I was then able to get the laser removal done right away, which was very convenient as I live about two hours away. Sandy not only removed the faded pigment, but the side effect is that now I think I look younger too! I'll be back to Luminesse for more skin treatments based on the service and results today. Highly recommended for anyone looking for exceptional results and great service.

I've been here a couple times to see Katie for sugaring. I have waxed in the past, but found out I…read morewas allergic to wax since most contain resin. So I decided to try sugaring. This little place is tucked away on the 2nd floor of the office/commercial buildings at centrepoint. Katie is really great at what she does, She makes the experience comfortable and quick. She is also a perfectionist which really counts in my books! I always leave happy with the service I received. Their prices are also competitive. I have to say that since I tried sugaring my hair is finer, less grows in and my skin is soft. This place also offers waxing and laser hair removal. I highly recommend seeing Katie for your waxing/ sugaring needs. She is awesome!

i DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS CLINIC…read more I've been attending this clinic for well over a year now because I purchased a package and had no other choice but to complete the treatments. Received laser hair removal and Tattoo removal. Laser hair removal worked really well however it is pricey and better deals are available on groupon. and no results with tattoo removal after 12 sessions. Very pricey, disorganized. Unaware of the "treatment'' being provided to the client (different settings aren't being charted, therefore the treatment is not consistent. Unable to speak to a manager when requested.

I was hesitant to try somewhere new after having gone to the same place for years, but came initially as part of a girl date with one of my friends. The salon is very bright and clean. I love pink, so they earn brownie points with me for the rose gold, white, and pink decor. Their staff is really personable and friendly. It's really my favourite part of the experience! Bella was amazing and really listened and "gets" what I'm asking for. I'm picky and indecisive, so that really says a lot and is important to me when it comes to nails or any beautification. I also really love that they have so many colour options and offer cool ideas that I wouldn't necessarily think of on my own. After my initial visit, I learned chrome doesn't work well for me- I think my nails are maybe too oily or my cuticles just didn't like it. Bella went above and beyond to find a solution, and really cared about me being happy with her work. I can't even say how valuable that is in this kind of industry- as a consumer it's certainly rare to find people who take so much pride in their work. It's a nice central location, in Sparks street. For convenience I just parked at the World Exchange Plaza (free on weekends!) but there is also street parking available if you know where to look. I would totally recommend this spot to a friend, I'm considering coming back to try the lash extensions or microblading, I love that it's all in one spot!

Although all the staff were friendly and my treatments were effective - I was treated very rudely…read moreby the owner/manager, Diana Murphy. I have never before been treated by a business owner, as I was by Diana. I wanted to warn consumers who may have gift certificates or coupons for this clinic that they may have very restricted terms. Diana had printed coupons / gift certificates for promotional usage, which did not indicate limitations or expiry, and when it came time for me to use the ones I had, she denied that I could get their full value. The bigger issue, however, was the lack of care she had for me as a person. Additionally, she did not seem to care or forsee that I would not continue to spend potentially thousands of dollars at her establishment. If you have to deal with the management at this establishment, beware.

Before I turned 40, I decided to get rid of my 18-year-old-silliness, the bane of my mother's…read moreexistence - my TATTOO. I did my research and found that it is a painful and expensive process. No matter, my arm will be skin-coloured in my wedding photos which will be taken next year. Anyhow, I found only two licensed laser therapists in Ottawa who remove tattoos, and after meeting Diana Murphy, I felt a connection right away - she made me feel comfortable about my decision, and her knowledge and passion for this therapy was evident right away. Even the receptionist who took my calls was warm and welcoming! So I found out that yes, it is painful, and yes, it's more expensive than getting the darned tattoo in the first place, but this is what I want. Diana really took the time to explain every step of the process and was honest about the good/bad/ugly about the process (feels like a burn the rest of the day after the process, it blisters, it itches, and you have to come back for several procedures to completely remove it). My first treatment was not fun - I'm a bit of a wimp I guess, but I thought I was going to faint. Diana knew I wasn't well, so she stopped, as often as I needed, and iced the spot, tried to take my mind off things by talking about my upcoming wedding... very sweet lady indeed!). My second appointment wasn't as painful, probably because Diana suggested trying to get through the treatment in one fell swoop (quicker, get over it - like ripping a bandaid off!). I only asked her to stop once, and she was super accommodating and never made me feel like I was a high-maintenance client (even though I think I am! ;-) I would highly recommend Diana for any of the treatments she provides. She is knowledgable, genuinely caring and nice, and I believe her prices are less than half of what the other place was charging. They also offer free consultations so feel free to just call and ask questions, or make an appointment to visit. You might realize that it is possible to get rid of that aweful tattoo on your -------(wherever ;-) LOL

The Ink Spot is an established tattoo shop on Bank St. that has been around for 13 years. The shop…read moreis small, but it is very clean and recently went through a renovation earlier this year. It is a little far from the downtown core, but that is part of the charm. I do not see The Ink Spot as a "street shop", like the shops that you see on Rideau St.. The Ink Spot has a regular and loyal clientele that keep returning, myself included. I have been getting tattooed exclusively at The Ink Spot for about 2 years now. I have been tattooed by Shawn, Pierre, and Greg. I have also been pierced a couple of times by Chris. Everyone at the shop are super professional and courteous.

I wanted to discuss a breast lift/reduction. I was placed in a room, fully clothed, no gown. The Dr came in and said "well I gotta see em". I stood there holding my shirt and my bra up while he fondled me. When he was done, he opened the door to leave and said "come back after you've had kids". That was all. I was violated and embarrassed. I am not looking for any retribution for this. I am warning others, find someone else. Someone who knows how to treat women in these delicate situations. #TIMESUP

First off, the medi spa is a doctors office with an actual doctor there! I have been to plenty that claim they have a doctor but you never see them. Secondly, the place is immaculately clean and beautifully decorated. Lastly and most importantly, the staff is incredible. I receive my treatments from Shannon. I can't say enough about her. She is knowledgeable and guides me into the right treatment. NOTHING is a sales pitch, it is really about achieving THE BEST YOU. I became a member so I see her once a month. Every month I receive a treatment and additional little extras. I have so far had IPL and the Venus Freeze and am incredibly happy with both. I know that some reviews of these treatments can be scary (burns, expensive waste of $) but I have to say this, I 100% believe your treatment results are as much about the technician as the technology. If not executed properly you will not have maximum results OR worse can have damage. The Best You has the best staff so you will get the best results! Thank you Shannon for being so awesome! I love my treatments and I love our visits! Sincerely Kristin H.
