?

Behind every line, every contour, lies a story waiting to be told. Our faces are not merely canvases for beauty, but intricate maps of our experiences, emotions, and journeys.

In the realm of medical aesthetics, we recognize the profound role of the face as a tool for expression and communication. Every treatment, every enhancement, is not just about enhancing outer beauty, but about empowering individuals to tell their unique stories with confidence.

Let us celebrate the beauty of authenticity, the power of expression, and the artistry of communication, one treatment at a time.



_________________________________________________

Derrière chaque ride, chaque contour, réside une histoire en attente d'être racontée. Nos visages ne sont pas simplement des toiles pour la beauté, mais des cartes complexes de nos expériences, émotions et parcours.

Dans le domaine de l'esthétique médicale, nous reconnaissons le rôle profond du visage comme un outil d'expression et de communication. Chaque traitement, chaque amélioration, ne s'agit pas seulement d'améliorer la beauté extérieure, mais d'habiliter les individus à raconter leurs histoires uniques avec confiance.

Célébrons la beauté de l'authenticité, le pouvoir de l'expression et l'art de la communication, un traitement à la fois.

❌️ IV THERAPY ❌️

If you've been following my stories, you might seen yesterday that for the first time in many years, 4 professional orders of health care professionals in Quebec including the CMQ, OIIQ, OPQ, ODQ have agreed on something: IV therapy has no proven benefits and shouldn't be encouraged due to potential risks associated.

This is especially relevant in the field of medical aesthetics where clinics prioritize maximizing profits over the benefit of the patient. There are so many skincare and beauty trends that have little to no scientific evidence backing it up.

Look I'm no "anti-drip" or "drip hater" 🤬 but the fact that cosmetic clinics have the audacity to charge patients 300-400$ for a bag of IV fluid containing vitamins in "cocktails" while claiming unproven benefits is beyond me and frankly unethical. 😒

Don't be fooled by their "aesthetic" and clean instagram pages. Do your research. 🧐

Take a read at the statements above.

❌️ THÉRAPIE INTRAVEINEUSE ❌️

Si vous avez suivi mes stories hier, vous avez peut-être vu que pour la 1e fois depuis de nombreuses années, quatre ordres professionnels de la santé du Québec, dont le CMQ, l'OIIQ, l'OPQ et l'ODQ se sont mis d'accord sur leur position en lien avec la thérapie intraveineuse: qu'elle n'a pas de bénéfices prouvés et ne devrait pas être encouragée en raison des risques potentiels associés.

Cela est particulièrement pertinent dans le domaine de l'esthétique médicale, où les cliniques privilégient la maximisation des profits plutôt que les soins du patient. Il existe de nombreuses tendances en matière de soins de la peau et de beauté qui ont peu ou pas de preuves scientifiques à leur appui. Je ne suis pas opposé aux perfusions intraveineuses mais le fait que les cliniques esthétiques osent facturer aux patients 300 à 400 $ pour un liquide intraveineux contenant des vitamines dans des "cocktails", tout en prétendant des avantages non prouvés, me dépasse et est franchement immoral.😒

Ne vous laissez pas tromper par leurs pages Instagram "esthétiques". Faites vos recherches.🧐

⭐️ INJECTABLES MASTERCLASS ⭐️

When I first started my practice in Montreal, I noticed that there was very little adequate training in medical aesthetics in Quebec.

Back in the days, Toronto had some of the more advanced classes and training for adept injectors compared to Montreal and that's where I spent most of time perfecting techniques and shadowing injectors.

Flash forward a couple of years and now there are basic courses that you can take over the weekend and on the Monday you could start injecting.

Better, but absolutely WILD if you ask me. 😵

And then they wonder why there are so many complications... 🥱🤷‍♂️

These weekend courses are a good start but there's a solid lack of guidance: there are 10 students for a couple of models and only 1 instructor. Sometimes they can't even help you since there are so many students.

You'll get WAY more than your money's worth with this one: ALL of my students have either landed a job at a renowed medical aesthetic clinic or have started their own practice.

Distinguish yourself from the competition and embark on a transformative journey with this Masterclass, meticulously curated for passionate nurses and physicians seeking to take their practice to the next level in aesthetics.

What sets this class apart:

✨ Tailored to Your Needs
Just like personalized medical aesthetic treatments, our Masterclass adapts to your specific goals and focuses on areas in your practice that require more attention.

You'll have the opportunity to be exposed to:
✨ The Art of the Consultation
✨ Advanced Precision Techniques
✨ Strategic Social Media Marketing
✨ Exclusive Branding Insights
✨ Industry Secrets

Join me personally for an intensive 1:1 experience, where I'll share the keys to my success in the competitive realm of aesthetics. Engage in hands-on sessions with models for a comprehensive learning experience.

Elevate your practice to new heights of proficiency! Reserve your seat now to be part of this prestigious educational opportunity.

Next Masterclass at the end of January 2024!

ASIAN LIQUIS RHINO

😊 Treatment: Non-Surgical Rhinoplasty
🥳 Results: Immediate but true results in 3 weeks
😱 Pain: Minimal
👌 Technique: Needle or cannula
😴 Anesthesia: Topical + Vibrata
⏰ Time: 30 minutes
📅 Recovery: Most swelling subsides within 5 days, bruises can last longer up to 3 weeks
⚠️ Caution: Must be performed by experienced injector
💵 Cost: Per treatment

👃 Let's delve into the nuances of the Asian non-surgical rhinoplasty.

📐This refined procedure involves a precise use of dermal fillers to sculpt and contour the nose, with a specific focus on creating a higher bridge (as you can see above) and a more "pointy" tip!

⚠️ Executing this requires a careful understanding of facial anatomy in an area that poses higher risk for complications.

⭐️ The aim is not just enhancement but an authentic elevation of your features. We prioritize subtlety, ensuring that each injection contributes to a balanced and natural-looking result.

In my practice, precision is paramount.

Join me on this journey, where craftsmanship meets medical expertise.

UNDEREYE FILLER AFTER 1 YEAR

🥳 Results: Immediate but true results in 4 weeks
😱 Pain: Minimal
👌 Technique: Cannula
😴 Anesthesia: Topical
⏰ Time: 30 minutes
📅 Recovery: Most swelling subsides within 7 days, bruises can last longer up to 3 weeks
⚠️ Caution: Must be performed by experienced injector
💵 Cost: per treatment

Curious to see what undereye filler looks like 1 year after treatment?

This amazing patient came to see me last year looking tired and hollow. So using a cannula, we decided to use a soft filler to fill in areas of volume loss.

Undereye filler tends to last a long time: a year later, she's still happy with her results.

I often use this technique to address under-eye hollows, shadows, and tired appearances. If done well, there should be minimal bruising.

It's not just a cosmetic fix; it's a subtle art that rejuvenates and brightens.

Thinking about what I should post next...

Should we talk about regenerative medicine with exosomes? Is this the future of medical aesthetics?

Should we talk about collagen stimulating treatments like sculptra and radiesse?

Annnnnd I'm back! 😉💉

Enough travel pictures... I'm ready to dive right back into aesthetic medicine!

Last week has been busy already but the rush before the holidays means that it's time to stay focused! Make sure to book your appointment in advance in order to reserve your spot!

While the world of aesthetics is focused on exosomes and regenerative medicine, I brought back new knowledge and techniques from South Korea and Japan. Time to put these novel techniques to good use in Canada!

It's exciting to see how research and development has contributed to the field of aesthetic medicine. Lots of new treatments are coming out but I'm always weary of 🐃💩 treatments that provide minimal benefit with a heavy price tag.

Be careful of any product or service that's sold as brand new with only positives and no negatives 🚩🚩🚩
