The non-invasive skin treatments market is massive, ever-evolving and demand is growing. According to Grand View Research, the worldwide non-invasive aesthetic treatment market was valued at $61.2 billion USD in 2022 and is expected to grow by 15.4% annually from 2023 to 2030. There are many factors driving the growth of non-invasive skin treatments, though chief among them is thought to be increased availability.

The Vital Role of Health Canada Approval To Get the Results You Pay For We’d like to explain the significance of selecting a practitioner who uses Health Canada approved microneedling devices as well as address a lesser-known concern - the quality gap between different microneedling devices, including stamping devices and devices that don’t even puncture the skin.

What is microneedling? We’re frequently asked this question, so we thought we’d write a short post describing the basics of this effective skin treatment. Are you looking for a safe anti-aging treatment, with little to no downtime, that will surprise you with fantastic results? Microneedling, also known as Collagen Induction Therapy, improves the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, acne scars, and the texture changes that occur with age, as well as the overall tone and brightness of your skin.

Did you know that in Canada there is no regulatory body for the microblading or permanent makeup industry? This means that absolutely anyone can perform these services AND teach them, with little to no training or education and no permanent makeup or microblading certification. With lack of regulation there has been an exponential increase in quick courses and poor training. Some courses are even offered online, with no hands-on training at all, and many are only 2-3 days long.

Microfeathering is a variation on microblading that involves less strokes, less colour intensity and finer blades to create an undone, natural, feathered brow. The term was originally coined by L.A based brow expert Kristie Streicher, who helps give clients lush, full and natural-looking brows. A-listers like Gwyneth Paltrow, Adele, and Lorde get this procedure.
