The Cold, Hard Truth About Esthetic Technologies

You’ve heard me say it before and I’ll say it over and over and over again:

• No two medical spas are the same.
• Be wary of cheap clinics; you get what you pay for, and, in the end, maybe a little bit more than you bargained for.
• It’s important to compare not only pricing, but equipment and technologies, too.

Let’s break it down:

Did you know there are “medical spas” that haven’t upgraded their technology for decades? Or worse – they don’t maintain and service them when needed? We get it: new equipment and proper upkeep are very costly. However, it’s imperative to not only continue to be relevant but also to ensure safety. We have promised from day 1 to provide the best possible results for our clients and with that of course comes gold-standard equipment.

Like a luxury sports car, premium technology will get you where you need to be, versus a 20-year-old beat-up vehicle that’s put on too many miles. As a business owner, why would I spend quadruple the price on technologies if I didn’t have to?! It’s all about the results.

Speaking of results, it’s easy to get swayed by medical spas or clinics with unbelievably low prices combined with glittery, trendy treatments. Did you know many of these technologies/treatments aren’t actually Health Canada-approved?

Health Canada’s approval process ensures that both the medical devices and treatments used in medical spas meet strict safety and efficacy standards. This is for the client’s well-being and protection. It also helps to protect patients from potentially harmful practices and treatments.

Remember, you always get what you pay for and serious reactions or infections will cost you much more in the long run. Always look to the credibility of a medical spa and its practitioners.

If you have any questions about our standards of care, our technologies, or our education, please don’t hesitate to ask; we are transparent about our equipment and our treatments, and always want our clients to trust their experience at Freedom Medi-Spa.
