What it treats

What Microdermabrasion is for.

These are the concerns this treatment is a reasonable answer to. Each page explains the mechanism before it names a product.

Skin Texture & Scarring

How it works

The mechanism, plainly.

A controlled abrasive tip lifts the outermost layer of dead cells while suction draws them away. It is a surface treatment and it is honest about that: texture, dullness and clogged pores improve; a scar does not.

Because it works only at the surface, it pairs well with treatments that work deeper, and it is often the right first step for someone who wants to see what their skin looks like clean before committing to a course.

Who performs it

Who would treat you.

This treatment is performed by these practitioners, under physician supervision. You can request one of them when you book.

Narges
Founder & Medical Director
Narges founded Rose Beauty Clinic in 2019 after a decade in medical aesthetics, with the intention of building somewhere that treated conservatively and said no often enough to be trusted. She takes every new-patient consultation herself. Her practice is built around facial assessment first and product second: understanding which layer has changed before deciding what, if anything, should be added to it. She has a particular interest in biostimulators and in correcting overfilled faces, which is a slower and less glamorous kind of work than most of what the industry advertises. Narges oversees the clinic's medical protocols, its complication pathway and its laser safety programme, and she is the person on the after-hours number.

In their words

People who had Microdermabrasion.

Verbatim, first name and initial only, and never a five-star row — a rating is not a clinical outcome.

Only reason this is four stars is that parking around Bay and Bloor is a nightmare and I was late twice. They were gracious about it both times. The treatment itself has been excellent.

What to expect

The visit, step by step.

Your appointment is booked for 45 min. Here is where that time actually goes.

Assessment and cleanse
10 min
Skin examined under magnification, a look at what you are currently using at home, and a note of anything that has flared recently. Half of a good facial is deciding what not to do.
The active step
25–35 min
Exfoliation, extraction or needling depending on the plan, worked in sections so the practitioner can stop early on any area that is reacting more than expected.
Calm and protect
10 min
A calming mask, a barrier serum and SPF. Redness at this point is expected and is not a measure of how well the treatment worked.
Home routine
5 min
You leave with a written routine for the following week — usually simpler than what you arrived with. Actives go back in gradually, and sun protection goes on daily.
Next session
—
Skin work compounds. We book the next session before you leave so the interval is right, and we photograph at the same point in every course.

Care

Before, and afterwards.

Given to you in writing on the day as well. Aftercare instructions are never hidden behind a tooltip or a truncation.

Before your visit

Arrive with clean skin. Avoid blood thinners, alcohol and intense sun for 24–48h before treatment where applicable.

Aftercare

Avoid touching the area for 6 hours, no strenuous exercise for 24h, use SPF 50 daily. Contact us with any concerns.

Downtime: None. Mild pinkness for under an hour.

Safety

Tell us if any of this applies.

None of these is automatically a no. Several simply change the plan, the product or the timing — but we need to know before, not after.

You are pregnant, trying to conceive, or breastfeeding.
There is an active skin infection, cold sore or open wound at the treatment site.
You have had surgery, a vaccination or dental work in the area within the last two weeks.
You have taken isotretinoin in the last six months.
You have an active eczema, psoriasis or rosacea flare on the area.
You have waxed, had a peel or used a prescription retinoid on the area in the last week.
You scar thickly or form keloids.

Every treatment here is performed after a medical history review and, where the treatment requires one, a signed consent specific to that plan. Products are Health Canada authorised and tracked from supplier lot to your individual record.

Maryam

Clinic Manager & Aesthetician

Maryam is our clinic manager and senior medical aesthetician, and she is the person most of our clients see most often. Her focus is skin health over time rather than single appointments: building a routine someone will actually follow, sequencing in-clinic work around it, and being straightforward about the twelve weeks it takes before any of it can be judged. She runs our microneedling and medical facial programmes and looks after clients managing melasma, where patience matters more than intensity. She is also the person who will tell you, kindly, that your barrier is compromised and the answer this fortnight is to do less.

Leila

Laser Technician

Leila is our certified laser technician and runs the laser suite. She works across the full range of the Candela GentleMax Pro, and most of her craft is in wavelength and setting selection — choosing the Nd:YAG for deeper skin tones, patch testing before a course, and spacing sessions to the growth cycle of the area rather than to the calendar. She treats hair reduction, sun-induced pigmentation and skin rejuvenation. She is direct about what a laser cannot do, which is why our hair-reduction courses tend to finish rather than fizzle out.
