Beacon Dermatology offers a full range of services for both medical and cosmetic procedures like lasers, injectables, skin tightening, cool sculpting, facials, laser, and hair loss treatments, as well as urgent cancer clinics.

We think the referrals they get for medical procedures also justify how doctors trust and rely on their expertise to treat their patients or clients. Furthermore, this serves as enough proof of their skill and capabilities for holding complex treatments.

You can request an appointment by filling out the online booking forms found on their website. But do note that medical procedures generally range from two to six months of wait time, with a referral from your doctor.

However, it has come to our attention that there were instances of dermatologists coming in late, which led to the delay and postponement of client appointments.

On the bright side, we appreciate that they offer complimentary consultations, so clients can have enough grace time to be informed about their situation before proceeding with any treatment or procedure.

Established in 1984, Rejuvenation Dermatology Clinic continues to offer a full spectrum of specialised medical, surgical, cosmetic, and laser dermatology care to clients.

We like that they have a team of board-certified dermatologists qualified and skilled to perform different procedures and treatments to assure the best care for their clients.

Another thing we admire is their large facility which allows them to house their equipment and gives more space for their clients.

On the downside, we noted complaints regarding the long wait times, having clients wait for as long as one to four hours past their appointment. Most cases were due to prioritising and letting other clients go first despite their schedules.

We also found out that they focus on and follow appointment-based consultations, so walk-in clients aren’t guaranteed to be accommodated right away and would just end up wasting their time.

To help you secure an appointment, we suggest you use their online booking system and — to be sure — call for a confirmation of your schedule. 

Lastly, just a friendly tip: we encourage you to look out for their special offers, especially for package treatments or buy two get one free deals. We think this is beneficial since dermal procedures are relatively costly. 

Being in the industry for over 43 years, Remington Laser Dermatology Centre specialises in providing skin procedures like injectables, laser, and anti-aging treatments.

They focus on providing treatment plans tailored for each client to best meet their needs and maximise the cost of the entire treatment. We believe this personalisation avoids unnecessary procedures and shows the dermatologist’s honesty with their assessment. 

Furthermore, we noted that many clients were satisfied with their treatment results, commenting that they got their money’s worth.

But it is unfortunate that they have a limited service range compared to other clinics, so clients with more unique conditions may not find the treatment they need in this clinic.

Regardless, the actual performance of dermatologists was highly praised by their past and loyal clients. For instance, they were able to handle a 2-month-old baby with the best care and produce successful results.

Also, Remington Laser Dermatology only has two dermatologists on the team, which we think may cause availability issues in the long run, especially during peak seasons.

It may also lead to postponing or delaying appointments and affect the clients’ schedules.

Overall, this is a go-to dermatologist clinic if you want both your skin-related needs and a tight budget to be met.

Derm Laser and Esthetics is a well-established clinic in Calgary. For the past 14 years, it has been offering a full spectrum of cosmetic and laser dermatology.

We are impressed with the recognition they received for their work, such as being awarded the Gold winner for Best Dermatology Clinic by the readers of the Calgary Herald and Calgary Sun.

On that note, we also learned that they have served around 100,000 clients and patients since 2008. This impressive aspect shows their reputation within the dermatology industry and place amongst their competitors.

Full disclosure: some clients have encountered dermatologists or technicians that seem to lack experience and training since they don’t produce the desired results after the session.

For an in-depth discussion about their services and how they can help, we like that they offer complimentary consultations with one of their medically trained specialists to discuss your specific skincare requirements.

But a word of caution: we heard some instances involving the lack of thorough assessments during consultations and attempts to dismiss clients as quickly as possible.

Finally, we love that they offer financing options to help clients afford their needed treatments. With this, their services can be paid monthly or bi-weekly for two months or up to five years – making it lighter on the pocket!

Total Skincare Centre Dermapure specialises in providing clients with innovative non-surgical rejuvenation treatments offering natural results. This clinic is one of the major centres for skin care in Canada, with over 15 branches nationwide.

What we like most is their wide range of dermal treatments and procedures, from thermage to coolsculpting and neuromodulator injections to plasma treatments.

Notably, their services use advanced technology and equipment, which we believe gives them an upper hand against their competitors.

But we did hear that it can get difficult to get a hold of them for an initial assessment or consultation due to overbookings and scheduling errors. This inaccessibility also causes long wait times and appointment cancellations.

Although, we do appreciate that they offer no-obligation consultations to help you get started with your skin treatment journey, regardless if you proceed with their services or not.

We are also concerned after hearing reports of clients not getting the desired results after their treatments. Furthermore, there were complaints about the lack of care and urgency for after-service concerns or emergencies.

Regardless, they still have a large clientele and continue to attract new clients, thanks to doctor referrals and good feedback from prior clients.

Overall, this is a solid one-stop shop for any of your skin-related concerns — be it medical or cosmetic.
