Acne
What is it? Acne is something many of us have dealt with at some point—it’s when hair follicles get clogged with oil and dead skin cells, leading to those frustrating pimples, blackheads, and cysts. Unfortunately, some of us are left with scars as reminders. Acne scarring happens when inflamed blemishes damage the skin, leaving behind visible marks or indentations that can be tough to fade without the right treatment.
What causes it? Hormonal changes, excess oil production, and bacteria play a big role in acne development. If acne goes untreated or is severe, it can leave scars, especially if the skin’s healing process is disrupted.
At MG Aesthetics (Vaughan, ON), we offer:
Microneedling: Encourages collagen production, helping reduce the appearance of scars and smoothing your skin’s texture.
Chemical Peels: Gently exfoliates the skin to reduce both active acne and scarring, revealing a clearer complexion.
Laser Treatments (BBL, Moxi): These innovative laser therapies target active acne and scarring, leaving your skin rejuvenated.
Hyperpigmentation & Dark Spots
What is it? Hyperpigmentation is a common skin concern that shows up as darker patches on the skin, often due to an overproduction of melanin. Dark spots, whether from sun exposure or age, are a type of hyperpigmentation that can cause uneven skin tone.
What causes it? A variety of factors like sun exposure, hormonal changes, and acne can trigger melanin overproduction, leading to dark spots or patches.
MG Aesthetics (Vaughan, ON) offers:
BBL (BroadBand Light): Targets and breaks up pigmentation, leaving you with a more even skin tone.
Moxi: This gentle laser helps rejuvenate your skin, improving both texture and tone.
Chemical Peels: Removes the surface layer of the skin, reducing dark spots and promoting a smoother, more radiant complexion.
Pharmaceutical Grade Skincare: Personalized treatments to fade dark spots and maintain your skin’s health between appointments.
Fine Lines & Wrinkles
What is it? We all know that with time, fine lines and wrinkles start to make an appearance. These are common signs of aging, especially around areas like the eyes, mouth, and forehead as the skin loses its elasticity.
What causes it? Aging is a natural part of life, but sun exposure, smoking, and repetitive facial movements can accelerate the breakdown of collagen and elastin, making lines more visible.
At MG Aesthetics (Vaughan, ON), we recommend:
Botox/Dysport: Helps smooth out fine lines by temporarily relaxing the facial muscles.
Morpheus8: Combines microneedling and radiofrequency to tighten your skin and encourage collagen production.
Skin Boosters: Hydrate your skin from within, giving it a plumper, more youthful look.
Microneedling: Promotes collagen production, reducing the appearance of those fine lines.
Dermal Fillers: Restores lost volume, softening wrinkles and enhancing your facial contours.
Sun Damage
What is it? If you’ve spent a lot of time in the sun, you may notice wrinkles, dark spots, or rough patches—these are signs of sun damage, and unfortunately, they can age your skin prematurely.
What causes it? Prolonged exposure to the sun’s UV rays breaks down the collagen and elastin in your skin, leading to pigmentation issues, wrinkles, and even an increased risk of skin cancer.
At MG Aesthetics (Vaughan, ON), we offer:
BBL: A fantastic option for reducing sun damage by targeting pigmentation and revealing a clearer complexion.
Chemical Peels: Gently removes damaged skin layers, promoting the growth of fresh, healthy skin.
Moxi: A laser treatment designed to reduce the appearance of sun spots and improve the skin’s texture.
Pharmaceutical Grade Skincare: Helps protect and repair your skin from sun damage, ensuring long-term skin health.
Rosacea & Redness
What is it? Rosacea is a chronic skin condition that causes persistent redness, visible blood vessels, and sometimes small, red bumps on the face. It can be frustrating to manage, but with the right approach, it’s possible to calm it down.
What causes it? Common triggers include sun exposure, spicy foods, hot weather, stress, and alcohol. Genetics can also play a role in developing rosacea.
At MG Aesthetics (Vaughan, ON), we recommend:
BBL: Light therapy reduces redness and the appearance of visible blood vessels.
Pharmaceutical Grade Skincare: Specifically formulated to calm redness and support your skin’s barrier, helping to manage flare-ups.
Uneven Skin Texture & Pores
What is it? Uneven skin texture, often accompanied by large pores, can leave your skin looking rough or bumpy. This is typically due to a buildup of dead skin cells or a reduction in collagen.
What causes it? Aging, acne, sun damage, and environmental factors can all contribute to uneven skin texture and enlarged pores.
MG Aesthetics (Vaughan, ON) offers:
Morpheus8: Combines microneedling with radiofrequency to tighten your skin and improve texture.
Microneedling: Encourages collagen production, smoothing out your skin and reducing pore size.
Chemical Peels: Removes dead skin cells, leaving your skin refreshed and smoother.
Moxi: Improves skin texture and minimizes the appearance of pores with laser precision.
Facial Volume Loss
As we age, it’s natural for the face to lose some of its youthful fullness. You might notice a bit of sagging or a more sunken appearance. This is due to the loss of fat, elasticity, and collagen in the skin, which is a normal part of getting older. However, for many, this change can feel like it arrives too soon.
What causes it? Aging, significant weight changes, and a decline in collagen production all play a role in facial volume loss. Fortunately, there are ways to restore that youthful vibrance.
How MG Aesthetics can help:
Dermal Fillers: These offer a quick and effective way to restore lost volume, giving your face a fuller, more youthful glow.
Skin Boosters (SkinVive, Restylane, Redensity): For those seeking a subtler enhancement, these treatments provide hydration and gentle plumping for natural-looking results.
Sculptra & Radiesse: By stimulating collagen production, these treatments offer long-lasting volume that looks natural.
Lash Health
Do your lashes feel thin or brittle? You’re not alone—many people experience lash thinning over time due to aging or daily wear and tear. Taking care of your lashes is just as important as caring for the rest of your face.
What are the common causes? Aging, overuse of mascara, and lash extensions can weaken your lashes over time. Poor eye care also contributes to this.
MG Aesthetics offers:
Visia Lash Health Analysis: This personalized lash assessment helps us understand the current condition of your lashes and create a customized plan for healthier, fuller lashes. Because who doesn’t want strong, beautiful lashes?
Aging Hands
Your hands can tell a story, often revealing signs of aging before other areas of the body. Wrinkles, sun spots, and thinning skin are common signs that can make hands appear older than they feel.
What are the causes? Natural aging, sun exposure, and loss of collagen all contribute to these changes. But just like the face, the hands can be rejuvenated.
MG Aesthetics provides solutions:
Dermal Fillers: Smooth out wrinkles and restore volume for younger-looking hands.
BBL & Moxi: Treat pigmentation and sun damage, leaving your hands smooth and rejuvenated.
Microneedling & Chemical Peels: Stimulate collagen production and improve skin texture, bringing life back to aging hands.
Sculptra & Radiesse: These treatments boost collagen production for long-term improvement in volume and smoothness.
Double Chin (Fat Dissolving)
A double chin can be frustrating, especially when diet and exercise don’t seem to make a difference. Whether it’s due to genetics, weight changes, or simply the passage of time, submental fat can affect how you feel about your appearance.
What are the causes? A double chin is often caused by a mix of genetics, aging, or weight gain. It can be challenging to target through lifestyle changes alone, which is why many people seek additional help.
How MG Aesthetics can assist:
Belkyra: This non-surgical injectable treatment permanently dissolves fat cells under the chin, helping contour your jawline.
Morpheus: Combining microneedling with radiofrequency, Morpheus tightens skin while reducing fat, leaving you with a more sculpted look.
Lip Enhancement
Many people seek fuller lips as they age, or simply to enhance their natural shape. Whether you’re looking for a subtle boost or something a bit more noticeable, lip enhancement is a fantastic way to achieve that perfect pout.
What are the causes of volume loss? Aging naturally reduces lip volume, but sometimes it’s just about personal preference and wanting a bit more definition.
MG Aesthetics can help:
Lip Filler: Using hyaluronic acid-based fillers, we can add volume, smooth fine lines, and enhance the natural shape of your lips for a soft, plump appearance.
Skin Boosters (SkinVive, Restylane, Redensity): If you want a more subtle look, these treatments hydrate and improve lip texture for a naturally refreshed effect.
Dark Circles
Dark circles can make you look tired or older than you feel. They’re a common concern, but that doesn’t make them any less frustrating. Many people struggle with this, and we understand how important it is to feel confident in your appearance.
What causes dark circles? There’s a mix of factors at play, from genetics to lifestyle choices like poor sleep or dehydration. Aging can also make dark circles more pronounced as the skin becomes thinner.
MG Aesthetics offers:
PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma): Using your body’s natural growth factors, PRP helps improve skin tone under the eyes, reducing dark circles and brightening the area.
Dermal Fillers: Fillers can add volume to the under-eye area, smoothing out hollows and diminishing the appearance of dark shadows.
Hair Loss
Hair loss can be a tough challenge, affecting your confidence and overall sense of well-being. Whether it’s gradual thinning or more significant hair loss, we’re here to offer solutions that make a real difference.
What are the causes? Hair loss happens for many reasons—genetics, hormonal changes, stress, or even nutritional deficiencies. Each person’s experience is unique, and we’re dedicated to finding the right treatment for you.
MG Aesthetics can help with:
Microneedling: This treatment stimulates the scalp, improving circulation and encouraging hair regrowth by boosting collagen production.
PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma): By utilizing your body’s own growth factors, PRP can help stimulate hair follicles, promoting thicker, healthier hair over time.
Body Hair
Unwanted body hair can feel like an ongoing battle. While traditional methods like shaving or waxing offer temporary relief, they’re often time-consuming and frustrating. If you’re looking for a longer-lasting solution, we’ve got you covered.
What causes unwanted body hair? Genetics, hormones, and hair growth cycles all contribute to how much body hair you have. For many, traditional hair removal methods aren’t enough.
MG Aesthetics offers:
Laser Hair Removal: This treatment provides a long-term solution, using light energy to target and destroy hair follicles. Say goodbye to the hassle of constant shaving or waxing!
Masseter Reduction & Jaw Clenching
Do you ever feel tension in your jaw, or notice that your lower face appears bulkier than you’d like? This might be due to overuse of the masseter muscles, which can also cause discomfort and a square-shaped jawline.
What causes jaw clenching? Stress and anxiety often lead to jaw clenching, especially during sleep. Over time, this can cause the masseter muscles to enlarge, changing the shape of your face.
MG Aesthetics can help:
Botox/Dysport for Masseter Muscle Reduction: This treatment relaxes the masseter muscles, slimming the jawline and reducing tension. It also alleviates discomfort from jaw clenching, offering both cosmetic and functional benefits.
Excessive Sweating (Hyperhidrosis)
Excessive sweating can be incredibly frustrating and embarrassing, especially when it happens without any physical exertion. If you feel like you’re constantly battling sweat, there’s a solution.
What causes hyperhidrosis? Hyperhidrosis is often due to genetics or an overactive nervous system. It can also be triggered by stress, heat, or certain medical conditions, causing discomfort and affecting your confidence.
MG Aesthetics can help with:
Botox for Hyperhidrosis: Botox works by blocking the nerves that activate sweat glands, reducing excessive sweating for several months at a time, giving you one less thing to worry about.
Neck Aging
The neck is one of the first areas to show signs of aging, with sagging skin, fine lines, and visible bands. But just because the neck is prone to aging doesn’t mean you can’t do something about it.
What causes neck aging? As we get older, collagen and elastin break down, leading to looser skin. Sun exposure and gravity also contribute, and the neck’s delicate skin is particularly vulnerable to these effects.
MG Aesthetics offers:
Sculptra & Radiesse: These treatments stimulate collagen production, tightening and lifting the skin for a smoother, firmer neck.
Moxi & Morpheus8: A combination of laser and microneedling treatments that enhance skin tone, reduce wrinkles, and improve firmness.
Dermal Fillers: Adds volume to smooth fine lines and wrinkles for a more youthful appearance.
Botox/Dysport: These injections help reduce neck bands and relax wrinkles, giving you a smoother, younger-looking neck.
Weak Jawline/Chin
A weak jawline or recessed chin can make the face look less defined. Enhancing this area not only balances facial proportions but can also improve your overall appearance and confidence.
What causes a weak jawline or chin? This is often genetic, but aging also plays a role as bone density and tissue volume decrease over time.
MG Aesthetics can help:
Radiesse & Dermal Fillers: These fillers add definition and structure, creating a more balanced and contoured jawline and chin.
Botox/Dysport: For those looking to soften a square jawline or enhance chin contour, this can help create a sleeker appearance.
Broken Capillaries
If you’ve noticed small red or purple lines on your face, you’re likely dealing with broken capillaries. These can make the skin appear uneven, but the good news is that treatment is available.
What causes broken capillaries? They’re often caused by sun exposure, genetics, or skin conditions like rosacea. Aging also weakens capillary walls, making them more likely to become visible on the surface of the skin.
MG Aesthetics offers:
BBL (BroadBand Light): This non-invasive treatment targets and reduces broken capillaries, restoring an even skin tone and minimizing redness.
