I felt compelled to write a review for SKIN Kamloops after my treatments had kicked in. I first would like to say that I have been getting Botox and filler since my mid 20's and I have never felt more comfortable than I did with Carleen and Dr. Chris Brink. Carleen was able to answer every question I had and give advice on what would benefit me the best. I am 33 years old, I just finished law school and I have a 21 month old. So, to say I am tired is an understatement. Unfortunately, this exhaustion had manifested itself through my complexion. My skin looked tired, dry, and sunken. It lacked that natural glow I once enjoyed.
The treatment suggested was Skinvive, basically it puts a tiny amount of hyaluronic acid in the top layer of your skin, and this rejuvenates and hydrates your skin and gives you that more youthful naturally plump, glowy look. And the most incredible part, other than how it makes your skin look so amazing. It last 9 months, AND has preventative qualities i.e., actually keeps your skin from aging. The procedure itself may sound daunting as it requires being poked around 80 times with a tiny needle, I can confirm that Dr. Brink's technique is so superior and is so dialled in that you barely notice what is happening. I think it took him less than 10 minutes. I do have a fairly high pain tolerance (like most women, let's be honest) and I would compare the pain level as similar to getting Botox done. I definitely did not need any freezing.
I also asked for a little pick me up Botox treatment, just in my upper face: forehead, crow's feet, a little brow lift and Dr. Brink did not disappoint. The placement was perfect, I now have that smooth forehead without looking overdone.
I am thrilled with my outcome, and I definitely will be a repeat client! read more
